NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence MCP Tools for LlamaIndex (7)
These 7 tools become available when you connect NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence to LlamaIndex via MCP:
get_cme
CMEs are massive bursts of solar wind and magnetic fields from the Sun. Earth-directed CMEs cause geomagnetic storms and aurora. Default: last 30 days. Get Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) events from NASA DONKI
get_donki_notifications
A unified feed of all space weather events: CMEs, flares, storms, shocks, and radiation events. Good for a quick overview of recent solar activity. Get all recent DONKI space weather notifications
get_geomagnetic_storms
Includes Kp index and linked CME/shock data. Storms above Kp=7 are severe, Kp=9 is extreme. Affects power grids, GPS, satellites, and enables aurora at low latitudes. Get geomagnetic storm events from NASA DONKI
get_interplanetary_shocks
Shocks often precede geomagnetic storms and are caused by CME-driven disturbances in the solar wind. Get interplanetary shock wave events from NASA DONKI
get_radiation_belt
The Van Allen radiation belts can be energized during geomagnetic storms, posing risks to satellites in medium Earth orbit. Get radiation belt enhancement events from NASA DONKI
get_solar_energetic_particles
SEPs are dangerous to astronauts and can damage satellite electronics. Get Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) events from NASA DONKI
get_solar_flares
Classes: C (common), M (moderate), X (extreme). X-class flares cause radio blackouts and satellite disruption. Includes begin/peak/end times, active region, and instruments that detected it. Get solar flare events by class (C, M, X) from NASA DONKI
Example Prompts for NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence in LlamaIndex
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your LlamaIndex agent to start working with NASA DONKI — Space Weather Intelligence immediately.
"Were there any solar flares this month?"
"Were there any major geomagnetic storms last year?"
