Connect any MCP-compatible agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code) to Gillby, a guide to Florida water. Public data needs no API key, no login, no signup: point your agent at https://www.gillby.com/mcp and ask.

Why Gillby exists

I'm newer to boating. I'm not from Florida, but I've been down here for years. My wife said it first: it was way too hard to get a good read on the weather without checking five different things, and when we asked an AI, it didn't have good answers on its own.

So I built Gillby. It's a hobby and a passion project: one map and one clock for a day on Florida water, plus this MCP server so your assistant can answer from real water data instead of guessing. More in Why I built Gillby.

"Can I run Boca Inlet tomorrow morning?" · "Is the Gulf Stream close off Palm Beach?" · "Any red tide on the Gulf coast?" · "Will my 2.5 ft draft make it to the sandbar at low tide?"

What makes it different

  • One map, one clock. Wind, waves, tide, radar and lightning line up on the same timeline, per spot.
  • Chop for your boat. Ride comfort accounts for boat size and hull, so a 21-foot center console gets a different answer than a big sportfish.
  • Bridge clearance at today's tide. 97 bridges, with charted clearance adjusted for the NOAA tide prediction and the nearest live water-level gauge when it passes checks.
  • Calibrated rain and thunder chances. Probabilities are recalibrated against airport observations, so a stated chance matches how often it actually rains.
  • A 16-day outlook with honest confidence. Ensemble ranges and a trend against normal. From day 10 on, every day is labeled "Low confidence: trend only."
  • Sources stay attached. Every answer carries source names, observation times, freshness and anything unavailable.

Evals

evals/ holds 6 cases (spot conditions, go/no-go, route asks for draft, kite asks for wind range, swim no-go with no wading, captain agent). MCP calls are answered by mocks recorded from the live server (evals/mocks/gillby/), so runs need no network access to Gillby.

Tools

105 tools on the hosted server, generated from the live tool reference. Start with list_spots and get_conditions with view=summary; that one result carries the forecast, tides, scores, advisories, hazards, lightning and source freshness.

Start here (8)

ToolWhat it does
get_briefingA short headline + <=60-word body written from the live data (numbers validated against the fact sheet; falls back to a template when no model is available). source says claude/openai/template. Rate limited: may call an LLM on a cold cache.
get_conditionsThe full conditions bundle for a named spot: current waves (ft, s, deg FROM), wind (kt), tide (ft MLLW), water temp (F), activity scores with reasons, 7-day hourly forecast, hi/lo tides, best windows, NWS alerts, rip/red tide/bacteria hazards, lightning and an AI briefing. Kitesurf: kiteboarding contains rider-specific weather screening and unverified launch status; supply kiteStyle, kiteExperience, kiteMinWindKt and kiteMaxWindKt. No overall kite score or verified launch is implied. Activities: kite, surf, skim (flatland), skim-wave (wave riding), paddle (flatwater paddleboard), sup-surf (SUP surf). Skim scores are absent without shoreline observations; do not substitute other activity scores. Prefer view=summary unless you need every hour. boat= adds boat-specific chop comfort. For an arbitrary lat/lon use get_point_conditions. Start here for a current spot question with view=summary: this single result includes forecast, tides, scores, advisories, hazards, lightning and source status. Avoid duplicate hazard/tide calls unless a needed detail is absent. For beach questions, sea-model wave heights and NWS breaking-surf heights measure different things; their difference alone is not a forecast conflict. A swim no-go must not be followed by a recommendation to wade. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current. For kitesurfing use get_conditions with kiteStyle (freeride/waves/foil), kiteExperience and rider-supplied kiteMinWindKt/kiteMaxWindKt. Read kiteboarding for weather screening, gust spread and explicitly unverified launch status. Never infer the rider wind range, legal launch access or rescue coverage. Activity keys: kite, surf, skim (flatland), skim-wave (wave riding), paddle (flatwater paddleboard), sup-surf (SUP surf). Skim suitability is unscored without shoreline observations; missing scores must not inherit another activity. Offshore wind can favor surf while increasing paddleboard drift risk. A point depth cannot prove route clearance. Do not invent detection percentages, future readings, vessel ownership, or app settings instructions.
get_data_coveragePublished dataset inventory and verified spot coverage; distinguishes unavailable data.
get_healthRolls up whether the ingest worker is running, which feed families (ndbc, coops, nws, openmeteo, goes19, coastwatch...) have stale sources, government dataset status and the GLM lightning feed. status is ok | degraded | down; HTTP 503 only when down. Check this before trusting 'no data' from other tools. detail=true lists every source.
get_release_updatesRead the current Gillby release version, date, supported MCP protocol and dated changes shared by the API and MCP. API URL versions are separate from product release versions.
get_source_statusFresh, stale, unavailable and QC-rejected sources used by spot conditions.
get_spotA single spot record plus now.scores (go/caution/nogo per activity for the current hour) when the worker has scored it.
list_spotsEvery named Florida spot the app scores, with its lat/lon, kind, region and the NOAA stations used for it. Use the returned id with conditions, forecast, tides, hazards and briefing tools. include=status adds the current-hour go/caution/nogo band per activity. Use this for a map of verified coastal spots: the MCP app panel renders an interactive Florida map with selectable spots, nearby camera markers and conditions. Coordinates are geographic locations, not safe navigation routes.

