Vitamind MCP Overview

JaviMaligno/vitamind-mcp MCP server connects an AI assistant to Vitamin D Explorer for location-based vitamin D estimates. It provides city lookup, sun times, daily and yearly synthesis windows, current UV status, and session estimates using solar geometry, UV models, Open-Meteo weather data, and Fitzpatrick skin types. Use it when an agent needs more specific guidance than a generic sun-exposure duration. The package acts as a stdio-to-HTTP relay to the hosted service and does not require an API key or account for its public tools.

Primary Use Cases for Vitamind MCP:

Check whether vitamin D synthesis is possible today for a city and skin type
Find the months when synthesis is possible at a given latitude
Estimate vitamin D from a completed outdoor session
Retrieve sunrise, sunset, solar noon, and golden-hour times
