What's in it
- Data offered docs-verified
- item search (feature services, web maps, layers, dashboards) · item metadata, tags and descriptions · layer schemas (fields, domains, subtypes, relationships, renderer) · feature query with attribute and spatial filters · feature add, update and delete in hosted feature layers · user and group management · GP task inspection and execution · map image export · portal admin (system info, licences, usage statistics)
- Formats docs-verified
- JPG · PNG · GIF · PDF · SVG
- Access docs-verified
- Open source, MIT licence (per catalogue metadata). Requires an ArcGIS Enterprise Portal or ArcGIS Online account: username/password in a .env file (recommended) or OAuth2 app credentials. The catalogue auth field says no credentials are documented, which conflicts with the DOCS.
Useful for
- Use cases llm-inferred
- Portal content inventory and stale-content governance audit before handover of a project GIS deliverable · Broken-reference and service health check on web maps and layers before issuing them to field or client teams · Export of project web map layers as PNG/PDF for consultancy report figures · Attribute query of hosted feature layers (e.g. asset or site records) for data QA
- Audience llm-inferred
- GIS analysts · GIS and portal administrators · environmental and civils consultancy staff who manage ArcGIS Online or Enterprise content
Limitations
- Constraints llm-inferred
- Independent open-source project, not affiliated with Esri (per DOCS disclaimer) · Requires portal credentials; catalogue auth field conflicts with DOCS · Many tools are write or destructive (delete, share, offboard_user, batch operations); read-only mode via MCP_READ_ONLY=true should be set for exploratory use · Admin tools such as portal_health require administrator privileges · Publishing behaviour is version-specific (fixes for ArcGIS Enterprise 12.x in v1.14.0) · Self-signed Enterprise certificates need MCP_TLS_VERIFY=false, which weakens TLS verification
