NOVTRIQ Engineering Intelligence MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server exposing 27 engineering intelligence tools for data centres and critical facilities, building energy and carbon, UK building regulations, Eurocode structural and cost, cyber and certification, and UAE compliance.

This repository is the open, self-hostable catalogue face of the NOVTRIQ MCP. It advertises the full tool set so any MCP client or aggregator can discover it, and it forwards tool execution to the authoritative hosted endpoint. The engineering calculators themselves run on the hosted service.

• Hosted endpoint: https://api.novtriq.tech/mcp (streamable-http, keyless free tier)
• Transport: JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP
• Tools: 27
• Provider: NOVTRIQ, UK engineering intelligence

Use the hosted server directly

Most clients should point straight at the hosted endpoint. Example MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "novtriq-engineering": {
      "url": "https://api.novtriq.tech/mcp"
    }
  }
}

The free tier is keyless (5 requests/minute, 500/month per address). Higher tiers and API keys are available at https://novtriq.tech/eaas.

Run this catalogue server locally

pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080

Or with Docker:

docker build -t novtriq-engineering-mcp .
docker run -p 8080:8080 novtriq-engineering-mcp

Then:

curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8080/mcp \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

initialize, tools/list, resources/list and prompts/list are answered locally. tools/call is forwarded to the hosted endpoint (override with the NOVTRIQ_MCP_UPSTREAM environment variable).
