Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP server for signed global shipping and commodity data: oil trade flows, tanker fleet, sanctions, emissions and chokepoint intelligence.

What you can do
  • Query bilateral oil trade flows, top exporters and a country's trade partners
  • Look up tanker fleet records by vessel name, IMO, owner or type, and fleet breakdowns by vessel type
  • Check vessels and entities against OFAC sanctions, and find sanctioned vessels that called at EU/EEA ports
  • Retrieve oil price benchmarks (WTI, Brent) and EU MRV vessel emissions data
  • Get chokepoint intelligence for Hormuz, Suez, Malacca and Bab el-Mandeb, including AIS snapshots
  • Check database statistics and per-dataset freshness before trusting a figure
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs primary-source shipping, energy-trade or sanctions context: trade-flow questions, vessel and fleet lookups, sanctions screening, emissions reporting, or chokepoint risk. The freshness tools help decide whether a figure is current enough to rely on.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no packages, environment variables or headers are declared, and no authentication is declared. Network access to the endpoint is required.
Before you install
The server reports signed, origin-verified records, but some datasets are only source-linked, so check the freshness and status tools before relying on a figure. Sanctions and chokepoint results are informational and should not be treated as compliance determinations. No credentials are requested.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Maritime 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/global.rootz.ship%2Fmaritime/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

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

README

Rootz MCP Servers

Registry entries for the Rootz family of AI-native, origin-verified data services, published to the official Model Context Protocol registry.

Each server exposes a live MCP endpoint (https://<service>.rootz.global/mcp) that AI agents can call for verified, primary-source data — companies, US politics, vehicles, shipping, rentals, and timeshares. Where a dataset is cryptographically signed, its records verify to a signed origin; where it is not, that is stated plainly.

Publishing is automated via GitHub Actions OIDC — see .github/workflows/publish.yml. The io.github.rootz-global/* namespace is granted by the org identity; no secrets or DNS records are used.

Principles: Origin not trust · Measurements not trust · Primary sources over fragments.

Tools

13

shipping_oil_trade

Query bilateral oil trade flows (EIA US imports/exports + Eurostat). Accepts structured filters OR a free-text `query` (matches country/notes). NOTE: this is import/export flow data, NOT chokepoint throughput — for Hormuz transit volumes use shipping_chokepoint.

Parameterslimitqueryperiodpartnerproductreporter

shipping_sanctions

Check vessel/entity against OFAC sanctions

Parameterstypequeryrequired

shipping_fleet

Query tanker fleet database. Accepts structured filters OR a free-text `query` (matches vessel name, IMO, owner, or type).

Parameterslimitquerysearchcompanyvessel_type

shipping_oil_prices

Get oil price benchmarks (WTI, Brent)

Parametersdaysbenchmark

shipping_status

Database statistics plus per-dataset freshness: how recently each dataset was refreshed by our pipeline, how old its newest record is, and whether it is ok / lagging / stale / empty. Call this to decide how much to trust anything else this server returns.

Takes no parameters.

shipping_freshness

Per-dataset freshness only: pipeline refresh age vs expected cadence, newest record age, source, and status (ok / lagging / stale / empty / unknown). Use before relying on a figure that must be current.

Takes no parameters.

shipping_top_exporters

Top oil exporting countries by value/volume (a ranking — no query needed). Optional `product` or `query` recognizes a product keyword (crude/refined/lng/coal/iron_ore).

Parameterslimitqueryproduct

shipping_country_flows

Trade partners for a specific country (who they export to / import from). Pass the country as `country` or `query`.

Parameterslimitquerycountrydirection

shipping_vessel_types

Fleet breakdown by vessel type

Takes no parameters.

shipping_emissions

Query EU MRV vessel emissions data — CO2, fuel consumption, time at sea for 22,543 vessels (2018-2024). Search by IMO, ship type, or year — or a free-text `query` (7-digit = IMO, else ship type/name).

Parametersimoyearlimitqueryship_type

shipping_sanctioned_at_eu

Find sanctioned vessels that called at EU/EEA ports. Cross-references OFAC sanctions with EU MRV emissions data (verifiable IMO-level identity). Filter by year or a free-text `query` (sanctions program e.g. "Iran"/"Russia", flag, or vessel name).

Parametersyearlimitquery

shipping_chokepoint

Maritime chokepoint intelligence for Hormuz, Suez, Malacca, or Bab el-Mandeb. Returns authoritative EIA baseline throughput (barrels/day, % of global), a live AIS snapshot (vessels/tankers/moving/stationary) for the chokepoint, sanctioned vessels currently detected there, and dark-fleet behavioural signals (loitering + AIS gaps). This is the tool for "how is Hormuz doing".

Parametersquerychokepoint

shipping_doc_intel

Query the shipping document intelligence layer: eBL platform adoption (12 platforms), MLETR country adoption (23 countries, 13 enacted), document fraud cases ($11.3B), DCSA standards (10), industry stats (26 metrics). The state of shipping document digitization.

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.
