inaturalist_resolve_name
shallowio.github.cyanheads/inaturalist-mcp-server · Verify this server
Resolve a common or scientific name to a taxon id, or a place, project, or observer name to its id. Returns ranked candidates carrying the identifiers every other tool takes. A miss is a result rather than a failure: found comes back false with guidance naming why. Taxon lookup matches a name PREFIX, not words inside a name, so "monarch butterfly" misses where "monarch" hits.
