SWATGenX MCP Server
The agent-native front door to SWATGenX: SWAT+ watershed models for any river in the lower 48 states, built in the cloud from national datasets, with calibration as a separate step you run when you are ready.
Add it to Claude or any MCP client, and an agent can search the example-model catalog with its calibration and held-out validation scores, query a national groundwater well inventory and a national PFAS monitoring inventory, preview what a model of a watershed would contain, read the documentation, and start, track and download a real SWAT+ build under the same allocations as the web app.
Endpoint:

Documentation and client setup: https://www.swatgenx.com/mcp-server
Connect
claude mcp add --transport http swatgenx https://www.swatgenx.com/mcpor, in a client's JSON config:
{ "mcpServers": { "swatgenx": { "type": "http", "url": "https://www.swatgenx.com/mcp" } } }Connecting and listing the tools need no sign-in. Every tool call needs a SWATGenX sign-in or an API key: clients that
support MCP authorization sign in with OAuth 2.1 through swatgenx.com; clients that set headers can send
Authorization: Bearer <your API key>.

About
SWATGenX builds SWAT+ models for a USGS gauge, a HUC12 outlet or a HUC8 basin from NHDPlus HR hydrography, gSSURGO soils, NLCD land cover and PRISM weather. A groundwater study (offered in Michigan Lower Peninsula, Indiana, Minnesota, Ohio, Wisconsin) also builds a steady-state MODFLOW 6 groundwater model. Calibration against USGS streamflow is a separate step you run when you are ready. Daily two-way SWAT+/MODFLOW 6 coupling is in the engine, not yet in an automatic build.
The national groundwater inventory is described in doi:10.5194/essd-2026-527.
The server implementation lives in the main SWATGenX repository; this repository holds the registry manifest
(server.json) and the publish workflow.
