Key Capabilities
Headless Geocoding and Timezones
The `geocode_address` tool takes raw terminal input and spits out rooftop-level coordinates with S8 precision. Claude Code runs this headless, piping the latitude and longitude into your deployment scripts or cron jobs. Timezone math ruins shell scripts. The `get_timezone` tool returns the exact IANA identifier and UTC offset for those coordinates. Your CI/CD pipeline gets accurate daylight saving time status without installing bloated node modules.
Automate Audits with Precisely MCP
The `verify_address` endpoint standardizes messy database records against USPS and Royal Mail datasets. You can write a bash script that loops through user records and flags invalid addresses automatically. Billing audits require exact tax rates. Claude Code queries `get_local_tax` to grab combined state, county, and special district percentages. It outputs the raw JSON so you can pipe it into jq for quick terminal analysis.
CLI Property and Risk Lookups
The `get_property_info` tool fetches US county assessor data like lot size and assessed value. You execute one command in your SSH session, and Claude Code dumps the property attributes straight to standard output. Environmental and security checks work the same way. The agent hits `enrich_flood_risk` for FEMA base elevations and `enrich_crime_risk` for normalized indices. You get instant risk profiles without ever leaving the command line.
