DLD MCP Server

Local stdio MCP server for querying Dubai property sales transactions and rental contracts through OfferBrief.

The server uses MCP Python SDK v2 and supports the MCP 2026-07-28 protocol.

Installation

Run the published package directly:

uvx dld-mcp

Setup

Claude Code:

claude mcp add dld -- uvx dld-mcp

Claude Desktop:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dld": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["dld-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Add that entry to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS.

Tool

query_dld accepts:

bedrooms is supported only for sales: DLD's current rental feed has no bedroom data. date_from cannot be later than date_to. The default window is the last 12 months.

Examples:

query_dld(area="Marina")
query_dld(area="Palm", property_type="villa", date_from="2024-01-01", metric="count")
query_dld(area="Downtown", type="rentals", property_type="apartment")
query_dld(area="JBR", metric="list", limit=10)

Invalid arguments fail before an API request. OfferBrief's own message is passed through for rejected queries and empty results. HTTP, rate limit, timeout, connection, and malformed response failures set MCP isError and return structured errors with a message and status code. Results include both structured content and JSON text for client compatibility. The tool declares read-only, non-destructive, idempotent access to an external data source.

OfferBrief dependency and privacy

Each tool call sends its query parameters to https://offerbrief.com/api/query. No credentials are used. The package does not log query parameters or response bodies.

Results reflect the data available from OfferBrief when the call is made. This package does not claim a refresh schedule or transaction count.
