What You'll Need

Set these up before or after installing:

Sets the minimum log level for output (e.g., 'debug', 'info', 'warn').Optional

Environment variable: MCP_LOG_LEVEL

User-Agent sent on every request to api.inaturalist.org. Defaults to the package name, its version, and the repository URL. Keep a contact URL in any override — the published terms ask for identifiable clients.Optional

Environment variable: INATURALIST_USER_AGENT

Minimum spacing between outbound request starts, in milliseconds. The default holds the sustained rate near 54 requests per minute, under the 60 the upstream asks for and well under its 100 ceiling.Optional

Environment variable: INATURALIST_MIN_REQUEST_INTERVAL_MS

Maximum outbound requests in flight. Separate from the start interval: spacing bounds the sustained rate, this bounds the burst so one slow call does not stall the lane.Optional

Environment variable: INATURALIST_MAX_CONCURRENT_REQUESTS

Outbound requests allowed per UTC day, counted in-process. The default sits under the 10,000 per day the upstream asks for, and exhaustion fails loudly rather than degrading silently.Optional

Environment variable: INATURALIST_DAILY_REQUEST_BUDGET

The hostname for the HTTP server.Optional

Environment variable: MCP_HTTP_HOST

The port to run the HTTP server on.Optional

Environment variable: MCP_HTTP_PORT

The endpoint path for the MCP server.Optional

Environment variable: MCP_HTTP_ENDPOINT_PATH

Authentication mode to use: 'none', 'jwt', or 'oauth'.Optional

Environment variable: MCP_AUTH_MODE
