Quickstart
Get your first MCP call working in 3 minutes.
Before you start: You'll need an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any custom MCP client) and a John Deere developer account at dev.deere.com. FieldMCP does not currently provide a sandbox — you'll connect to your real Deere developer org.
1. Create an Account
Sign up at the FieldMCP Dashboard. You'll get a 14-day free trial with 17,000 requests per month per connected organization.
2. Connect Your MCP Client
Point your MCP client at the FieldMCP gateway. It handles OAuth discovery and client registration automatically — no manual setup required.
Add to Settings → MCP Servers, or add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fieldmcp": {
"url": "https://api.fieldmcp.com/mcp"
}
}
}On first use, Claude Desktop will prompt you to log into John Deere and authorize access to your farm data.
3. Make Your First Call
Ask your AI assistant to list the farmer's organizations:
List my John Deere organizations
This calls deere_list_resources and returns the farmer's John Deere data:
{
"error": false,
"data": {
"organizations": [
{
"id": "org-12345",
"name": "Chen Family Farms",
"type": "customer"
}
],
"farms": [],
"fields": [],
"totalCounts": {
"organizations": 1,
"farms": 4,
"fields": 12,
"equipment": 8
}
},
"dataQuality": "COMPLETE"
}That's it. Your MCP client now has access to the farmer's John Deere data through FieldMCP's 11 tools.
Try This Next
Ask your assistant to run a field diagnosis:
Diagnose my North 40 corn field for the 2026 crop year
This calls intel_diagnose_field with the farmer's yield history, soil data, and operations. You'll get back prioritized actions with evidence-backed recommendations from 140+ agronomic diagnostic rules.
