Open Charge Map MCP

This MCP server enables AI agents to search for EV charging stations globally using the Open Charge Map registry. It supports finding stations by location, connector type, and network, retrieving full station details including operator and cost information, resolving reference IDs for filters, and accessing community reliability check-ins to verify charger status.