Forecast and conditions (23)

ToolWhat it does
compare_spotsCompare current conditions for up to five verified comma-separated spot IDs. Partial failures remain explicit.
get_activity_scoresHourly published activity scores with reasons and vetoes. Missing activity scores are unscored.
get_air_temperatureAir temperature for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_chopBoat ride and chop (use get_chop_history for past trends) for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention. For chop history or trends use get_chop_history with a verified spot ID. Preserve recorded versus reconstructed provenance, native 0–10 index and labels, coverage and gaps. Never invent assistant-defined rough/calm thresholds or silently substitute wave/wind series for native chop.
get_chop_historyGillby's native 0-10 chop series: the latest 72 hours publicly, up to 31 days with a free Gillby account (OAuth sign-in); daily mean/max, coverage and 7-day trends. Recorded outputs and historical model reconstructions are identified separately. Never replace these with assistant-defined Calm/Moderate/Rough cutoffs or fabricate gaps. For chop history or trends use get_chop_history with a verified spot ID. Preserve recorded versus reconstructed provenance, native 0–10 index and labels, coverage and gaps. Never invent assistant-defined rough/calm thresholds or silently substitute wave/wind series for native chop.
get_cloud_coverCloud cover for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_currentsPredicted inlet currents for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_departure_windowsPublished best windows filtered by activity. No windows means none were supplied, not a guarantee that every other hour is unsafe.
get_forecastHourly forecast for a spot (or lat+lon) starting at time (default now) for hours hours: waves, swell/wind-wave split, wind, gusts, tide, current, precip/thunder chance, and go/caution/nogo scores with reasons per activity. Also returns 7 daily score rows and best windows.
get_gulf_streamApproximate Gulf Stream edge for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
get_historyRead stored observations or forecast history for source and var. Forecast source uses forecast:model and requires spot. Public access covers the latest 72 hours; a free Gillby account (OAuth sign-in) allows windows up to 31 days; up to 1000 points. Latest revision/run wins. Rejected and suspect rows are excluded; unreviewed rows retain quality metadata. This is a stored source archive. source=forecast:* returns model estimates or predictions, even when valid times are in the past; it does not establish observed rainfall. For measured historical daily precipitation use get_rainfall_history and preserve coverage. For chop trends use get_chop_history with recorded/reconstructed provenance and gaps.
get_observationsActual buoy and station observations for a spot with timestamps. These may differ from blended forecast conditions.
get_pressureAir pressure for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_rainRain forecast probability and amount for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_rainfall_historyObserved daily precipitation from NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily at one of six selected Florida airport stations, not archived forecasts. Required station, start and end (YYYY-MM-DD); completed dates only, 1900 onward, at most 366 inclusive days per request. Public, no API key. Returns daily values in inches, original flags, coverage, monthly summaries and totals. totalIn is null for incomplete coverage; partialTotalIn is only the sum of accepted reported values. Trace is not dry. Presumed-zero, incomplete-period and quality-flagged reports are excluded. Reporting dates are station climate days, not UTC hours. A station does not measure rainfall at a nearby beach, inlet or across a region. Recent records may lag or be revised. Use for how much precipitation fell: NOAA observed station records, not forecast archives. Preserve station, reporting dates, trace days, missing/excluded counts and coverage. Never present partialTotalIn as a complete monthly/yearly total. Station rainfall is not an area-wide measurement. Use get_rain for future amounts and get_history source=forecast:om_weather_best var=precip_in only for archived model estimates.
get_surf_forecastNWS surf zone forecast for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
get_thunder_forecastThunderstorm forecast for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_uv_forecastUV forecast for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_visibilityAtmospheric visibility for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_water_temperatureWater temperature for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_wave_modelsPublished wave-model series and model spread for a spot; absent models stay unavailable.
get_wavesWave height, period and swell for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.
get_windWind and gusts for a verified spot over the next hours. Includes timestamp, source status and explicit nulls when unavailable. Water temperature is F; atmospheric visibility is mi, not underwater visibility; current sign follows the assigned station convention.

