To use mcp-server-weather, follow the quickstart guide available at https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/server and set up the server to allow agents to access weather data.

  • Provides weather querying capabilities for agents. - Official example for building MCP Servers. - Integration with Cursor as an MCP Client.
  1. Enabling agents to provide real-time weather updates.
  2. Integrating weather data into applications using MCP protocol.
  3. Demonstrating the capabilities of MCP Servers in handling weather queries.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-weather-k8scat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-server-weather-k8scat"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-weather-k8scat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{

      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-server-weather-k8scat"
      ]
    }
  }
}
