Bakom Mcp
by malkreidecommunityv2.0.3
An MCP server that connects AI assistants to Swiss BAKOM open data APIs for queries about broadband availability, mobile coverage, antenna locations, licensed broadcasters, media datasets, and telecom statistics. It provides read-only access to public aggregated data from geo.admin.ch, opendata.swiss, and rtvdb.ofcomnet.ch without requiring authentication.
From the registry: BAKOM telecommunications and media open data

Prerequisites
- requiredInstall Python 3.11+Python 3.11 or newer is required to run the server.https://www.python.org/downloads/
- requiredInstall uv or pipThe recommended launch method uses uvx from uv; pip is an alternative for installing the package.https://docs.astral.sh/uv/
- requiredInternet access to public BAKOM data sourcesThe server queries live public APIs at geo.admin.ch, opendata.swiss, and rtvdb.ofcomnet.ch. No API keys are required.
Install in your client
Paste into the AI you're chatting with — it will figure out the rest
Please install the `bakom-mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).
Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Install Python 3.11+** — Python 3.11 or newer is required to run the server. (https://www.python.org/downloads/)
- **Install uv or pip** — The recommended launch method uses uvx from uv; pip is an alternative for installing the package. (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)
- **Internet access to public BAKOM data sources** — The server queries live public APIs at geo.admin.ch, opendata.swiss, and rtvdb.ofcomnet.ch. No API keys are required.
Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `uvx`
- args: ["bakom-mcp"]
Note: The README also documents an HTTP mode started with `python -m bakom_mcp.server --http`, serving at `/mcp`. Optional HTTP environment variables are `BAKOM_MCP_HOST` (bind address), `BAKOM_MCP_PORT` (port), and `BAKOM_MCP_CORS_ORIGINS` (comma-separated allowed origins). No environment variables are required for the default stdio configuration.
Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.Note: The README also documents an HTTP mode started with `python -m bakom_mcp.server --http`, serving at `/mcp`.
