Administrative area containment for a point

How to use it

Project documentation lists admin_lookup.containing_areas for the MCP Geo MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
