Mapbox for AI agents

Mapbox provides mapping, geocoding, navigation, and location data that developers embed into apps and websites for routing, delivery, and store-locator features. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

What agents do in Mapbox.

01

Geocode an address

Convert a street address into map coordinates for use in a delivery or store-locator feature.

02

Get directions between points

Retrieve turn-by-turn directions between two locations for a routing feature, a read-only request with no side effects.

03

Check a route's isochrone

Pull an isochrone showing travel-time reach from a point to plan a service area.

02 · ACTIONS

32 Mapbox actions, graded by risk.

Every Mapbox action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Mapbox in three steps.

  1. 01Your users connect MapboxThey add their Mapbox api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “map Matching (POST)” can wait for the user to approve.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Mapbox through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('mapbox', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // post_map_matching
  destructive: 'deny',  
})

# Claude Code: the same connection, one URL
$ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Mapbox connects.

Users add their Mapbox api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Mapbox connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Mapbox and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Mapbox with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Mapbox to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Mapbox actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Mapbox?

Users add their Mapbox api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Mapbox actions can my agent take?

32 in total: 20 read, 12 write and 0 destructive, such as “map Matching (POST)”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Mapbox?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Mapbox policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Mapbox too?

Yes. The same Mapbox connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
