get_weather_by_coordinates

Instructions

Args:
    latitude: Latitude of the location
    longitude: Longitude of the location
    units: Units of measurement ('metric' or 'imperial')

Implementation Reference

• weather.py:290-317 (handler)

  The handler function decorated with @mcp.tool(), which registers and implements the get_weather_by_coordinates tool. It fetches current weather data from OpenWeatherMap API using provided latitude, longitude, and units, formats it using helper functions, and returns JSON.
