Tools & capabilities
Epwforge MCP tools 4
find_stationSearch the ~17,000-station GuzzStations catalog by name, country, or coordinates. Optional `compact=True` returns just the newest TMYx per station (6–10× smaller responses for chained agent workflows).analyze_weatherStatistical summary of an EPW. Three modes: `url=` (single file), `urls=[]` (2–10 file comparison), `config={...}` (synthesize a morphed scenario from lat/lon — no EPW content returned). Optional `include_full_ashrae`, `include_improbability`, `include_idf`.chart_weatherInline SVG chart. Single-EPW types: `diurnal`, `temp_carpet`, `wind_rose`, `monthly_boxplot`, `utci_carpet`, `economizer_carpet`, `pv_tilt_azimuth`, `solar_under_events`. Multi-EPW type: `comparison`.generate_weather_fileGenerate and return a downloadable weather file with the full morph stack. Format = `epw` / `ddy` / `csv` / `zip` / `pvsyst`. Supports `ensemble=true` (all SSPs at once).
Server Everything tools 16
echoEchoes back the input stringget-annotated-messageDemonstrates how annotations can be used to provide metadata about content.get-envReturns all environment variables, helpful for debugging MCP server configurationget-header-paramsReturns its region argument and the Mcp-Param-Region HTTP header it arrived in. Demonstrates x-mcp-header (a 2026-07-28 Streamable HTTP client mirrors the argument into the header) and JSON Schema 2020-12 input and output schemas.get-resource-linksReturns up to ten resource links that reference different types of resourcesget-resource-referenceReturns a resource reference that can be used by MCP clientsget-structured-contentReturns structured content along with an output schema for client data validationget-sumReturns the sum of two numbersget-tiny-imageReturns a tiny MCP logo image.gzip-file-as-resourceCompresses a single file using gzip compression. Depending upon the selected output type, returns either the compressed data as a gzipped resource or a resource link, allowing it to be downloaded in a subsequent request: during the current session for a 2025-era client, or for ten minutes at a minted URI on protocol version 2026-07-28.trigger-list-changedSends a notifications/<list>/list_changed for the tool, prompt or resource list. On protocol version 2026-07-28 it is delivered on each subscriptions/listen stream that asked for that list; a 2025-era client receives it unsolicited.trigger-log-messagesSends one log message at each logging level during the call. On protocol version 2026-07-28 only the messages at or above the level the request names in _meta (io.modelcontextprotocol/logLevel) are sent, and none if it names no level; a 2025-era client gets those at or above the level it set with logging/setLevel. Deprecated: logging is deprecated as of protocol version 2026-07-28.- +4 more on the listing page
