**🚨 Real-time Natural Hazard Monitoring for AI Agents**

A powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI assistants to authoritative natural hazard data sources. Monitor earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, and solar events with configurable alerts and webhooks.

> **🤖 AI Agents:** Skip scanning this repo. Read [`AI.TOC`](AI.TOC) first — it's a 500-token project map. Then use [`AI.INDEX`](AI.INDEX) to find specific functions and [`AI.REGISTER`](AI.REGISTER) for env vars, APIs, and config. This project uses the [LBF AI Navigation Standard](AI.CONTEXT.md).

## ⚡ Key Features

- 🌋 **9+ Authoritative Data Sources**: USGS, NOAA, Smithsonian GVP, NHC, NIFC, OpenAQ, DHS, State Dept, CISA, US Drought Monitor
- 🎯 **Real-time Monitoring**: Live data feeds with customizable thresholds
- 🔔 **Smart Alerts**: Webhook notifications for critical events
- 🗺️ **Geographic Filtering**: Target specific regions or global coverage
- 🔧 **Zero Configuration**: Works out-of-the-box, configure only what you need
- 🐳 **Production Ready**: Docker support, comprehensive error handling

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Install via PyPI (Recommended)

```bash
pip install wems-mcp-server
```

### Or install from source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/heliosarchitect/wems-mcp-server.git
cd wems-mcp-server
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Run as MCP server (connects to AI assistants)
python -m wems_mcp_server

# Test earthquake monitoring
python -c "
import asyncio
from wems_mcp_server import check_earthquakes
print(asyncio.run(check_earthquakes(min_magnitude=6.0)))
"
```

### Example Output

```json
{
  "earthquakes_found": 3,
  "events": [
    {
      "magnitude": 7.2,
      "location": "67 km SW of Tres Picos, Mexico",
      "time": "2024-02-13T14:30:15Z",
      "depth": 35.8,
      "tsunami_threat": true
    }
  ]
}
```
