MiningBridge Intelligence — Claude Code MCP server: setup
Explore critical-mineral trade, supply exposure and Indian patent research through an MCP server. Connect it when you need sourced market and sourcing information.
claude mcp add --transport http intel https://intel.miningbridge.in/api/mcpWhat MiningBridge Intelligence does
MiningBridge Intelligence lets an assistant inspect US trade flows, estimate supply concentration and search a counterparty directory. It can also assemble sourcing briefs and find evidence on production, processing and trade measures. Its tools are read-only.
The CM-PATRA group covers patent families for minerals on India’s critical-minerals list and relates them to processing stages and funded research. Trade and sourcing tools cover 15 commodities with monthly trade data. The free tier provides a daily allowance and summaries; Pro unlocks full series and numeric risk scores.
MiningBridge hosts the service, so there is no local server process to run. Sign in with OAuth 2.1 or provide an API key as a Bearer token. In Claude Code, connect it with claude mcp add --transport http intel https://intel.miningbridge.in/api/mcp.
What it helps with
- compare US imports and exports for a mineral
- check supply concentration and China exposure
- find counterparties by country or keyword
- compare Indian mineral patents with funded research
Example prompts for the agent
- Assess cobalt supply concentration and describe the China exposure.
- Find the US trade position for lithium carbonate and identify its lead partner.
- Compare Indian mineral patent families with funded R&D projects.
