Climatiq MCP server: MCP server, setup and security

What Climatiq MCP server does

According to its repository: “Calculate carbon emissions and climate impact via the Climatiq API.”

An MCP server gives an AI agent extra tools it calls during the conversation: the agent reads their description, decides to use them and gets the result back. Climatiq MCP server is listed under Other integrations, a category of 194 servers in the directory, where it ranks #163 by stars.

Topics declared by the repository: anthropic-claude, climate-data.

Installing and connecting Climatiq MCP server

No package or remote server is declared in the official MCP registry: you install it from source, following the repository README.

Like any MCP server, you declare it in your client's configuration (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex…): a name, the command that starts it or its URL, and any environment variables. The client then starts it and lists its tools. Project language: Python.

Security: what to check

An MCP server runs code with the rights you give it, and the model reads its tool descriptions: a malicious or compromised server can hijack the agent. Read the code, or pick a maintained and widely used server, before connecting it.

Points found for Climatiq MCP server:

• Maintenance: no commit for 19 months. Possible flaws and protocol changes are no longer tracked.

Good practice: grant only the rights needed (least privilege), require human approval for irreversible actions, and run the AI agent security check.

Project activity and maintenance

Created on March 17, 2025, the jagan-shanmugam/climatiq-mcp-server repository has 12 stars and 10 forks, with 1 open issues. It has more stars than 29% of the servers in the directory. Last change 19 months ago.

Stars measure attention, not quality: a recent, heavily promoted project can collect them fast, while a useful but niche server will have few.
