MCP Tenki

You can run a weather-focused MCP server that delivers Japan weather data to clients using the MCP protocol. This setup uses lightweight MCP runners to load the Tenki weather module and expose its functionality to connected MCP clients.

How to use

To use this MCP server, you will run it through an MCP runner and point your client to it. The server configuration supports two modes: a quick run without cloning the repository and a run that uses a local clone of the project. In both cases, your MCP client interacts with the same weather data source, returning forecasts and weather information for Japan.

How to install

Prerequisites: ensure you have the MCP runner available on your system. The setup uses a CLI that supports simple commands to load and run MCP modules.

{{.HOME}}/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tenki": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/acxelerator/mcp-tenki.git", "mcp-tenki"]
    }
  }
}

If you prefer working with a local clone of the project, add a separate run configuration that uses the local directory and starts the Python entry point for the server.

{{.HOME}}/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tenki": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["--directory", "/PATH/TO/REPOSITORY/mcp-tenki/mcp_tenki", "run", "main.py"]
    }
  }
}

Additional content

Notes:

• The quick run uses the project’s MCP module name and loads it from the repository URL provided.
• The clone-based run uses a local path to the repository and starts the main entry point for the server.
• No extra environment variables are shown in the source, so there are no additional env vars needed for these configurations at this time.
