@addresspenny/mcp

Model Context Protocol server for Addresspenny address validation. Lets Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent validate postal addresses, bulk-clean lists, and extract addresses from freeform text.

Tools

• validate_address — validate a single postal address. Returns the standardized address and validation metadata. Consumes 1 credit.
• bulk_validate — validate up to 100 addresses in one call. Consumes 1 credit per address.
• parse_and_validate — extract every postal address from unstructured text (chats, transcripts, scraped pages) and validate each one. Consumes 1 credit per extracted and validated address.

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or newer
• An Addresspenny account with an API token and the token's account ID — create both at addresspenny.com

Configuration

The server reads three environment variables:

Variable	Required	Default	Notes
ADDRESSPENNY_API_KEY	yes	—	API token from Addresspenny
ADDRESSPENNY_ACCOUNT_ID	yes	—	Prefixed account ID (e.g. acct_abc123)
ADDRESSPENNY_API_URL	no	https://addresspenny.com/api/v1	Override for self-hosted or staging

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or the equivalent on your OS:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "addresspenny": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@addresspenny/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ADDRESSPENNY_API_KEY": "your-api-token",
        "ADDRESSPENNY_ACCOUNT_ID": "acct_your_account_id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. The tools appear under the tools icon in the chat input.

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "addresspenny": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@addresspenny/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ADDRESSPENNY_API_KEY": "your-api-token",
        "ADDRESSPENNY_ACCOUNT_ID": "acct_your_account_id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Local development

npm install
npm run build
ADDRESSPENNY_API_KEY=... ADDRESSPENNY_ACCOUNT_ID=... node build/index.js

The server speaks MCP over stdio. It is not meant to be invoked directly — point an MCP client at it using the config above.
