}MCP server (for AI assistants)
Add mamoie to Claude or any MCP-compatible client. Your assistant can then answer "what is the disaster risk of this address?" from official Japanese data. Add the following to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mamoie": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mamoie.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}Endpoint: https://mamoie.com/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Tool: check_home_disaster_risk(address, lang?) — pass lang: "en" for an English summary.
