Overview
The Outerview MCP server gives any MCP-compatible AI agent one tool for searching the physical world: places, objects, conditions, and interactive captures.
Install
bash
npm install -g @outerview/mcp
Configure your MCP host
Run outerview-mcp as a stdio server and pass your API key in its environment:
json
{
"mcpServers": {
"outerview": {
"command": "outerview-mcp",
"env": { "OUTERVIEW_API_KEY": "ov_your_key" }
}
}
}Give the key only to the MCP server process.
Tool: stream_world
| Input | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
query | Yes | What to find in real-world visual data |
limit | No | Number of results, capped by your plan |
position | No | { "points": [{ "latitude", "longitude" }, ...] }. Set one or more points to narrow discovery to the areas around them |
interactive | No | true returns only interactive results |
The tool returns the raw Stream JSON: GeoJSON features with dates, locations, and result properties.
Notes
Video access requires a Pro or Scale key.
Set OUTERVIEW_BASE_URL to use a compatible development endpoint. By default the server calls https://api.outerview.ai.
