open-meteo-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

open-meteo-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from cmer81/open-meteo-mcp. It costs 1,998 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository guidance for an Open-Meteo MCP server, a service that lets AI models access weather data through defined tools. It describes the code structure, weather API client, input checks, response limits, and HTTP security.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on the server’s TypeScript code, weather API connections, tool definitions, validation, response sizing, authentication, rate limits, or request-origin checks.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project context they need before changing the server, reducing the risk of editing the wrong component or breaking API handling.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

open-meteo-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Repository Overview

This is an Open-Meteo MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides comprehensive access to weather APIs for Large Language Models. It connects LLMs to Open-Meteo's weather forecasting, historical data, air quality, marine conditions, and climate projection services.

Architecture

Core Components

  • src/index.ts - Main MCP server implementation using @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
  • src/client.ts - HTTP client with multiple API endpoints (forecast, archive, air quality, marine, etc.)
  • src/tools.ts - Tool metadata (name, title, description, annotations); input schemas come from types.ts
  • src/types.ts - Zod validation schemas for all API parameters and responses
  • src/truncation.ts - Caps oversized responses and serializes them for the client
  • src/security.ts - Auth, origin validation, rate limiting, trusted-proxy IP extraction (HTTP transport only)

API Client Architecture

The OpenMeteoClient class manages separate Axios instances for different Open-Meteo services:

  • Main forecast API (api.open-meteo.com)
  • Air quality API (air-quality-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Marine weather API (marine-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Archive/historical API (archive-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Seasonal forecast API (seasonal-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Ensemble forecast API (ensemble-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Geocoding API (geocoding-api.open-meteo.com)
  • Flood API (flood-api.open-meteo.com)

Each service can be configured via environment variables with sensible defaults.

Transport Modes

The server supports two transport modes (configured via TRANSPORT env var):

  • stdio (default) - Standard input/output for direct MCP client integration (Claude Desktop, etc.). Never write logs to stdout here — it would corrupt the protocol stream; log() writes to stderr.
  • Streamable HTTP (TRANSPORT=http) - Express-based HTTP server with session management, listening on PORT (default: 3000) at /mcp endpoint, bound to HOST (default: 127.0.0.1, loopback only)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
