Frequently asked questions

1

What does this server do?

It exposes two weather‑related tools (`get_alerts` and `get_forecast`) over a secure SSE endpoint, authenticated with an API key, for use by any MCP‑compatible client.

2

What are the prerequisites to run it locally?

Python 3.11 or later and [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) are required.

3

How is authentication handled?

The server requires an `x‑api‑key` header on SSE requests; the key is set via the `API_KEYS` environment variable.

4

Can it be deployed to Azure?

Yes, run `az containerapp up` with the provided command to deploy to Azure Container Apps; the public URL is returned on success.

5

What transport does it use?

Server‑Sent Events (SSE) via the `/sse` endpoint, with session‑based messages routed through `/messages`.
