Get real-time current weather for any location. Returns temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity, pressure, UV index, visibility, feels-like temperature, and weather condition. Optionally includes air quality (AQI) data.
AI agents call get_current_weather to retrieve information from WeatherAPI MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only retrieves and returns weather data. It has no side effects, does not modify any state, does not execute code or commands, and does not involve financial transactions. The optional AQI data inclusion does not change the fundamental read-only nature of the operation. Appropriate for low severity due to minimal security impact from misuse.

Get real-time current weather for any location. Returns temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity, pressure, UV index, visibility, feels-like temperature, and weather condition. Optionally includes air quality (AQI) data. It is categorised as a Read tool in the WeatherAPI MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the WeatherAPI MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_current_weather: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches WeatherAPI MCP Server. Nothing to install.
get_current_weather is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_current_weather rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_current_weather. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
get_current_weather is provided by the WeatherAPI MCP Server MCP server (weatherapicom/weatherapi-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
