# weather-server MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server

This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that implements a simple weather service. It demonstrates core MCP concepts by providing:

- A resource for getting the current weather
- A tool for getting a weather forecast

## Features

### Resources
- List and access the current weather via a `weather://` URI
- The resource provides temperature, conditions, humidity, and wind speed.

### Tools
- `get_forecast` - Get the weather forecast for a city.
  - Takes a city name and number of days (1-5) as parameters.

## Development

Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```

For development with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run watch
```

## Installation

To use with a compatible client, add the server config. For example, for Claude Desktop:

On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "weather-server": {
      "command": "/path/to/weather-server/build/index.js"
    }
  }
}
```

### Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:

```bash
npm run inspector
```

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
