Help connect the public data behind energy infrastructure reviews
Open-source MCP servers, one per federal system, so an AI assistant can answer a site question and name the agency behind the answer.
14 federal agencies 23 servers 56 tools 32 map layers
How it works
You name a project area
Each MCP server answers one question from a public system
- Who manages this land? Is any of it a wilderness study area or a military range?
USGS PAD-US - Which geothermal leases are held here, and which are producing?BLM MLRS
- Which transmission rights-of-way cross the area, and which are still pending?BLM MLRS
- Is any of the site in a flood zone?FEMA NFHL
- Which listed species, critical habitat, and wetlands are here?USFWS IPaC
- Where exactly have those species been observed, not just their range?GBIF
- Which EPA screening flags trip within a mile: Superfund, RCRA, impaired waters?EPA NEPAssist
- How steep and how well-drained is the ground?USDA NRCS soils
- Does the area overlap reservation or Tribal trust lands?Census TIGERweb
- Which historic places are listed nearby?NPS National Register
- What schedule did energy projects in this state get on the Permitting Dashboard?Permitting Council
- What do the geothermal leasing rules say, and when did they last change?eCFR
- Which rulemakings and executive orders changed them, and what did each do?Federal Register
One assistant, many agency systems. Every answer names where it came from.
Where do you come in?
Two ways in. Pick yours.
Either way, it all speaks the Model Context Protocol, an open standard.
What the toolkit represents today
Every result names its source agency and says where coverage stops.
- Public records and land status
- BLM case and land-status records for geothermal, mineral, and oil-and-gas activity; federal regulations and rulemakings; EPA brownfields records.
- Spatial context
- Jurisdictions, land-use plans, protected areas, species and habitat, wetlands and flood hazards, cultural and Tribal context, air quality, nearby communities.
- Maps and auditable results
- Interactive project-area maps and downloadable spatial data, with source agencies named and gaps flagged.
Agency marks identify upstream data provenance only. They do not imply endorsement.
Take part
Come work with us
Three ways to take part.
-
Tell us what is missing
A dataset, a server, a fix, or plain feedback.
-
Use it on a real project
Run it on your project area and tell us what held up.
-
Help build the community
Hackathons, workshops, and the conversations between them.
Every server here began as someone's question.
