Find places in OpenStreetMap, preview POI nodes and four-sided polygons, and review road edits from your local GPX surveys
through an MCP-compatible assistant.

**Alpha, review-first:** nothing is edited automatically. Road changes need an
authenticated OSM account, an exact preview and separate confirmation.
The safe profile also supports [reviewed POI node creation](docs/reviewed-node-creation.md)
with duplicate inspection and exact coordinate/tag readback. False matches can
be resolved with evidence in `review_node_create_duplicates`; its new proposal
revision still requires separate user confirmation before upload.
For a POI with known boundaries, [reviewed four-sided polygons](docs/reviewed-poi-polygons.md)
create a closed OSM way with tags on the area and can explicitly replace an
isolated POI node in the same upload.

## Fastest start

You need **Python 3.10+**, [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/), and an MCP client
that supports local stdio servers. No repository clone, Docker, API key or
Valhalla installation is needed for place search.

Add this server to your client's MCP configuration (merge it with any existing
servers), then reconnect:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "osm-edit": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["osm-edit-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OSM_TOOL_PROFILE": "discovery"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
