Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 4 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Trying to coordinate safety across multiple dashboards is exhausting.

Today, planning an outdoor event means logging into a UV widget, cross-referencing ozone data on another site, and then checking the forecast in a third tab. You spend ten minutes just gathering three related pieces of info, only to have your agent spit out four separate numbers.

With this MCP server, you ask your AI client one question: 'What's the UV risk for the park next Saturday?' It runs `get_uv_forecast`, gets ozone data, and combines it all into a single report. You get the full picture in seconds.

Open UV Index API MCP Server: Get Actionable Safety Intelligence

The manual steps that disappear are the cross-site searches and data reconciliation. No more copying coordinates from one map service to another, or having to manually interpret what a 'Very High' risk means for your staff.

Now you can write a single prompt—like 'Plan sunscreen needs for this site.' The API handles all the underlying tool calls (`get_uv_index` -> `get_uv_protection_guide`) and delivers one clear, actionable recommendation.

What your AI can actually do with this

This server lets your AI agent handle localized outdoor health checks using UV radiation metrics. You don't need a bunch of different weather sites; this is your single source for reliable environmental data.

Before you run anything, you can use the check_api_status tool to verify if the Open UV Index API connection is active and ready for service. It confirms whether the whole system is operational right now, so you don't waste cycles calling a dead endpoint. Knowing the status upfront saves time.

To get the actual measurement, your agent calls get_uv_index. This tool delivers the precise, current Ultraviolet Index reading based on any latitude and longitude pair you give it. It gives you the hard number—the risk level right now at that specific spot. You can use this data point to gauge immediate outdoor safety.

If you need to plan for tomorrow or later in the week, you'll pull data using get_uv_forecast. This tool audits the expected daily range and timing of solar intensity (UV forecast) for a location. It doesn't just give you an average; it shows you when the peak solar activity is going to hit that specific area.

Once your agent has the UV Index or the forecasted risk level, it uses get_uv_protection_guide. This tool takes that raw number and generates actionable sun safety advice. It'll tell you exactly what kind of SPF you need, if a hat is mandatory, or if sunglasses are enough based on the current risk.

You get concrete instructions, not just numbers.

These tools work together to give your agent full control over outdoor planning data. When you combine checking the status with getting real-time readings and then generating specific safety guides, your AI client acts like a specialized environmental consultant. It monitors UV levels and helps you keep track of things that matter for localized health—it's all tied back to accurate coordinates.

Questions you might have

How do I check if Open UV Index API is working right now? +

Run the check_api_status tool. This confirms the entire service stack is operational and ready to accept data requests.

I need sun protection advice for my coordinates; which tool do I use? Open UV Index API +

You must first get the current index using get_uv_index, then pass those results to get_uv_protection_guide. The guide needs the raw number to give you accurate advice.

Can I predict UV risk for a month out with Open UV Index API? +

No. The server provides daily forecasts (get_uv_forecast) which are useful for planning weeks ahead, but it cannot project data months into the future.

What is the difference between `get_uv_index` and `get_uv_forecast`? +

get_uv_index gives you a single number for right now. get_uv_forecast provides a pattern, showing how the intensity will change over an entire day.

What do I need to authenticate my calls using the Open UV Index API? +

You must provide a valid OpenUV API Key. This key handles authentication for all calls, ensuring your agent's requests are legitimate and tracked by us. Make sure to pass this key in the required headers.

What happens if I give bad coordinates to the `get_uv_index` tool? +

The function returns a specific error code and message instead of data. It tells you exactly why the location failed, usually requiring valid latitude/longitude pairs for successful execution.

Are there rate limits when I call multiple tools in a short time with Open UV Index API? +

Yes, we enforce standard rate limiting. If your agent exceeds the allowed calls per minute, it will receive a 429 error. You'll need to back off and retry your requests after a delay.

How does ozone data affect my UV safety report when using `get_uv_index`? +

The ozone level provides context for atmospheric filtering, which directly impacts radiation exposure. The readings complement the direct UV index data you retrieve and help assess overall environmental risk.

How do I find my OpenUV API Key? +

Log in to your OpenUV account, and you will find your API Key in your console dashboard. Copy and paste it below.

Does it support location search by coordinates? +

Yes. All OpenUV tools require latitude and longitude parameters to retrieve precise regional radiation metadata.

Are sun protection recommendations included? +

Yes. The get_uv_protection_guide tool retrieves specific safety metadata including recommended protective gear based on the current UV Index.
