Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server for Cook County / Chicago property data: resolve addresses to parcel PINs and pull parcel records, dossiers and comparable sales.

What you can do
Look up Chicago / Cook County addresses and resolve them to ranked parcel PIN candidates with match scores and quality flags, plus a free sample of every response shape to validate first. Retrieve parcel records by 10- or 14-digit PIN, including address, class, township and neighborhood fields. Pull a full property dossier for a PIN: parcel basics, recorded sales and deed history, building permits and property-tax and assessment history. Find recent arm's-length comparable sales in the same assessor neighborhood and property class as a given PIN.
When to use it
Useful for property research, valuation or due-diligence work on Cook County and Chicago addresses, where an assistant needs parcel identifiers, sales and permit history, assessments or comparable sales without leaving the conversation.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no local package, account, API key or header is declared. The first 100 calls per day to the parcel, dossier and comparable-sales tools are free; beyond that, payment is requested per call via x402 in USDC, which requires a crypto wallet.
Before you install
After the daily free allowance resets at 00:00 UTC, the parcel, dossier and comparable-sales tools charge per call (0.01, 0.03 and 0.10 USDC respectively) through x402, so a wallet and spending can be involved. Address searches and the sample are unlimited and free. Data covers Cook County, Illinois only and is returned from a third-party API.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Cook County / Chicago Property Data (free tier, no wallet needed) in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.ingest0r.api%2Fcook-county-property-data/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Free sample of the Chicago / Cook County property data ($0)

Call this FIRST to validate the data structure before anything else.

search_chicago_property_by_address

Chicago / Cook County address to parcel PIN (always free)

ALWAYS FREE, unlimited, no wallet and no signup. Resolve a Cook County / Chicago street address (full or partial) to its parcel PIN(s) — ranked candidates with address, city, ZIP, a match score and a match_quality flag. A trailing city/state/ZIP is fine ('1 E 113th St, Chicago, IL 60628'). CHECK match_quality: 'exact' is certain, 'likely' shares the house number, and 'weak' means NO candidate matched the house number — do not rely on a weak hit. Call this FIRST when you have an address but not a PIN, then pass a returned pin to get_cook_county_parcel / get_cook_county_property_dossier / find_chicago_comparable_sales. Coverage: Cook County, Illinois — Chicago plus 100+ suburbs including Evanston, Oak Park, Cicero and Skokie.

get_cook_county_parcel

Cook County parcel record (100 free a day)

FREE for your first 100 calls each day — no wallet, no signup, just call it ($0.01 per call via x402/USDC only after that daily allowance, which resets at 00:00 UTC). Cook County, IL parcel record for a 10- or 14-digit PIN. Returns: pin, prop_address, prop_city, prop_zip, class, township_name, nbhd_code, municipality, ward, police_district, census_tract_geoid, school_elementary_district, school_secondary_district, walk_score_cmap, airport_noise_dnl, lat, lon, tax_year.

get_cook_county_property_dossier

Cook County property dossier (100 free a day)

FREE for your first 100 calls each day — no wallet, no signup, just call it ($0.03 per call via x402/USDC only after that daily allowance, which resets at 00:00 UTC). Full Cook County / Chicago property dossier for a PIN: parcel basics, recorded sales & deed history, building permits, property-tax assessment history, and neighborhood / ward / school / walkability context — the one-call due-diligence record. Permits are LINKED to the PIN here (the raw permit open-data has no PIN; links are derived by address + geo match), so this is a finished record you cannot reproduce with raw open-data queries. Note assessment values are ASSESSED values (~10% of market for most residential classes), not market prices — see assessment_note in the response.

find_chicago_comparable_sales

Chicago comparable sales / AVM (100 free a day)

FREE for your first 100 calls each day — no wallet, no signup, just call it ($0.10 per call via x402/USDC only after that daily allowance, which resets at 00:00 UTC). Recent arm's-length comparable sales (comps) in the same Cook County assessor neighborhood and property class as the given PIN, each with its distance in metres from the subject, plus an implied low/median/high price range — a derived, lightweight automated valuation (AVM) you won't get from a raw open-data query. Thin markets widen automatically and the response reports which matching rung was used. Comps are NOT normalized for building size or age.
