About IQAir MCP Server
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire environmental research and air quality auditing workflow with IQAir, the world's most popular platform for air quality data. By connecting the AirVisual API to your agent, you transform complex pollution searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly retrieve real-time air quality indices (AQI), audit weather conditions, and identify the most polluted areas without you ever touching a technical portal. Whether you are conducting climate research or monitoring local health constraints, your agent acts as a real-time environmental assistant, ensuring your data is always precise and localized.
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and IQAir tool infrastructure. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution. deployable to any Node.js host in one command.
What you can do
- Pollution Auditing — Retrieve real-time Air Quality Index (AQI) data for the nearest city or specific global locations instantly.
- Weather Oversight — Audit current weather conditions, including temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, to maintain a clear view of environmental scale.
- Geographic Discovery — List all supported countries, states, and cities in the IQAir catalog to understand the geographic reach of air quality monitoring.
- Local Intelligence — Query specific city data to understand local pollution markers and main pollutants (e.g., p2, p1).
- Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your environmental research workflow is always operational.
The IQAir MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Mastra AI in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
