概要

What is Climate Data Store (CDS) MCP Server?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives LLMs an interface to retrieve Copernicus Climate Data Store (CDS) catalogue data and job statuses via the datapi API. It is designed for developers who want to integrate climate data access into AI assistants running on MCP-compatible hosts like Claude Desktop.

How to use Climate Data Store (CDS) MCP Server?

Clone the repository, install dependencies with uv add "mcp[cli]" datapi python-dotenv, then create a .env file with DATAPI_URL and DATAPI_KEY. Test in dev mode with mcp dev datapi_server.py, or integrate with Claude Desktop using mcp install datapi_server.py --name "DatapiServer" -f .env or by adding the server configuration to claude_desktop_config.json.
