Measured air quality from physical sensors (OpenAQ v3) — the ground-truth counterpart to modeled air-quality grids. Workflow: openaq_find_locations (find stations near a point / in a bbox / by country) → openaq_get_readings (latest values) or openaq_get_measurements (historical series). An empty find_locations result means NO monitoring coverage, NOT clean air — widen the radius, check openaq_list_countries, or fall back to open-meteo-mcp-server for modeled coverage. Units vary by sensor and are NEVER converted; the same pollutant has multiple parameter ids for different units (use…

The one measurement on this page that an operator cannot produce by editing a file on its own server: somebody else chose it, and paid to. Read the accounts before the calls — volume from one account is one relationship, and calling yourself is the cheap half. Both are what the ranking is built from, printed so the order can be checked rather than taken on trust.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.
openaq_find_locations unknown never probed
Find air-quality monitoring stations (measured by physical sensors, not modeled) near a point, within a bounding box, or by country. Returns each station's id, name, coordinates, distance from the query point (when searching by coordinates), country, provider, the parameters its sensors measure, and the timestamp of its most recent data (datetimeLast). Required first step: openaq_get_readings and openaq_get_measurements key on the location id this returns. Coverage is uneven and real — a station only reports the parameters it measures, and the absence of a nearby station means no monitoring there, not clean air. For dense modeled coverage anywhere on Earth, use open-meteo-mcp-server's air-quality tool instead.

Latest measured value for every sensor at a monitoring station — the current-conditions tool. Returns one record per parameter, each with the value, its unit, the UTC and local timestamp, and the sensor id, joined so every value carries its pollutant and unit (the raw latest feed is keyed only by sensor id). Pass a locationId from openaq_find_locations, or pass coordinates to auto-resolve to the nearest station that measures the requested parametersId. Data recency varies by station reporting cadence — read each value's timestamp to know whether "latest" is minutes or hours old. These are measured observations with coverage gaps, not a modeled grid.

Historical measurement series for one pollutant at one station over a date range — for trend analysis and "was last week worse than the monthly average?". Pass a locationId and a parametersId and work in stations — you get the series for that pollutant at that station. Choose aggregation: raw (every reported value), hourly, or daily — daily and hourly add a per-bucket statistical summary (min, median, max, mean, sd). Large ranges produce thousands of rows and spill to a DataCanvas: the response returns a preview plus a canvasId and table name you query with openaq_dataframe_query. Values carry their unit; the server never converts between µg/m³, ppm, and ppb.

Catalog of every measurable pollutant and its canonical unit: id, code, display name, unit, and a one-line description (pm25, pm10, o3, no2, so2, co, bc, and ~38 more). This is the unit-disambiguation reference — the same pollutant exists under several ids with different units (CO is id 4 in µg/m³, id 8 in ppm, id 102 in ppb), so use this to pick the exact parametersId for openaq_find_locations / openaq_get_readings / openaq_get_measurements and to interpret a reading's unit. A small bounded catalog fetched live from OpenAQ.

Catalog of country-level coverage: id, ISO code, name, the date span of available station data (datetimeFirst/datetimeLast), and which parameters are measured anywhere in that country. The availability check before a regional sweep — answers "which countries have NO2 monitoring?" and tells you whether a country has recent data before you call openaq_find_locations. Coverage is uneven worldwide; this surfaces where measured data exists.

Run a read-only SQL SELECT against the measurement tables openaq_get_measurements staged on a DataCanvas. Reference tables by the name the measurements call returned (measurements_<sensorId>).

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Own the domain? Prove it and the listing carries a verified badge here too: passport.
An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.
MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.
Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
