  • AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass

Unverified: 1 category

A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm.

MCP tools · 15 exposed · ~1,964 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

What the Camp Map Pass adds over the free map (offline maps, the full scouting list, work-week picks, the full hunting view, more for AI assistants), its prices (CA$55 a year or CA$5 a month), direct purchase links, and how the user gives the pass to an assistant. Also says whether the current request carries a valid pass. Covers offline use, more spots, work-week picks, hunting details and upgrading.

Install

How do I install the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server?

Cosmic's Camp Map is a hosted endpoint at https://camp.cosmicotter.ca/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

Common questions

What is the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server?

Cosmic's Camp Map is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.brendoncampbell/camp-map. Can I camp here, and will I have signal? Land status, signal, weather and fires in Canada and the US. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://camp.cosmicotter.ca/mcp).

Is the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server safe to use?

Cosmic's Camp Map scores 67 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server expose?

Cosmic's Camp Map exposes 15 tools: check_spot, find_spots, plan_trip, work_week, hunting_spots, and 10 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,964 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Cosmic's Camp Map without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Cosmic's Camp Map MCP server still maintained?

Cosmic's Camp Map is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 18 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
