Mcp Weather Gc Ca — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited Mcp Weather Gc Ca (Agent Skill) and scored it 100/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 0 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) GeoMet MCP.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1857+ live data sources. This is an independent, unofficial integration — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream provider.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
current_observations | Latest real-time surface weather observations from Environment Canada stations near a point (swob-realtime). Returns station name, observation time, air temp, dewpoint, humidity, wind, pressure, snow depth. Example: latitude 43.65, longitude -79.38 for Toronto. Keyless, official ECCC data. |
active_alerts | Active Environment Canada weather alerts (warnings, watches, statements) across Canada, optionally filtered near a point. Returns alert name, type, risk colour, affected area, province, effective/expiry times and a text excerpt. Example: latitude 43.65, longitude -79.38 for Toronto-area alerts. Keyless, official ECCC data. |
climate_daily | Daily climate records (max/min/mean temperature °C, total precipitation mm, snow on ground cm) for an Environment Canada station over a date range. Use a 7-digit climate identifier, e.g. "6158355" (TORONTO CITY) or "1108395" (VANCOUVER INTL A). Station IDs come from the climate-stations collection. Keyless, official ECCC data. |
geomet_collections | Directory of every dataset Environment and Climate Change Canada publishes through MSC GeoMet (100+ OGC API Features collections). Returns each collection id, title, description, keywords and geographic extent. Use it to find what Canadian weather, water, air-quality or climate-projection data exists and what its collection id is, before reaching for a purpose-built tool. Example: search "hydrometric" for river gauge datasets, "cmip5" for climate projections, "swob" for surface observations. |
hydrometric_stations_near | Water Survey of Canada river and lake gauges near a point, from the MSC GeoMet hydrometric-stations collection. AUTHORITATIVE for "which gauge measures the <Canadian river> at <place>" — these are the official federal hydrometric stations. Returns station number (the id you pass to hydrometric_realtime), station name, province, active/discontinued status, gross drainage area in km2, whether it reports in real time, and coordinates. Example: latitude 43.65, longitude -79.38 for Toronto-area gauges. |
hydrometric_realtime | Real-time water level (metres) and discharge/flow (m3/s) readings from Water Survey of Canada gauges, typically every 5-15 minutes and covering the last 30 days. AUTHORITATIVE for "how high is the <Canadian river> right now" and for flood watching in Canada. Pass a station number from hydrometric_stations_near, e.g. "02HC003" (HUMBER RIVER AT WESTON), or give latitude/longitude to get the most recent readings from every real-time gauge in the area. Readings come back newest first. |

}tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/weather-gc-ca/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1857+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.
curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/current_observations \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"latitude":43.65,"longitude":-79.38}'No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/current_observations. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.
@pipeworx/mcp-weather-gc-ca is a local stdio bridge to the Pipeworx gateway: your MCP client starts it with npx, and it forwards every call to the same https://gateway.pipeworx.io/weather-gc-ca/mcp endpoint shown above. It needs network access; there is no offline mode.
{
"mcpServers": {
"weather-gc-ca": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-weather-gc-ca"]
}
}
}Without a key it calls anonymously, capped at 50 calls a day. A free account raises that to 200 a day: get a key at https://pipeworx.io/signup and add "env": { "PIPEWORX_API_KEY": "<your key>" } to the server entry. The key is sent as a Bearer token, the same way a hosted connection sends it, so calls are metered and billed exactly as they are there.
It lists only this pack's tools by default. Set PIPEWORX_META_TOOLS=1 to also list ask_pipeworx and the other gateway-wide tools.
Behind an HTTPS proxy: Node's built-in fetch does not read HTTPS_PROXY by default. Newer Node releases honour it when NODE_USE_ENV_PROXY=1 is set; check your Node version's documentation.
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Weather Gc Ca data" })The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
