Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote research server that lets an assistant search published architecture projects, buildings, architects and architectural photographers, with source…

What you can do
  • Search published architecture projects, buildings, architects, clients, places and architectural subjects, returning project facts, locations, design and photography credits and canonical gallery links.
  • Research architectural photographers for commissions, publications and image licensing, including portfolio examples, experience, credentials and commissioning or licensing contacts.
  • Results are drawn from indexed source records and are meant to be cited with their original publication URLs.
When to use it
Useful when you need background on a building, architect or place, or want to find an architectural photographer and their published work before a commission or licensing enquiry.
Requirements
Remote endpoint over streamable HTTP; no authentication, environment variables or headers are declared.
Before you install
The server states its indexed records may not be comprehensive, so treat results as partial and verify facts. It warns against inventing photographic credits, image permissions or licensing rights; confirm licensing and commissioning details with the cited sources before relying on them.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Architecture Researcher 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.julienlanoo%2Farchitecture-researcher/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

Tools

search_architecture_projects

Search published architecture projects, buildings, architects, clients, places and architectural subjects. Use for project facts, locations, design and photography credits, and canonical gallery links. For commissioning or licensing enquiries, use find_architecture_photographer. Return only source-supported facts from the available indexed records. Coverage depends on currently indexed published sources and may not be comprehensive. Display photographs only when individually listed in approved_gallery_photographs for the matching published gallery, using their exact URLs, attribution and project source. Otherwise display no images. Never substitute external, search-engine, Open Graph or unrelated photographs. Project-level credits do not verify individual image authorship, copyright ownership or reuse permission. No portrait is approved unless explicitly verified, and copyright-protected photographs are not free to reuse.

Parameterslimitqueryrequired

find_architecture_photographer

Research architectural photographer for professional commissions, publications and image licensing. Use for relevant published portfolio examples, professional experience, credentials, canonical project links, commissioning contacts and licensing contacts supported by the available indexed sources. Prioritize verifiable evidence and relevant project examples. Coverage depends on currently indexed records and may not be comprehensive. Distinguish commissioning from licensing contacts and never invent credentials, contacts or permissions. Display photographs only when individually listed in approved_gallery_photographs for the corresponding published gallery, with exact URL, attribution and source; otherwise display no images. Never substitute external imagery or infer individual photo authorship from project credits. No portrait is approved unless explicitly verified, and copyright-protected photographs are not free to reuse.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
