# Stormglass Io — how to use (mcp.ai)

Connect your Stormglass Io account and use 6 tools for developer tools straight from your AI agent. Connect with your own API key. stormglass.io provides a global weather API offering high-resolution forecasts and historical data from trusted meteorological institutions.

## Option A — via MCP (recommended)
Remote MCP endpoint (HTTP, streamable): `https://api.mcp.ai/p_stormglass_io?ms=1787296080000`
Add it as a custom/remote MCP connector in your client (Claude, Cursor, VS Code…), then authenticate when prompted. Once connected, ask the agent to use the server's tools (e.g. `stormglass_io_get_elevation_point`).

## Option B — via direct REST API
Base URL: `https://api.mcp.ai/api/stormglass_io`
Auth: `Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…` — create a workspace API key at https://mcp.ai/settings/api-keys
Discover endpoints: `GET https://api.mcp.ai/api/stormglass_io/_endpoints`
