What it does
A small Python MCP server built with FastMCP on Google's googlemaps client library. It offers six tools: directions, distance between places, geocoding, finding a place, nearby place search and place details. You supply a Google Maps Platform API key with the Directions, Distance Matrix, Geocoding and Places APIs enabled, and the author points out that Maps API usage costs money beyond the free tier. It runs over stdio by default and can also be started with HTTP transports. The README shows how to attach it to an agent built with Google's Agent Development Kit, plus a sample agent prompt.
