Security Report

6.1
Moderate6.1Moderate Risk

This is a small, read-only MCP server that queries the public USGS Water Services API over HTTPS with no credentials. It makes no shell, filesystem, or environment access, and network_http is expected for its purpose. The only issues are low-severity input validation and robustness gaps that do not materially affect security. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

Query public USGS water observations for stream gauges and watershed research. This is separate from earthquake data and focuses on streamflow and gauge discovery.

Tools

  • get_streamflow: instantaneous observations for a gauge and USGS parameter code. 00060 is the common discharge parameter.
  • find_gauges: find active stream gauges in a min longitude,min latitude,max longitude,max latitude bounding box, with a bounded result count.

The server uses USGS Water Services without an API key. Data can be provisional and may be revised by USGS. Requests time out after 20 seconds.