Tides, hazards and alerts (11)

ToolWhat it does
get_derelict_vesselsReported derelict vessels from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_hazardsActive NWS marine/coastal alerts (small craft, rip current, high surf, special marine, waterspout...) plus water hazards for a spot or lat+lon: rip current risk, red tide (FWC samples), bacteria (FDOH), sargassum, water clarity, king tide, Gulf Stream distance, lightning. Use before recommending swimming, diving or running an inlet. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current. For kitesurfing use get_conditions with kiteStyle (freeride/waves/foil), kiteExperience and rider-supplied kiteMinWindKt/kiteMaxWindKt. Read kiteboarding for weather screening, gust spread and explicitly unverified launch status. Never infer the rider wind range, legal launch access or rescue coverage. Activity keys: kite, surf, skim (flatland), skim-wave (wave riding), paddle (flatwater paddleboard), sup-surf (SUP surf). Skim suitability is unscored without shoreline observations; missing scores must not inherit another activity. Offshore wind can favor surf while increasing paddleboard drift risk. A point depth cannot prove route clearance. Do not invent detection percentages, future readings, vessel ownership, or app settings instructions.
get_hurricane_historySearch 26 completed seasons of NOAA NHC HURDAT2 best-track history (2000–2025), Atlantic and eastern/central Pacific. Includes tropical cyclones, not only hurricanes. Filter by basin, year range, name, storm ID, hurricane strength or recorded landfall. Paginated summaries by default; includeTrack=true returns UTC positions, sustained wind kt, pressure mb, status, special-event flags and 34/50/64 kt wind radii in nautical miles ordered NE, SE, SW, NW. Missing measurements are null. Landfall flags cover any coastline, not specifically the US. Finalized retrospective tracks are not forecasts; current 2026 advisories use get_hurricanes. Historical tracks alone do not measure local damage or future risk.
get_hurricanesActive NHC tropical cyclones in the Atlantic and eastern/central Pacific. Returns position, maximum sustained wind (kt), pressure (mb), movement (degrees toward and kt), advisory timestamps and official advisory/forecast/cone links. Preserve stale/unavailable status. An empty active-storm list does not rule out developing systems or local hazards. The cone is not an impact boundary. Follow official local warnings.
get_king_tideKing tide forecast for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
get_lightningGOES-19 GLM lightning. With lat+lon: level (clear | watch 10-25 mi | danger < 10 mi in the last 5 min), nearest strike distance (mi) and time, strikes in 15 min, all-clear time (30 min after the last strike within 10 mi), SPC thunder outlook, and the last 30 min of flashes. Without lat/lon: status per spot. When the feed is stale, status is null and unavailableReason explains why (never a false 'clear'). Prefer list_spots for named spot coordinates. State no flashes detected in the observed window rather than no lightning exists. Stale/incomplete coverage means unknown. Do not supply detection rates that are absent from this result. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current. For kitesurfing use get_conditions with kiteStyle (freeride/waves/foil), kiteExperience and rider-supplied kiteMinWindKt/kiteMaxWindKt. Read kiteboarding for weather screening, gust spread and explicitly unverified launch status. Never infer the rider wind range, legal launch access or rescue coverage. Activity keys: kite, surf, skim (flatland), skim-wave (wave riding), paddle (flatwater paddleboard), sup-surf (SUP surf). Skim suitability is unscored without shoreline observations; missing scores must not inherit another activity. Offshore wind can favor surf while increasing paddleboard drift risk. A point depth cannot prove route clearance. Do not invent detection percentages, future readings, vessel ownership, or app settings instructions.
get_marine_alertsActive and upcoming alerts for a spot, retaining start/end times and source links.
get_navigation_noticesUSCG local notices to mariners from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_park_alertsCoastal national park alerts and closures from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_rip_riskRip current risk for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
get_tidesPredicted high and low tides (ft above MLLW, NOAA CO-OPS) for the next days days at a spot or lat+lon, the hourly tide height curve and inlet current (kt, + flood / - ebb), plus sunrise/sunset and moon phase. Times are ISO with the Eastern offset. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current. For kitesurfing use get_conditions with kiteStyle (freeride/waves/foil), kiteExperience and rider-supplied kiteMinWindKt/kiteMaxWindKt.

Activity keys: kite, surf, skim (flatland), skim-wave (wave riding), paddle (flatwater paddleboard), sup-surf (SUP surf). Skim suitability is unscored without shoreline observations; missing scores must not inherit another activity. Offshore wind can favor surf while increasing paddleboard drift risk. A point depth cannot prove route clearance. Do not invent detection percentages, future readings, vessel ownership, or app settings instructions.

