And MCP makes the experience even better. With Opencage MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer. ## Also integrate Opencage with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/claude-cowork) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/opencage/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get: - CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling. - Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot. - Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need. ## Connect Opencage to Codex ### How to install Opencage MCP in Codex ### Run the setup command Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex. ```bash codex mcp add composio --url https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is the Opencage MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Opencage MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Opencage account. It provides structured and secure access to global geocoding services, so your agent can perform actions like translating addresses to coordinates, finding locations from GPS, converting to GeoJSON, and handling multiple output formats on your behalf. - Forward geocoding for addresses: Instantly convert human-readable addresses into precise latitude and longitude coordinates for mapping or logistics tasks. - Reverse geocoding coordinates: Give your agent raw GPS coordinates and receive the nearest human-readable address or location details. - GeoJSON feature generation: Request GeoJSON output for geocoding results, making it easy to visualize or integrate locations in mapping applications. - Flexible output formats: Get geocoding data in XML or JSONP formats, ensuring compatibility with a variety of development workflows and systems. - Seamless integration with open data sources: Tap into comprehensive and up-to-date location information sourced from open datasets for global coverage. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_FORWARD` | Forward Geocode Address | Tool to convert a human-readable address into geographic coordinates. Use when you need to retrieve latitude and longitude from an address. | | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_GEOJSON` | Geocode to GeoJSON | Geocode addresses or coordinates and return results in GeoJSON FeatureCollection format. Use this tool when you need: - Geographic data in standard GeoJSON format for mapping applications - Forward geocoding: convert addresses to coordinates - Reverse geocoding: convert coordinates to addresses The response includes coordinates, formatted addresses, and optional annotations like timezone, currency, and sun times for each location. | | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_GEOJSONP` | Geocode with JSONP | Geocode an address and return results wrapped in a JavaScript callback function (JSONP format). Use this tool when you need geocoding results that can be directly consumed by JavaScript through a callback function, typically for cross-domain AJAX requests in browser environments. The response wraps standard geocoding JSON with your specified callback function name. Example response: myCallback({"results":[{"geometry":{"lat":52.5,"lng":13.4},"formatted":"Berlin, Germany",...}],...}) | | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_GOOGLE_V3_JSON` | Geocode Google v3 JSON | Tool to perform forward geocoding and return results in Google Geocoding API v3 compatible JSON format. Use when you need Google v3 compatible output for legacy integrations. Note: This is a legacy format that may be discontinued; using the standard JSON format is recommended. | | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_REVERSE` | Reverse Geocode Coordinates | Tool to convert coordinates to a human-readable address. Use when you have latitude and longitude and need a readable location. | | `OPENCAGE_GEOCODE_XML` | Geocode XML | Geocode a location query and return results in XML format. Supports both forward geocoding (address to coordinates) and reverse geocoding (coordinates to address). Use this when you need XML-formatted output instead of JSON. | | `OPENCAGE_PING_OPENCAGE` | Check API Health | Tool to check API health and connectivity. Returns 'pong' if the API is reachable. Use when you need to verify that the OpenCage API is accessible and operational. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Opencage MCP server provides comprehensive access to Opencage operations through Composio.

With a standalone Opencage MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Opencage tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Opencage and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Codex? Yes, you can. Codex fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Opencage tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Opencage while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Opencage scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Opencage data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
