The MCP server proxies requests to our live API. No API key required for the free tier (50 queries/month).

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

claude_desktop_config.json JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prospector-energy": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "prospector-energy-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json:

.mcp.json JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prospector-energy": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "prospector-energy-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to Cursor Settings > MCP Servers:

~/.cursor/mcp.json JSON 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prospector-energy": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "prospector-energy-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

pip install

Install and run the server directly:

Terminal bash 
# Install from PyPI
pip install prospector-energy-mcp

# Or install from GitHub
pip install git+https://github.com/\
  OwenCoonahan/prospector-energy-mcp.git

# Run the server
prospector-energy-mcp

Custom Agent (Python)

Use the MCP Python SDK to connect programmatically:

agent.py Python 
# pip install mcp
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.stdio import (
    stdio_client, StdioServerParameters
)

server = StdioServerParameters(
    command="uvx",
    args=["prospector-energy-mcp"],
)

async with stdio_client(server) as (r, w):
    async with ClientSession(r, w) as s:
        await s.initialize()
        result = await s.call_tool(
            "search_projects",
            {"state": "TX",
             "type": "Solar"}
        )

With API Key

Set your key as an environment variable for higher limits:

Environment bash 
# Set API key for auth
export PROSPECTOR_API_KEY="pk_your_key"

# Or custom API URL
export PROSPECTOR_API_URL=\
  "https://your-instance.com"

# Then run as normal
