概要

What is MCP Weather Alerts Tool using FastMCP + Claude Desktop?

This project implements a custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) server using the FastMCP Python SDK, integrating with Claude Desktop to enable an AI assistant to retrieve real-time weather alerts for any U.S. state via the api.weather.gov API.

How to use MCP Weather Alerts Tool using FastMCP + Claude Desktop?

Install dependencies using uv add "mcp[cli]" httpx and place the weather.py tool in a server/ folder. Launch interactively with uv run mcp dev server/weather.py and test via MCP Inspector at http://localhost:6757. For Claude Desktop, add a weather entry to claude_desktop_config.json pointing to uv run mcp run <path>/server/weather.py, restart the app, and ask for alerts by state (e.g., “What are the weather alerts for Texas?”).

FAQ from MCP Weather Alerts Tool using FastMCP + Claude Desktop

What runtime and dependencies are required?

Python 3.x with uv package manager, plus mcp[cli] and httpx. The project uses uv.lock for dependency locking.

How can I test the tool without Claude Desktop?

Run uv run mcp dev server/weather.py to launch the MCP Inspector at http://localhost:6757, where you can call get_alerts with a state code.

Where does the weather alert data come from?

All data is fetched live from the official api.weather.gov endpoint /alerts/active, which is free and does not require an API key.

How do I integrate this tool with Claude Desktop?

Add a server entry to claude_desktop_config.json with the uv run mcp run command pointing to your weather.py file. Restart Claude Desktop, then ask a weather-related question.

What are the core MCP primitives used?

The server implements a Tool (get_alerts), which is analogous to a POST endpoint. MCP also defines Resources (static data) and Prompts (reusable LLM templates), but this project focuses on a single tool.
