Available tools 9

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

climate
get_climate_timeseries
Monthly time series 2015-2025 (about 130 monthly values) for one variable at a point, plus the 12-month climatology. Variables: temperature_c, precipitation_mm, dewpoint_c, skin_temperature_c, surface_pressure_hpa, snowfall_cm, total_evaporation_mm, soil_water_layer_1_vol, wind_speed_ms, net_solar_radiation_mj_m2, relative_humidity_pct, cloud_cover_pct, ndvi, fire_weather_index. Use for trend questions (is it getting hotter or drier here?).
current
get_current_weather
Current weather conditions for a point: temperature, humidity, dewpoint, wind speed and direction, precipitation, pressure, cloud cover, solar radiation, plus terrain, land cover, NDVI, population density, and soil context. Source: NOAA GFS 0.25 degree, updated every 6 hours.
environment
get_environment
Environmental data for a point: NDVI vegetation index (300m), annual evapotranspiration (MODIS), and ESA WorldCover land cover class.
hazards
get_hazards
Natural hazard indices for a point: Fire Weather Index (current danger), soil erosion risk (RUSLE, t/ha/yr), and flood susceptibility (Topographic Wetness Index).
historical
get_historical_climate
10-year historical climate averages (2015-2025, ERA5 reanalysis) for a point. Omit month for the annual average, or pass month 1-12 for that month's climatology with min and max ranges. Use this for questions about typical climate, growing seasons, or what weather to expect at a location and time of year.
polygon
get_polygon_stats
Aggregate statistics (mean, min, max, std) over a polygon area: weather, terrain, hazards, environment, soil, and population. Coordinates are [longitude, latitude] pairs forming a ring. Maximum area depends on plan (free tier: 100 km2). Use for area questions such as average slope of a farm or population inside a zone.
proximity
get_proximity
Distances in km from a point to the nearest city, airport, port, hospital, power plant, and other key infrastructure.
terrain
get_terrain
Terrain for a point: elevation, slope, and aspect at 30m resolution (Copernicus DEM), plus Topographic Wetness Index (flood susceptibility indicator).
weather
get_weather_forecast
Daily weather forecast for a point, up to 7 days ahead. day=0 is today, day=6 is six days out. Returns daily mean, min, and max per variable.

Pixelgust — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Pixelgust do?
It exposes 9 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_climate_timeseries, get_current_weather, get_environment, get_hazards, get_historical_climate, get_polygon_stats and 3 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Pixelgust working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 229 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Pixelgust?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Pixelgust need an API key?
No. Pixelgust completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 9 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Pixelgust?
It answers our handshake in 229 ms on average, which is faster than 57% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
