 "summary": "Filter the geocoding list to open, active, local servers that need no API key.",
 "who": "A researcher or analyst who needs address lookups inside an AI assistant but cannot send data to a commercial API or manage keys.",
 "problem": "The catalog has 18 geocoding entries with mixed deployment, access, and activity status, so picking one by hand takes time.",
 "outcome": "A short list of local, open, active geocoding servers that fit a no-key or offline requirement.",
 "steps": [
  "Open the README and go to the Geocoding & place search table.",
  "Keep rows where Access is open and Health is active, using the legend in the README to read the icons.",
  "Check Lang / Deployment for local to confirm the server runs on your machine.",
  "Pick GridPin MCP for offline forward and reverse geocoding from local files for BR, DE, ES, FR, IT, NL, or RS, or PlaceRoot for Overture Maps places with no API key.",
  "Open the linked repository for the chosen server and follow its own setup instructions."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the catalog in the sparkgeo/geo-mcp-servers repo, list the Geocoding & place search servers that have Access open, Health active, and Lang / Deployment local, then return the three best matches for an offline geocoding need in <country>. Verify each returned row against its table entry before you answer.",
