Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Open-Meteo.

  1. 01

    Get flood forecast

    This capability provides GloFAS flood forecasts for up to 210 days. Use it to predict river discharge trends months in advance.

  2. 02

    Get historical discharge

    This capability retrieves historical river discharge data from 1984 to the present. It is used for analyzing long-term hydrological trends.

  3. 03

    Get river discharge

    This capability pulls real-time river discharge data at a 5km resolution. It is built for active flood monitoring and water management.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Early Flood Warning

Use the 7-month forecast to prepare for seasonal flooding before it hits.

02

Infrastructure Stress Testing

Compare current discharge against 2002-era historical peaks to test dam or levee capacity.

03

Water Resource Planning

Monitor real-time discharge to manage agricultural water needs during dry or wet seasons.

04

Risk Assessment

Analyze historical discharge trends to determine flood risk for insurance or construction.

Automate a task

Put Open-Meteo to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Open-Meteo works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Open-Meteo to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 3 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Open-Meteo, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Open-Meteo. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

  • 02

    Civil Engineers

    They rely on discharge data to design and maintain flood defense infrastructure.

  • 03

    Flood Insurance Underwriters

    They use historical discharge trends to assess long-term flood risk for properties.

  • 04

    Agricultural Water Planners

    They monitor river discharge to manage irrigation and water availability.

FAQ

Questions Open-Meteo owners ask.

  • 01

    What data does this MCP provide?

    This MCP provides river discharge data, including real-time simulations at 5km resolution, 7-month forward forecasts, and historical data dating back to 1984.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

    You can use this MCP with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 03

    How far ahead can I forecast floods?

    The get_flood_forecast capability provides predictions for up to 210 days, which is approximately 7 months.

  • 04

    What is the resolution of the river discharge data?

    The get_river_discharge capability provides simulated river discharge at a 5km resolution.

  • 05

    Do I need to host the MCP myself?

    No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You simply connect your client and start using the capabilities.

  • 06

    How accurate is the flood forecast?

    Data comes from GloFAS v4 (Global Flood Awareness System) by Copernicus at 5km resolution. Short-term forecasts (1-30 days) are highly reliable. Seasonal forecasts (1-7 months) indicate trends but have wider uncertainty bands.
