MCP Weather Server

This project is a demo implementation of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides weather-related tools. The server exposes two tools:

  1. get-alerts: Fetches active weather alerts for a given US state.

  2. get-forecast: Provides a weather forecast for a specific location based on latitude and longitude.

Features

  • Built using Node.js.

  • Implements MCP tools for weather data retrieval.

  • Uses the US National Weather Service API for accurate and up-to-date weather information.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js installed on your system.

  • Familiarity with MCP concepts and tools.

Setup

Installing via Smithery

To install mcp-server-learn for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @adarshem/mcp-server-learn --client claude

Manual Installation

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone <repository-url>
    cd weather
  2. Install dependencies using pnpm (as configured in the project):

    pnpm install
  3. Build the project:

    pnpm build

    B3.1/5.0

    Scored across 2 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    The two tools have clearly distinct purposes: get-alerts focuses on weather alerts for a state, while get-forecast provides weather forecasts for a location. There is no overlap in functionality, making it easy for an agent to choose the correct tool based on the need for alerts versus forecasts.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    Both tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with hyphens (get-alerts and get-forecast). This uniformity makes the tool set predictable and easy to understand, with no deviations in naming conventions.

    Tool Count2/5

    With only two tools, the server feels thin for a weather domain, as it lacks essential operations like current conditions, historical data, or radar information. While the tools are well-defined, the count is too low to provide comprehensive coverage for typical weather-related tasks.

    Completeness2/5

    The tool set is severely incomplete for a weather server, missing core functionalities such as current weather conditions, historical data, radar maps, and air quality information. This limited surface will likely cause agent failures when users request common weather data beyond alerts and forecasts.
