About Pointr MCP Server
Bring deep indoor location intelligence directly to your AI operations using the Pointr network. This MCP integration securely bridges your LLM to complex structural databases plotting multi-floor layouts, indoor geo-fencing, and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon networks. Instead of navigating complicated dashboards to audit facility paths, simply instruct your local Agent to parse physical building parameters perfectly.
Claude Code registers Pointr as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 10 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where Pointr data drives decisions without human intervention.
What you can do
- Facility Exploration — Understand global deployments natively. Run
list_buildingsandlist_levelsto mathematically visualize vertical architectures and floor limits. - Precision Wayfinding — Query active Point of Interest objects. The agent leverages
search_poisto find specific gates/stores, and dynamically invokescalculate_pathpredicting multi-floor walking paths avoiding structural walls. - Infrastructure Auditing — Ask the AI to evaluate BLE hardware mesh footprints using the
list_beaconsutility, verifying precisely where physical network sensors reside inside map geometries. - Geo-Fence Parsing — Interrogate proactive indoor trigger zones.
list_geofencesbrings back complex logical polygons mapping where local alerts fire globally.
The Pointr MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Claude Code in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
