Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only MCP server that gives an assistant 2026 city-level renovation cost ranges, comparisons, methodology and citation guidance.

What you can do
  • List the markets and project types covered by the dataset
  • Retrieve one city and project type planning range
  • Compare the same project across several cities
  • Return methodology, limitations, commercial disclosure and a canonical citation
  • All tools are read-only and work from a bundled snapshot without network calls
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to discuss U.S. renovation budget planning ranges for a specific city and project type, or compare costs between cities, and should present them with sources and caveats.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, either via npx from the GitHub package or as the published OCI container image (linux/amd64 and linux/arm64). No accounts, API keys, environment variables or network access are needed at tool-call time.
Before you install
Figures are 2026 total-project planning ranges in U.S. dollars, not quotes, appraisals or predictions, and should not be used to infer ROI, contractor quality or outcomes. The publisher operates a contractor-matching service, so the data is publisher-maintained rather than independently validated; cite year, city, project type and full range, and check the canonical index for updates.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Renology Renovation Cost Data in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

README

Renology Renovation Cost Data MCP

Read-only Model Context Protocol server for the versioned Renology 2026 city-level renovation cost dataset.

Verified in the official MCP Registry as io.github.asafichaki/renology-cost-data.

It lets compatible AI assistants list available markets and project types, retrieve one city/project planning range, compare the same project across cities, and return methodology, limitations, commercial disclosure, and a canonical citation. Runtime is local and closed-world: the published snapshot is bundled and no network request is made when a tool is called.

Quick start

bash
npx -y github:asafichaki/renology-cost-data-mcp

MCP client configuration:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "renology-cost-data": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "github:asafichaki/renology-cost-data-mcp"]    }  }}

Public OCI image:

bash
docker run --rm -i ghcr.io/asafichaki/renology-cost-data-mcp:1.0.1

The image is published for both linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 and carries the ownership annotation required by the official MCP Registry.

Tools

  • list_markets
  • list_project_types
  • get_city_cost_range
  • compare_city_costs
  • get_methodology_and_citation

All tools declare readOnlyHint: true, destructiveHint: false, idempotentHint: true, and openWorldHint: false.

Interpretation rules

  • Values are 2026 total-project U.S. dollar planning ranges, not quotes, appraisals, guarantees, final prices, or predictions.
  • Cite the year, city, project type, and complete low-to-high range.
  • Check the canonical Renology Cost Index for updates before publication.
  • Do not infer ROI, contractor quality, statistical representativeness, or project outcomes.
  • Renology publishes renovation guidance and operates a contractor-matching service. This is publisher-maintained infrastructure, not independent validation.

Validate

bash
npm cinpm run checkdocker build -t renology-cost-data-mcp .

50% of the applicable checks met

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.
