construction-cost-data

MCP serverDev tools

Public construction cost data for Japan and the U.S., each row with its source URL and licence.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use construction-cost-data to search jccdb items

Install construction-cost-data

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user construction-cost-data 'https://ccdb.horizonshield.dev/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://ccdb.horizonshield.dev/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=construction-cost-data&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2NjZGIuaG9yaXpvbnNoaWVsZC5kZXYvbWNwIn0=

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT

    https://ccdb.horizonshield.dev/mcp

    In Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

  • Codex

    codex mcp add construction-cost-data --url 'https://ccdb.horizonshield.dev/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login construction-cost-data if the server asks for an account.

From the project's README

As published by ogasurfproject-jpg/horizon-shield in README.md. This repository publishes several servers, so only the opening is shown here.

Verifiable construction estimate auditing for AI agents

Don't trust the estimate. Verify it.

An MCP server that lets AI agents check whether a Japanese construction or renovation estimate is fair, against open data, and returns a result anyone can verify against Bitcoin (OpenTimestamps). No account, no key.
