## Description

This MCP server acts as a bridge between raw oceanographic forecast data and surfers. It interprets the complex interactions between swell height, wave period, swell direction, and wind to provide accurate surf quality ratings. By accounting for local bathymetry and coastline orientation, it uses tools like `analyze_swell_quality` and `find_best_surf_windows` to predict breaking wave heights and identify the best time windows for surfing. It also helps determine how seafloor types like reef or sand affect wave energy via `calculate_bathymetry_adjustment` and evaluates wind impact using `check_wind_alignment`.

## Tools

### analyze_swell_quality
Answers "How good will the surf be at a specific location during a given time?"

### calculate_bathymetry_adjustment
Answers "How will the local seafloor change the raw swell height?"

### check_wind_alignment
Answers "Is the wind helping or hurting the surf quality?"

### find_best_surf_windows
Answers "When is the best time to go surfing within a given forecast period?"

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How good will the surf be with a 2m swell, 14s period, 180 degree swell direction, 190 degree wind direction, 5 knot wind, and a 170 degree coastline?
```

**Response:** 
```
The surf will be Epic. The high period and offshore wind alignment will create excellent, clean waves with an expected height of 2.2 meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is the wind helping or hurting the surf if the wind is from 270 degrees and the coast faces 90 degrees?
```

**Response:** 
```
The wind is Offshore, which will help groom the wave faces and improve surf quality.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How will a 1.5m swell with a 10s period change if it hits a reef bottom?
```

**Response:** 
```
On a reef bottom, the expected breaking wave height will increase to 1.8 meters due to the concentrated energy.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How accurate are the surf quality ratings?**
The ratings are calculated by analyzing the synergy of swell period, height, and wind alignment relative to the coastline, providing a highly reliable estimate of surf conditions.

**Can I use this to find the best time to surf?**
Yes, you can use the `find_best_surf_windows` tool to scan forecast data and identify specific time intervals where conditions are optimal.

**Does it account for different types of ocean floors?**
Yes, the `calculate_bathymetry_adjustment` tool adjusts expected wave heights based on whether the seafloor is reef, sand, or rock.
