- Default AWC_BASE_URL https://aviationweather.gov/api/data
- Hosted remote: https://aviation-weather.caseyjhand.com/mcp
What problem does it solve?
Building an aviation weather feature means juggling AWC endpoints and formats instead of letting your agent retrieve briefing data in one step.
Who is it for?
Indie devs shipping pilot tools, drone ops software, or logbook assistants that need AWC-sourced weather in the agent loop.
Skip if: Generic travel apps that only need city-level forecasts from consumer weather APIs, not aviation SIGMET/AIRMET products.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After install, your agent can pull current METAR/TAF and hazard bulletins you map into APIs, alerts, or ops checklists.
- Agent-fetched METAR/TAF and hazard bulletin text
- Integration patterns for aviation ops or mobile briefing features
- stdio or remote MCP endpoint pointed at AWC data

Journey fit
Aviation weather APIs are wired during build when you connect your product to authoritative AWC data sources. Integrations subphase covers external NWS AWC API calls your backend or agent tools will wrap for pilots and ops tools.
How it compares
AWC-focused weather MCP, not a broad OpenWeather-style consumer integration skill.
