Built-in capabilities (7)
Always display the health_recommendation from the result. AQI scale: 0-50=Good, 51-100=Moderate, 101-150=Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups, 151-200=Unhealthy, 201-300=Very Unhealthy, 301+=Hazardous. Get current air quality index (AQI), PM2.5, PM10, ozone, and NO2 for any city
Alerts are computed from current conditions and the 7-day forecast. Returns an empty list if no significant conditions are detected. Get active weather alerts and advisories for any city, derived from forecast data
This tool analyses hourly data for 72 hours and scores each 3-hour window using activity-specific criteria. Supports activities: general, hiking, beach, cycling, running, outdoor_work, photography, picnic. Always show the tip from the top-ranked window. Find the best time windows in the next 72 hours to do an outdoor activity in any city, with a comfort score
g. "which city has better weather?", "should I go to Lisbon or Madrid this weekend?", "compare weather in NYC, London, and Tokyo"). Accepts 2 to 5 cities. Computes a comfort score for each and highlights the best option. Compare current weather conditions across multiple cities side by side, with comfort scores
Accept natural language city names (e.g. "São Paulo", "New York", "Paris, France"). Do NOT use for forecasts — use weather.forecast for that. Get current weather conditions for any city in the world
Default to 7 days if the user does not specify. Max 14 days. For today's hour-by-hour breakdown, use weather.hourly instead. Get a multi-day weather forecast (1–14 days) for any city in the world
Always covers the next 24 hours from now. For multi-day overview, use weather.forecast instead. Get an hour-by-hour weather forecast for the next 24 hours for any city

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an API key to use this weather server?
No. This server uses the Open-Meteo API, which is free and open-source for non-commercial use. You can start using it immediately without any manual configuration or signup processes.
Can I check the air quality for my city?
Yes. The weather.air_quality tool provides the current US AQI level, concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, Ozone, and health recommendations based on the current conditions.
How can I find the best time for a run or a hike?
Use the weather.best_time tool. You can specify your preferred temperature range and whether you want to avoid rain. Your agent will analyze the forecast and suggest the optimal time windows for your activity.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
