EVE Online Traffic MCP Server

⚠️ Beta Version Notice

This project is currently in beta development. Features may be incomplete, unstable, or subject to significant changes. Use at your own discretion and expect potential breaking changes in future updates.

A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for EVE Online traffic, navigation, and system information using both the official ESI API and SDE data.

Features

This MCP server provides comprehensive tools for EVE Online data access:

Name ↔ ID Conversion

• Solar System Name to ID: Convert solar system names to IDs for route calculation
• Station Name to ID: Convert station names to IDs for destination planning
• Region Name to ID: Convert region names to IDs for regional analysis
• Universal Name to ID: Convert any EVE Online entity names to IDs (systems, stations, regions, corporations, alliances, etc.)

System Information & Analysis

• Solar System Info: Get comprehensive system information from both ESI and SDE APIs
• Stargate Info: Get stargate connections and detailed information
• System Connection Map: Generate connection maps showing stargate links between systems

Data Sources

• ESI API: Real-time data from the official EVE Online API
• SDE API: Static data export for comprehensive universe information
• Automatic Name Resolution: All IDs are automatically resolved to names (e.g., "30000142 (Jita)")
• Data Integration: Combines ESI and SDE data for maximum information coverage

API Dependencies

1. EVE Swagger Interface (ESI)

URL: https://esi.evetech.net/meta/openapi-3.0.json

ESIは、EVE Onlineの公式APIです。プレイヤーデータ、キャラクター情報、コーポレーション情報、マーケットデータなど、ゲーム内の様々な情報にアクセスできます。

2. Static Data Export (SDE) - Jita.Space

URL: https://sde.jita.space/latest/swagger.json

ベースURL: https://sde.jita.space/latest

SDE（Static Data Export）は、EVE Onlineのゲーム内静的データを提供するサードパーティAPIです。jita.spaceによって提供されており、アイテム情報、星系データ、NPC情報などの静的データにアクセスできます。

3. EVE-KILL API

URL: https://eve-kill.com/_openapi.json

ベースURL: https://eve-kill.com

EVE-KILLは、EVE Onlineのキルメール追跡と分析を行うモダンなアプリケーションです。アライアンス、キャラクター、コーポレーション、バトル、キルメール、キャンペーンなどの包括的なデータにアクセスできるAPIを提供しています。

Start the server in development mode with interactive CLI:

npm run dev

Production Mode

Start the server for production use:

Usage Notes

Language Recommendations for LLM Instructions

When providing instructions to LLMs connected to this MCP server, we recommend using English names for EVE Online entities (solar systems, stations, regions, corporations, etc.) for optimal results. The server's name resolution system is primarily designed around English entity names, and using English ensures better accuracy and consistency in data retrieval.

Examples:

• ✅ Use: "Jita", "Amarr", "The Forge"
• ❌ Avoid: Localized names in other languages
