Add to your project’s.mcp.json (or the equivalent MCP config for your client):
OpenAI Agents SDK
Google Gemini (via LangChain)
Vercel AI SDK
Custom agents
Any MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP transport can connect. Point it athttps://mcp.footstep.ai and pass your API key in the x-api-key header.
The MCP server also accepts the standard
Authorization: Bearer <key> form, so MCP SDKs that default to Bearer authentication work without configuration changes. x-api-key remains the recommended header.Reading responses
Tool results are returned in the MCPstructuredContent field as parsed JSON — no JSON.parse step required. See response shape for the full envelope and the error code reference.
Tuning what you get back
Every renderer-aware tool defaults to rich responses — geometry, render-ready GeoJSON layers, and full result sets are all included. Token-conscious LLM agents passcompact: true to suppress geometry and render envelopes; renderer-aware clients keep the defaults. See response defaults & controls.
