What is the Radar MCP Server?
Integrate Radar with an AI agent to bring enterprise-level location intelligence directly to your workflow. This server allows the AI to perform complex spatial lookups and geographical computations on your behalf.
What you can do
- Geocoding & Reverse Geocoding — Convert readable addresses into exact coordinates (latitude/longitude), or vice versa.
- Route Calculation — Determine distance and driving times between multiple locations, predicting transit metrics efficiently.
- Geofencing & Context — Check whether specific coordinates fall within defined geographical boundaries (e.g., regions, stores, administrative borders).
- IP Geolocation — Locate a user or device strictly based on an IP address.
How it works
- Enable the server integration.
- Add your Radar Publishable API Key.
- Instruct your AI to plan coordinates, route distances, or geofence user locations on demand.
Who is this for?
- Software Engineers — Resolve coordinate bugs, fetch boundary parameters, or quickly verify distance calculations in ongoing backend projects.
- Logistics Planners — Assess routing strategies and times without leaving the IDE workspace.
- Data Analysts — Quickly validate raw IP inputs into actionable regions or postal codes.

Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my Radar API key?
Log into your Radar dashboard. Under 'Project Settings' or the dedicated API keys section, look for your 'Publishable Key'. This is the standard read-only key used for client integrations and MCP operations.
Should I use the Publishable Key or the Secret Key?
Always use the Publishable Key for this MCP server instance if possible, as the operations (geocoding, routing, lookup) are typically safe read-only spatial actions.
Can it calculate multi-stop routes like a delivery app?
Yes, but indirectly through distance comparisons. The basic routing API fetches times from Point A to Point B. The AI can chain these requests together to establish an estimated schedule contextually in your chat.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
