Key Capabilities
Smarty Validation for Claude Code
Use the `validate_intl_address` tool inside a script to run validation on international addresses. You can pipe this output directly into other shell commands or container services. This makes it perfect for CI/CD pipelines that need to automatically check data integrity before deployment.
Extracting Data via Claude Code
A script needs to process a batch of raw text files? Run `extract_addresses` headless. The MCP Server pulls all physical addresses from the input stream, making them available for further processing. This capability is vital for automated data ingestion jobs that run on a schedule.
Checking Zip Codes with Claude Code
Verify mailing codes by calling `verify_zip_code`. This command takes a ZIP code and outputs the associated city and state. You can write this check into any shell script or cron job. It's reliable, non-GUI validation that runs perfectly in a Docker container.
