How to Use the Weatherbit Alternative MCP in CrewAI

Q: How do I check weather alerts with Weatherbit Alternative and CrewAI?

You initialize an agent to use getalerts. This tool accepts input by city, postal code, or coordinates. The crew then analyzes the resulting alert data.

Q: Does the Weatherbit Alternative support current observations with CrewAI?

Yes. One agent uses getcurrentweather to get immediate data. You can point it using a station name, city, or zip code for maximum accuracy.

Q: If I need historical data, how does Weatherbit Alternative work with CrewAI?

You task two agents: one uses getdailyhistory and the other uses gethourlyhistory. Both require specifying start/end dates and coordinates.

Q: How does Weatherbit Alternative handle air quality checks with CrewAI?

The crew runs getcurrentairquality. This tool pulls pollution metrics like O3, NO2, and PM10. It needs a location input such as lat/lon or a postal code.

Specialized Alert Detection Team

Set up an Agent to run `get_alerts`. This agent can check for severe weather using a city, postal code, or lat/lon. A separate monitor agent reviews the alert severity. The CrewAI framework handles this collaboration: one agent gets the raw data, and another interprets if immediate action is needed.

Forecasting Agent for Multi-Day Plans

Assign a specialized forecasting agent to use `get_hourly_forecast`. This tool provides 10 days of hourly predictions using lat/lon. The team can then pass this data to an analysis agent. The collaboration allows you to sequence calls: first, get the forecast; second, use `get_airquality_forecast` for pollution context.

Historical Data Analysis Team

You can create a dedicated historical data crew. One agent uses `get_daily_history`, while another fetches more detail using `get_subhourly_history`. Both require precise date ranges and coordinates. The shared memory of the MCP Server ensures both specialized agents are working off the same foundational geographic data.

Setup guide

Set up Weatherbit Alternative MCP in CrewAI

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
crewai package (pip install crewai)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install CrewAI
Run pip install crewai to install the framework. MCP support is built-in via the mcps parameter.
2

Add the MCP URL to your agent
Pass your Vinkius endpoint directly to the mcps list. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. CrewAI handles tool discovery and caching automatically.
3

Kick off your crew
Create a Crew with your agent and tasks. Call crew.kickoff() — the agent will automatically invoke Weatherbit Alternative tools as needed.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

agent = Agent(
    role="Weatherbit Alternative Analyst",
    goal="Access and analyze Weatherbit Alternative data via MCP.",
    backstory="Expert analyst with direct Weatherbit Alternative access.",
    mcps=[
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    ],
)

task = Task(
    description="List recent Weatherbit Alternative transactions",
    agent=agent,
    expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
)

crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
result = crew.kickoff()
print(result)

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
crewai + crewai-tools packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install crewai crewai-tools. The MCPServerAdapter handles lifecycle management and tool conversion.
2

Connect with MCPServerAdapter
Use MCPServerAdapter as a context manager with SseServerParameters pointing to your Vinkius endpoint. The adapter automatically manages connection lifecycle.
3

Assign tools and run
Pass the returned mcp_tools to your agent's tools parameter. The adapter converts MCP tools to native BaseTool objects compatible with all CrewAI agents.

crew.py

from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew
from crewai_tools import MCPServerAdapter
from mcp import SseServerParameters

server_params = SseServerParameters(
    url="https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)

with MCPServerAdapter(server_params) as mcp_tools:
    agent = Agent(
        role="Weatherbit Alternative Analyst",
        goal="Access and analyze Weatherbit Alternative data via MCP.",
        backstory="Expert analyst with direct Weatherbit Alternative access.",
        tools=mcp_tools,
    )

    task = Task(
        description="List recent Weatherbit Alternative transactions",
        agent=agent,
        expected_output="A summary of recent activity",
    )

    crew = Crew(agents=[agent], tasks=[task])
    result = crew.kickoff()
