Weather MCP Server: MCP server, setup and security
Weather MCP Server is an open-source MCP server that lets an AI agent retrieve weather information through the Open-Meteo API from an assistant. Its repository has 60 stars and its last commit is from September 9, 2026 and it is licensed under Apache-2.0.
What Weather MCP Server does
According to its repository: “Get weather information from the Open-Meteo 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. Weather MCP Server is listed under Maps, places and travel, a category of 67 servers in the directory, where it ranks #19 by stars.
Topics declared by the repository: python, python3, ai-tools.
Installing and connecting Weather MCP Server
Distribution modes declared in the official MCP registry:
- PyPI package (Python, started with
uvxorpip)
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.
None of the risk signals we track (system access, secrets, missing licence, abandonment) applies to Weather MCP Server. That does not replace reading the code.
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 isdaniel/mcp_weather_server repository has 60 stars and 36 forks, with 2 open issues. It has more stars than 55% of the servers in the directory. Last change 2 months ago. Version published in the registry: 0.6.1 (December 13, 2025).
Stars measure attention, not quality: a recent, heavily promoted project can collect them fast, while a useful but niche server will have few.
