What is the Emissions API MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire environmental research workflow with Emissions API, the open source platform for satellite-based emission data. By connecting Emissions API to your agent, you transform complex gas monitoring into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly query carbon monoxide, methane, and ozone levels for any country without you ever touching a technical portal. Whether you are conducting climate research or monitoring industrial impact, your agent acts as a real-time environmental analyst, ensuring your data is always grounded in precise, satellite-derived measurements.
What you can do
- Gas Auditing — Query real-time and historical levels of Carbon Monoxide, Methane, and Ozone to maintain a clear view of atmospheric composition.
- Regional Oversight — Retrieve emission data for specific countries or geographic coordinates to understand local environmental trends.
- Temporal Intelligence — Query data across specific date ranges to monitor changes in gas concentrations over time.
- Spatial Discovery — Retrieve emission measurements in GeoJSON format to maintain strict control over geographic data distribution.
- Product Discovery — List all available gas products in the catalog to identify relevant markers for your research.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- No API Key required (Emissions API is a public and free service)
- Start managing your environmental intelligence through Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Environmental Scientists — monitor global gas concentrations and retrieve satellite metadata straight from your workflow.
- Policy Makers — verify regional emission levels and audit atmospheric trends without manual data exports.
- Sustainability Leads — perform rapid audits of local air quality and discover environmental insights through natural language.
- Operations Leads — automate atmospheric data querying to orchestrate cross-functional climate teams smoothly.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Emissions API into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Emissions API and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 6 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Is an API Key required for Emissions API?
No. Emissions API is a free and open service. This server works out of the box without any static credentials required.
What gases can be audited via the agent?
You can query Carbon Monoxide (carbonmonoxide), Methane (methane), Ozone (ozone), and Nitrogen Dioxide (nitrogendioxide) using specialized tools.
Is the data historical or real-time?
The API provides historical measurement data collected by the Sentinel-5P satellite, typically updated daily with a short processing lag.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
