mcp-gistemp
Provides access to NASA's GISTEMP surface temperature data for historical climate analysis.
Click on "Install Server".
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., "@mcp-gistempWhat was the global temperature anomaly for 2023?"
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.

GISTEMP MCP — NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies Surface Temperature
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
Tool | Description |
| NASA GISTEMP surface temperature anomaly time series (degrees C from 1951-1980 baseline). Pick a region (global_land_ocean, global_land_only, northern_hemisphere, southern_hemisphere) and get monthly + annual + seasonal values back. Use for climate bets ("will 2026 be the hottest year on record"), trend comparisons, or cross-source consistency checks against HadCRUT5/Berkeley Earth. Annual frequency returns one row per year (Jan-Dec mean); monthly returns Jan..Dec per year. |
| Most recent NASA GISTEMP global land+ocean monthly anomaly, plus how it ranks against history. Returns the latest available month, the anomaly value (degrees C from 1951-1980 baseline), the rank of that value among all same-month observations since 1880, and a 12-month trailing mean. Cheaper than get_temperature_anomaly when you only need "what is the current reading and is it unusual." |
| NASA GISTEMP annual zonal anomalies (degrees C from 1951-1980 baseline) for 8 latitude bands: global, Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, 24N-90N, 24S-24N (tropics), 90S-24S, 64N-90N (Arctic), 44S-24S, etc. Use for regional climate bets ("will the Arctic warm faster than the tropics in 2026") or bets framed around polar amplification. |

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"gistemp": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/gistemp/mcp"
}
}
}Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Gistemp data" })The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