Routes, depth and boats (7)

ToolWhat it does
check_route_conditionsWeather and marine conditions at up to five ordered spot IDs. Checks sampled stops only; does not create a navigable route or check depth, bridges, zones, or conditions between stops.
get_boatA single boat record from the library.
get_depthActual NOAA ENC chart depth and optional DEM depth at a Florida coordinate, with charted hazards, channel context and restriction zones. A point check does not prove clearance along a route. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current.

Skim suitability is unscored without shoreline observations; missing scores must not inherit another activity. Offshore wind can favor surf while increasing paddleboard drift risk. A point depth cannot prove route clearance. Do not invent detection percentages, future readings, vessel ownership, or app settings instructions.
list_boatsBoats with published specs (LOA, beam, draft, deadrise, weight, hull type, fuel, cruise speed) and their sources. Pass a boat id to conditions/forecast/routes for boat-specific comfort and draft. The user's boat is contender-21-open-2008.
list_bridgesSearch published bridges by name or west,south,east,north bbox. Verify access and operating details with the facility. Bridge data is published, not a live clearance calculation.
list_sandbarsSearch published sandbars by name or west,south,east,north bbox. Verify access and operating details with the facility. Bridge data is published, not a live clearance calculation. For a named recreational/scored spot such as Lake Boca Sandbar, use list_spots first to get verified coordinates and IDs. This search is for places absent from the spot catalog; avoid repeated searches for an already cataloged spot.
plan_routeRequires a free Gillby account (OAuth sign-in). Chart-aware water routing between from/to spot IDs or lat,lon. Supply a confirmed library boat ID or measured draft, with beam, airDraft, ukc, bridgeMargin and speed overrides in feet/knots. Checks chart depths and tides along the geometry, samples across supplied beam, identifies bridges and restrictions, checks predicted MHW bridge clearance when data permits, and adds route weather samples. Does not infer saved vessel settings. Supports ordered via stops and a hard corridor=icw constraint. Cold charts may take 110 seconds. Interpretation: omit boat unless the user supplied or confirmed it. Describe lightning as flashes observed or not detected in the stated window, never a clear/safe guarantee. Report unavailable/QC-failed sources even when freshness.stale=false; fresh does not mean every source is usable. Model sea height is not breaking surf height. Tide heights at different local MLLW gauges do not establish relative channel depths. High tide is not necessarily slack current.

get_florida_riversFlorida NOAA river and water gauges, observed readings and separate forecast summaries from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_jellyfish_observationsPublished Florida jellyfish, box jellyfish and man-of-war observations from OBIS and iNaturalist, with observation dates, uncertainty, observer credits and licenses. Includes official Boca Raton/Fort Lauderdale lifeguard-report links. Community records are not live beach warnings; no sightings does not establish absence. Man-of-war are siphonophores. Use bbox to narrow the sample; limit defaults to 20 (maximum 100). Shark, jellyfish and man-of-war records are dated published observations, not live tracking, beach warnings, abundance estimates or swimming-safety scores. Preserve observation dates, uncertainty, attribution and source availability. No records does not mean the animals are absent. Source checked time is not observation time. Man-of-war are siphonophores, not true jellyfish. Local lifeguard links are not ingested current warnings; check the source report date. Never apply NOAA's Chesapeake sea-nettle forecast to Florida.

get_sargassumLocal sargassum risk for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
get_sargassum_outlookSargassum research product availability from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_shark_researchPublished Florida shark research occurrences with observation dates, location uncertainty, source credits and licenses. Historical acoustic detections and tag releases, not live shark tracking or beach warnings. No records does not mean sharks are absent. Use bbox to narrow the published sample; limit defaults to 20 (maximum 100). Shark, jellyfish and man-of-war records are dated published observations, not live tracking, beach warnings, abundance estimates or swimming-safety scores. Preserve observation dates, uncertainty, attribution and source availability. No records does not mean the animals are absent. Source checked time is not observation time. Man-of-war are siphonophores, not true jellyfish. Local lifeguard links are not ingested current warnings; check the source report date. Never apply NOAA's Chesapeake sea-nettle forecast to Florida.
get_temperature_frontsSatellite sea temperature fronts from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_usgs_waterUSGS flow, local gauge height, salinity and water temperature from the published agency dataset, with source and availability. Empty reports do not establish safe conditions.
get_water_claritySatellite water clarity for a verified spot. Preserve source sample dates and unavailable states. Satellite clarity is a relative index, not measured dive visibility.
