Voraussetzungen

Die vollständige Setup-Anleitung ist in den Connector eingebaut (im Store sichtbar, wenn du den Connector auswählst). Benötigte Umgebungsvariablen für diesen Connector:

(none — public API)

Schritt 1 — Zugangsdaten holen

org).

Setup: NO API KEY REQUIRED. Just install the connector. The base URL is https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org.

HOWEVER — usage policy you MUST respect (otherwise you'll get banned):

  1. Max 1 request per second per IP. The connector does NOT throttle for you — your agent must self-limit. For bulk usage, run a self-hosted Nominatim or use a paid Nominatim host.
  2. User-Agent header REQUIRED — every request must identify you. The connector pins User-Agent: AnythingMCP (https://anythingmcp.com) automatically.
  3. No heavy bulk geocoding — if you need >100 requests/hour, switch to MapTiler / OpenCage / Mapbox / Google.

Schritt 2 — Adapter installieren

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Schritt 3 — Connector in Cursor hinzufügen

Cursor liest MCP-Server aus ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Füge diesen Eintrag hinzu:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Hole deinen MCP API Key aus AnythingMCP → Profil → MCP API Keys → Neuer Key.
  2. Speichern und Cursor neu starten.
  3. Cursor → Einstellungen → MCP öffnen und prüfen, ob Nominatim (OpenStreetMap) als "Connected" gelistet ist.
  4. Chatten — alle Nominatim (OpenStreetMap)-Tools sind aufrufbar.
