kardashev-mcp

MCP server for Kardashev Labs US grid data. Gives agents live LMP, carbon intensity, load, curtailment, interconnection queues, ERCOT large loads, and the public RT−DA spread forecast track record. No API key required.

Data comes from the public API at data.kardashevlabs.org.

Tools

Tool	What it returns
`list_isos`	Covered ISOs/RTOs and live ingest status
`get_fuel_mix`	Generation by fuel type (MW)
`get_carbon`	Carbon intensity (lbs CO₂/MWh)
`get_lmp`	Locational marginal prices (RT/DA)
`get_load`	Actual grid load (MW)
`get_load_forecast`	Near-term load forecast
`get_curtailment`	Solar/wind curtailment
`get_queue`	Interconnection queue projects
`get_large_load`	ERCOT large-load interconnection snapshot
`get_spread_forecast`	Live ERCOT RT−DA spread forecast (issued before delivery)
`get_forecast_track_record`	Scored public track record for the spread models

Row-returning tools default to limit=50 (hard max 500) so agents stay within context budgets.

Optional env

Variable	Default	Purpose
`KARDASHEV_BASE_URL`	`https://data.kardashevlabs.org`	Override API base (local data plane)
`KARDASHEV_TIMEOUT_MS`	`30000`	Per-request timeout
