OpenWeather Agro MCP Tools for Claude Code (12)
These 12 tools become available when you connect OpenWeather Agro to Claude Code via MCP:
get_crop_health_index
CHI provides a single metric for overall crop health, making it easier to track field conditions over time and compare across fields. Essential for quick field health assessment, prioritizing scouting missions, and communicating crop status to stakeholders. AI agents should use this when users ask "what is the overall crop health score for my field", "get a quick health assessment", or need a simplified crop condition metric. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get Crop Health Index (CHI) for comprehensive crop condition assessment
get_current_weather
Essential for daily farming decisions, spray application timing, harvest planning, and frost protection. AI agents should use this when users ask "what is the weather like at my farm right now", "should I spray pesticides today", or need current weather data for agricultural operations. Get current weather conditions for agricultural decision making
get_evapotranspiration
ET combines soil evaporation and plant transpiration, providing the most accurate measure of crop water use. Essential for precision irrigation scheduling, water resource management, and drought assessment. AI agents should reference this when users ask "what is the evapotranspiration rate for my field", "calculate irrigation needs", or need crop water use data for irrigation planning. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get evapotranspiration rates for irrigation scheduling and water management
get_evi
EVI is more sensitive than NDVI in high-biomass regions and less affected by atmospheric conditions and soil background. Essential for monitoring dense canopies, tropical crops, and areas with high vegetation cover. AI agents should reference this when users ask "what is the EVI for my dense crop area", "monitor high-biomass vegetation", or need enhanced vegetation index for areas where NDVI saturates. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get EVI (Enhanced Vegetation Index) for high-biomass crop monitoring
get_frost_risk
Returns risk levels (low, moderate, high, critical), predicted frost timing, and recommended protection measures. Essential for frost-sensitive crops (fruits, vegetables, vineyards), irrigation-based frost protection, and crop insurance documentation. AI agents should reference this when users ask "is there frost risk for my orchard tonight", "assess frost danger for my crops", or need frost warning data for crop protection planning. Get frost risk assessment for crop protection planning
get_growing_degree_days
GDD measures heat accumulation used to predict crop development stages, pest emergence, and harvest timing. Essential for phenology tracking, variety selection, and timing agricultural operations. AI agents should reference this when users ask "calculate GDD for my corn field this season", "track crop development stages", or need heat unit accumulation data for agricultural planning. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Calculate Growing Degree Days (GDD) for crop development tracking
get_historical_ndvi
Returns time-series NDVI values showing vegetation health progression, stress detection, and recovery patterns. Essential for seasonal crop performance comparison, drought impact assessment, and long-term field health monitoring. AI agents should reference this when users ask "show me NDVI trends for my field over the growing season", "compare vegetation health between seasons", or need historical vegetation index data for agricultural trend analysis. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get historical NDVI trends for seasonal vegetation health analysis
get_ndvi
NDVI ranges from -1 to 1, with higher values (0.6-0.9) indicating healthy dense vegetation and lower values (0.2-0.5) indicating stressed or sparse vegetation. Essential for crop health monitoring, growth stage assessment, and yield prediction. AI agents should use this when users ask "what is the NDVI for my field on this date", "check crop vegetation health", or need satellite-based vegetation index data for agricultural analysis. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) for crop health assessment
get_satellite_imagery
Returns imagery metadata and access URLs for visual crop assessment, field boundary verification, and change detection analysis. Essential for remote field monitoring, damage assessment, and visual crop health evaluation. AI agents should use this when users ask "get satellite imagery for my field", "show me the latest satellite view of my farm", or need visual imagery for agricultural monitoring. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Zoom: 1-16. Get satellite imagery for visual crop assessment and field monitoring
get_soil_temperature
Soil temperature is critical for seed germination timing, root activity assessment, and nutrient uptake optimization. Essential for planting decisions, irrigation scheduling, and soil health monitoring. AI agents should use this when users ask "what is the soil temperature for planting", "check if soil is warm enough for germination", or need soil thermal data for agricultural planning. Date format: YYYY-MM-DD. Get satellite-derived soil temperature for seed germination and root activity assessment
get_weather_forecast
Essential for planting schedules, harvest timing, spray application windows, and irrigation planning. AI agents should reference this when users ask "what is the weather forecast for my farm this week", "will it rain in the next 5 days", or need forward-looking weather data for agricultural planning. Get multi-day weather forecast for agricultural planning
get_weather_history
Essential for comparing current conditions with historical patterns, analyzing crop performance under past weather conditions, and validating crop models. AI agents should use this when users ask "what was the weather like on this date last year", "show me historical weather for my field", or need past weather data for agricultural analysis. Date format: Unix timestamp (seconds since 1970). Get historical weather data for crop analysis and trend assessment
