Available tools 6

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

fire

fire_archive_search

Search kanari's archive of significant wildfires (since 2026-08-03): by ISO-2 country, date range or month, minimum detections or power, status. Each result has a permanent page URL (kanari.io/fr/feu/<slug>). Use for 'what fires happened in <country> in <month>', 'biggest fires this week', 'is the fire near X still active'.

fire_details

Full record of an archived fire by its slug (from fire_archive_search or a kanari.io/fr/feu/<slug> URL): timeline, detections per sensor, peak power, status, witness posts, first press article, aircraft observed on zone.

active

active_fires

Fire clusters detected by satellite over the last N hours (default 24), worldwide or filtered by ISO-2 country, bounding box, or a point with a radius. Returns up to `limit` clusters ranked by relevance (corroborated and recent first). Use for 'is there a fire near X right now' or 'wildfires in <country> today'. Each cluster: position, first/last satellite pass (UTC), detections per sensor, peak fire radiative power (MW), confidence (possible | probable | corrobore = cross-checked with witnesses).

earliness

earliness_cases

Automatic geographic matches between satellite and press timestamps over 72 h. Includes positive and negative gaps; median over all valid matches. Not kanari alert publication time, not proof of distinct fires or a lead over emergency services. Source article links when available.

firefighting

firefighting_aircraft

Near real-time ADS-B positions of water bombers and firefighting helicopters worldwide (Canadair CL-415/CL-215, Air Tractor Fire Boss, DC-10 / BAe 146 tankers, S-64 Air Crane, Firehawk…). Optional ISO-2 filter on the aircraft's country of registration. Coverage and aircraft identification are incomplete; some equipped helicopters also operate at night.

wildfire

wildfire_stats

Aggregated figures from kanari's archive for a period (today, 7d, 30d, a calendar month, or all since 2026-08-03), worldwide or for one ISO-2 country: number of significant fires, active ones, fires with witnesses or aircraft, peak power, daily series, most affected countries and French departments, biggest fires with URLs. Includes a ready-to-cite sentence with the source.

kanari wildfires — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can kanari wildfires do?

It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: active_fires, earliness_cases, fire_archive_search, fire_details, firefighting_aircraft, wildfire_stats. 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 kanari wildfires working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 123 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists kanari wildfires as active — why does it not respond?

The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.

How do I connect kanari wildfires?

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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does kanari wildfires need an API key?

No. kanari wildfires completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

Is kanari wildfires open source?

We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 1 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
