Click on "Deploy 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., "@com.restoreworth/fema-data show me NFIP paid flood claims for Harris County, TX"
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.
Source of the remote MCP server of restoreworth.com, listed in the MCP registry as com.restoreworth/fema-data.
It serves FEMA open data (NFIP claims, flood damage by water depth, county profiles), read-only, with no key.
Every amount comes from FEMA files: amounts paid by NFIP, not repair cost. No repair-cost estimate is served.

Descriptions as returned by tools/list.
Tool | Description |
| NFIP paid building claims for one US state or DC, 2020-2024 (FEMA OpenFEMA, NFIP Redacted Claims v3): number of paid claims, quartiles and median of the amount paid, dominant flood event and its share. These are amounts paid by NFIP, not repair cost. |
| NFIP paid building claims for one county, 2015-2024 and 2020-2024. Give a 5-digit FIPS code, or a county name and its state. A county absent from the table (it keeps counties with at least 100 paid claims) gets the state row, and the answer says so. These are amounts paid by NFIP, not repair cost. |
| Median damage ratio (FEMA actual cash value of the damage / actual cash value of the building) on NFIP paid claims 2015-2024, by interior water depth band and single-family one-floor segment. With building_value_usd, returns ratio x value: the median ratio of the band, not an estimate for this home. |
| FEMA open-data profile of one county by 5-digit FIPS: NFIP paid claims summary, disaster declarations since 2000, FEMA inspections of owner applicants (Individuals and Households Program), NFIP Community Status Book and CRS classes. A value the source does not give is returned as "not in source", never 0. |
| Lists every source file this server reads, with publisher, dataset page, terms, as-of and retrieval dates, and the RestoreWorth page that publishes it. |
