Compass Daas

Compass DaaS MCP

MCP server for Compass DaaS. It exposes three read-only restaurant tools (search, enrich, decide fit) over the Model Context Protocol and calls the Compass REST API with your API key. Coverage is the 50 US states and Washington, DC.

Compass is not an allergen or safety service.

This package replaces @compass-food/mcp, which is no longer updated. Change @compass-food/mcp to @compassfoodtech/mcp in your MCP client config.

Quick Start

npx -y @compassfoodtech/mcp

Set COMPASS_API_KEY before starting the server:

export COMPASS_API_KEY="<paste the key from signup>"

For staging or local testing, set:

export COMPASS_BASE_URL=https://daas-api-veganmapai-1a8b7.a.run.app

Tools

compass_search

Wraps POST /v1/search. The mode tool argument is sent to the REST API as the X-Compass-Mode header. Pass a dish in dish and the destination as place or location, not both. Each result carries vegan_dining (up to five relevant vegan dishes and menu_collected_at). A dish query with no restaurant that has the dish returns result_status: "no_match" and, when one exists within 50 km, nearest_match. Set include_cuisine_matches to also list same-cuisine restaurants without the dish, marked cuisine_only.

{
  "query": "ramen",
  "dish": "ramen",
  "place": { "country_code": "US", "region": "NY", "city": "Brooklyn" },
  "user_profile": { "diet": "strict_vegan" },
  "limit": 5
}

{
  "query": "vegan ramen in Brooklyn",
  "user_profile": {
    "diet": "strict_vegan",
    "exclude_cross_contamination": true
  },
  "location": {
    "lat": 40.6782,
    "lng": -73.9442,
    "radius_m": 5000
  },
  "limit": 10,
  "mode": "rich"
}

compass_enrich_restaurant

Wraps POST /v1/enrich/restaurant. Use compass_id or google_place_id for an exact lookup (one of them, not both), name plus address, or name plus place. matched is true only when identity_status is resolved; otherwise match_candidates lists possible restaurants.

{
  "name": "Buddha Bodai",
  "address": "5 Mott St, New York, NY"
}

{
  "name": "Blossom",
  "place": { "country_code": "US", "region": "NY", "city": "New York" },
  "dish": "seitan"
}

compass_decide_fit

Wraps POST /v1/decision/restaurant-fit. The mode tool argument is sent to the REST API as the X-Compass-Mode header. Send exactly one of compass_id or google_place_id. vegan_options is an alias of strict_vegan; set fully_vegan_only to accept only fully vegan restaurants. vegetarian is judged from vegan evidence; other accepted diets return unknown with DIET_NOT_SUPPORTED. exclude_cross_contamination defaults to false. Send true when unknown shared-prep evidence should return unknown. When a google_place_id maps to no restaurant or to several, the response has resolution and coverage instead of a decision.

{
  "compass_id": "rest_xyz789",
  "user_profile": {
    "diet": "strict_vegan"
  },
  "mode": "rich"
}

API Key Resolution

The server checks:

1. COMPASS_API_KEY
2. ~/.compass/config.json

Config file:

{
  "api_key": "<paste the key from signup>",
  "base_url": "https://api.compassfoodtechnologies.com"
}

Privacy

This package sends tool calls only to the configured Compass API base URL. It does not send secondary usage data.
