What is the OpenCage MCP Server?
Give your AI agent precise geolocation superpowers with OpenCage Geocoding. Convert any address into coordinates, reverse-geocode GPS pins into readable addresses, and apply advanced filters — all through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Forward Geocoding — Convert any address or place name into exact latitude/longitude coordinates
- Reverse Geocoding — Turn GPS coordinates into structured street addresses with timezone and sun data
- Country Filtering — Restrict results to a specific country (ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2) to avoid ambiguous city matches
- Language Bias — Request results localized in any IETF language code (e.g., pt-BR, fr-FR)
- Confidence Scoring — Filter geocoding results by minimum confidence level (1–10) for delivery-grade accuracy
- Bounding Box — Constrain results to a geographic rectangle for targeted regional searches
- Privacy Mode — Run geocoding queries without OpenCage logging them, for sensitive addresses
- Duplicate Control — Return or suppress duplicate results for data validation workflows
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your OpenCage API Key
- Start geocoding from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Logistics teams — validate delivery addresses before dispatching drivers to avoid failed deliveries
- Data engineers — enrich datasets with lat/lng coordinates and timezone metadata at scale
- Privacy-conscious apps — geocode sensitive addresses without leaving a trace in third-party logs

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings OpenCage data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is the geocoding — can I use it for delivery routing?
OpenCage returns a confidence score from 1 to 10 for each result. Use the high-confidence filter (min_confidence=8 or higher) to get delivery-grade accuracy. Combined with country filtering, you can eliminate ambiguous matches and get coordinates reliable enough for last-mile dispatch.
What does privacy mode actually do?
When you enable no_record=1, OpenCage processes your query but doesn't log it in their cache or analytics. The result is identical, but the query leaves no trace on their servers. Ideal for geocoding patient addresses, legal documents, or any PII-sensitive data.
Can I geocode in multiple languages — like getting results in Portuguese for a Brazilian address?
Yes. Use the language bias tool with any IETF language code (pt-BR, es-MX, fr-FR, etc.) and OpenCage returns the address components translated to that locale. Perfect for building multilingual apps or standardizing address formats across regions.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
