Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check status.live every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 17

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

ski
ski_compare_resorts
Side-by-side open-lift counts for up to 10 resorts, sorted by share of lifts open. Operator-reported; a resort without a count says whether it listed no lifts or could not be read.
ski_find_nearby_resorts
Resorts closest to a point, by straight-line distance. Optionally fetches live open-lift counts for each.
ski_get_region_summary
Open-lift totals for a whole region (a tag from ski_list_regions, e.g. "Utah", "Dolomiti"), with each resort's count. Fetches every resort in the region, so it is limited to 40 resorts.
ski_get_resort_status
Everything known about one resort: live lift status (each lift open, on hold, scheduled, or closed, read from the resort's own site), opening date if the season has not started, a model weather forecast, model snow estimates (depth and snowfall over the last 7/30 and next 7 days at the lower and upper lift elevations), official road conditions on the access routes where a source exists (California chain controls, the road to Farellones), and webcams. Lift data is operator-reported and comes with an as-of time and a state: reported (the board listed lifts), none_listed (it listed none, usually off-season; not the same as closed) or source_error (it could not be read; unknown). Accepts an id or a resort name.
ski_list_regions
List the region tags resorts are grouped by (states, countries, ranges), with resort counts.
ski_open_now
Ski resorts whose own lift board lists running lifts right now, most open lifts first, optionally within a region (a country such as "Chile", a state such as "Colorado", a season pass such as "Ikon Pass" or "Epic Pass", or any tag from ski_list_regions). Uses the latest check of every resort, made about every 90 minutes, so it answers "where can I ski today?" across all resorts at once; each line gives its as-of time. Use ski_get_resort_status for a live, per-lift answer about one resort.
ski_search_resorts
Find the ski resorts this server covers, by name, id, region tag (e.g. "Colorado", "Alps", "Lake Tahoe") or season pass ("Ikon Pass", "Epic Pass"). Returns resort ids to pass to the other tools. Leave query empty to list everything.
campgrounds
campgrounds_find_near
National Park Service and Forest Service campgrounds nearest a latitude/longitude, with distance, whether each is open today and its booking link. NPS campgrounds are open or closed by the park's published schedule; Forest Service ones by the status each forest lists (refreshed every 6 hours). "not listed" means the forest gives no status: unknown, not closed.
campgrounds_get_status
One campground: whether it is open today, the season, how to book it (Recreation.gov or the concessioner, or first come first served), fees, rules, its official page, and a model weather forecast. Accepts an id (e.g. "upper-pines") or a name. NPS campgrounds are open or closed by the park's published schedule; Forest Service ones by the status each forest lists (refreshed every 6 hours). "not listed" means the forest gives no status: unknown, not closed.
campgrounds_search
Find National Park Service and Forest Service campgrounds by name, id, park or national forest (e.g. "Yosemite", "Shasta-Trinity"), or state ("CO", "Colorado"), with whether each is open today and its booking link. Returns ids for campgrounds_get_status. NPS campgrounds are open or closed by the park's published schedule; Forest Service ones by the status each forest lists (refreshed every 6 hours). "not listed" means the forest gives no status: unknown, not closed.
nationalparks
nationalparks_find_campgrounds
National Park Service campgrounds nearest a point, with whether each is open today by its published schedule, site counts and reservation links. Schedules only: check nationalparks_get_park_status for current alerts.
nationalparks_get_park_status
Right now at one park. For US parks: the National Park Service's current alerts (closures, dangers, fire bans, water outages), National Weather Service warnings, air quality (US AQI), active wildfires within 50 km, road events inside the park and access-road conditions where available, which campgrounds and visitor centers are open today by their published schedules, webcams, sunrise/sunset and moon phase, and a model weather forecast. For Canadian parks: Parks Canada bulletins, Environment Canada weather alerts, satellite fire hotspots, air quality, road conditions where available, and the forecast. Live parts come with an as-of time. Accepts a park id (e.g. "yose", "banff") or name.
nationalparks_search_parks
Find the national parks this server covers: US National Park Service units (national parks, plus monuments, seashores and recreation areas with campgrounds) and Canada's national parks (Parks Canada). Search by name, park id (e.g. "yose", "banff"), US state, Canadian province, or "canada". Returns ids for nationalparks_get_park_status.
surf
surf_get_spot_status
What the water is doing at one surf spot now: the nearest NOAA wave buoy (wave height, period and direction, swell and wind waves apart, water temperature, wind) with its measurement time, the next high and low tides, and a 7-day model swell forecast with morning wind. Where no buoy reports nearby (most spots outside the US) the "now" values are model values and say so. Accepts a spot id or name. Heights in metres with feet in brackets.
surf_search_spots
Find the surf spots this server covers, by name, id, area (e.g. "Oahu", "California", "Bali") or country. Returns spot ids for surf_get_spot_status. Leave query empty to list everything.
themeparks
themeparks_get_park_status
Live ride status for one theme park: every ride open or closed with its posted wait time, grouped by area, plus the park's local time and a model weather forecast. Pass `ride` to answer about specific rides ("Space Mountain"). Data comes from Queue-Times, updated every 5 minutes, with an as-of time and a state: reported (rides running), none_open (every ride closed, usually the park is closed) or source_error (unknown, not closed). Accepts a park id or name.
themeparks_search_parks
Find the theme parks this server covers, by name, id, country (e.g. "Japan") or operator (e.g. "Six Flags", "Disney"). Returns park ids for themeparks_get_park_status. Leave query empty to list everything.

status.live — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can status.live do?
It exposes 17 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: campgrounds_find_near, campgrounds_get_status, campgrounds_search, nationalparks_find_campgrounds, nationalparks_get_park_status, nationalparks_search_parks and 11 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 →
What is status.live mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around ski, campgrounds and nationalparks. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is status.live 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 334 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect status.live?
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 status.live need an API key?
No. status.live completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 17 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is status.live?
It answers our handshake in 334 ms on average, which is faster than 42% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
