QGIS MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes QGIS capabilities to AI agents. Supports both headless mode (stdio) and live QGIS desktop integration (SSE).

Features

  • 23 tools covering project management, layer inspection, spatial queries, styling, and map export

  • Headless mode — standalone process using qgis_process-style QGIS session

  • Desktop mode — live connection to a running QGIS instance via SSE/HTTP

  • Zero-friction setup — uses system QGIS Python bindings, no extra dependencies
