Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@@cropgraph/mcpwhat can I plant in zone 8b with a maritime climate?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Asset | Count | Notes |
Crop calendar | 5,006 entries | 14 categories (vegetable, herb, fruit, flower, cover-crop, root, legume, grain, mushroom, native, medicinal, fiber, forage, sprout). Frost-anchored windows; 120 entries carry climate modifiers across 6 climate types |
Companion relationships | 1,004 | 510 beneficial, 95 antagonist, 12 mechanism categories |
Growing degree days | 120 models | Cultivar-specific GDD ranges, base temperatures, NOAA Climate Normals harvest prediction |
Rotation families | 12 | Nightshades, brassicas, cucurbits, alliums, legumes, umbellifers, grasses, amaranthaceae, composites, mints, malvaceae, miscellaneous. Every calendar slug mapped. |
Succession chains | 33 | Greens, roots, legumes, brassicas, cucurbits, herbs, flowers, cover crops. Frost-anchored phases with per-climate notes. |
Pest/disease associations | 506 | Crop-to-pest edges with diagnostic symptoms, organic management, prevention, and regions. OMRI-listed management only. |
Beneficial insects | 200 entries | Predators (62), parasitoids (40), pollinators (50), decomposers (29), microbial controls (22). Prey and attractant cross-references; composite "now what?" intelligence layer with hand-authored notes for the top 40 pest slugs. |
USDA hardiness zones | 40,283 ZIPs | PRISM 2023 + waldoj/frostline centroids, offline lookup |
Climate classifier | 6 types | Maritime, mediterranean, continental, humid subtropical, arid, semi-arid |

- AlicenseAqualityBmaintenanceAn MCP server that gives coding agents structured plant data for garden planning: species care profiles, companion checks that explain themselves, and frost-date planting windows derived from ten years of observed weather.411 npmMIT
- AlicenseAqualityBmaintenanceEnables AI agents to perform exact, reproducible mechanical computation — text diffing, hashing, JSON querying, calendar arithmetic, deadline-bounded regex extraction, CSV parsing, similarity scoring, unit and base conversion — instead of relying on probabilistic guessing. Runs dependency-free, read-only and offline over stdio, with schema validation and hard caps on every operation so no call can hang the client.1524 npmMIT
- AlicenseBqualityBmaintenanceGives AI agents a searchable catalog of over 15,000 documented tools, commands and functions across fourteen engineering and design applications, plus headless automation adapters that run the installed software in batch/script mode and return structured JSON. Also provides a timezone-aware time tool and an optional live documentation search, with local-only networking and an internet-tools kill switch by default.31MIT
