USGS Water Services MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for USGS Water Services MCP Server?

USGS Water Services MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package usgs-mcp was installed 142 times last week.

How do I connect USGS Water Services MCP Server?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls usgs-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use USGS Water Services MCP Server?

The pypi package usgs-mcp was installed 142 times in the last week. Week over week that is +17%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is USGS Water Services MCP Server open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 10 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
