\n\n---\n\n## Tools\n\n4 tools for querying global earthquake data from USGS and EMSC:\n\n| Tool | Description |\n|:---|:---|\n| `earthquake_get_feed` | Fetch a USGS pre-computed real-time earthquake feed by magnitude tier and time window |\n| `earthquake_search` | Search earthquakes by time range, magnitude, depth, location radius, PAGER alert level, or felt reports |\n| `earthquake_count` | Count earthquakes matching filters without fetching full records |\n| `earthquake_get_event` | Fetch complete detail for a specific earthquake by USGS event ID |\n\n### `earthquake_get_feed`\n\nFetch a USGS pre-computed real-time earthquake feed by magnitude tier and time window.\n\n- CDN-cached by USGS — faster and more available than the FDSN query API\n- Five magnitude tiers: `all` (microseisms), `1.0`, `2.5`, `4.5`, and `significant` (USGS-curated by magnitude, felt reports, and PAGER impact)\n- Four time windows: `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`\n- Returns event list with counts and the source feed URL\n- Paged with an opaque `cursor`: `limit` bounds a page (default 100, max 1000), `totalCount` reports the whole feed, and `nextCursor` retrieves the rest — the broad tiers run past 10,000 events for `month`\n- The cursor is opaque because these feeds have no upstream paging parameter and USGS regenerates them about once a minute; a numeric offset across two calls would skip or repeat events\n- Best for real-time \"what's happening now\" queries; use `earthquake_search` for historical or filtered queries\n\n---\n\n### `earthquake_search`\n\nSearch earthquakes by time range, magnitude, depth, location radius, PAGER alert level, or felt reports.\n\n- Dual-source: USGS (global, richer metadata) or EMSC (an independent global catalog from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre, for cross-verification anywhere)\n- Full FDSN ComCat query API parameters: time range, magnitude, depth, location radius\n- USGS-specific filters: PAGER alert level (`green`/`yellow`/`orange`/`red`), DYFI felt reports count, significance score, event type\n- Every event carries an `event_type` in one vocabulary whichever source served it — the QuakeML names USGS publishes (`earthquake`, `quarry blast`, `explosion`, `ice quake`); EMSC's two-character code is decoded to the same names, with how sure EMSC was kept beside it in `event_certainty` — and the `event_type` filter narrows to one of them on USGS\n- Location-based queries: provide `latitude`, `longitude`, and `radius_km` together\n- Rectangular study areas: `min_latitude`, `max_latitude`, `min_longitude`, `max_longitude`, each independently optional and forwarded to both sources; combining a box with the radius circle intersects the two. Longitude accepts up to ±360 so a box can cross the antimeridian\n- Sort by time (newest first) or magnitude (largest first), ascending or descending\n- One call returns at most 20,000 events; page beyond that with `offset`, forwarded straight to the upstream FDSN `offset` parameter on both sources\n- `offset` counts from 1, matching both upstream APIs — a capped result carries `totalCount` and the `nextOffset` to pass on the following call, and says so with `countUnavailable` when the follow-up count query failed rather than leaving the total silently absent\n- Use `earthquake_count` first to gauge result size\n- USGS-specific filters are not supported by EMSC — when `source=emsc` they are dropped and named in `ignoredFilters`, so an unconstrained result set is never mistaken for a filtered one\n\n---\n\n### `earthquake_count`\n\nCount earthquakes matching filters without fetching full records.\n\n- Lightweight alternative to `earthquake_search` for statistical queries (\"how many M5+ events in 2025?\")\n- Same filter surface as `earthquake_search`: time, magnitude, depth, location radius, bounding box, PAGER, DYFI, significance, event type\n- A radius over a mining region counts quarry blasts alongside earthquakes — pass `event_type=\"earthquake\"` on USGS to exclude them\n- Returns `exceeds_limit` flag when count exceeds 20,000 — signals a full search needs paging\n- Echoes the effective query back as `queryEcho`, including the resolved time window — omitting `start_time` counts only the last 30 days\n- USGS returns the `max_allowed` cap (20,000); EMSC count endpoint does not expose this field (`max_allowed` will be null)\n- USGS-specific filters are dropped and named in `ignoredFilters` when `source=emsc`, the same as on `earthquake_search`\n\n---\n\n### `earthquake_get_event`\n\nFetch complete detail for a specific earthquake by USGS event ID.\n\n- Returns the normalized event a search result already carries, plus `detail` — a projection of the analysis products only the single-event response holds\n- `detail` groups: PAGER alert and report link, ShakeMap peak MMI/PGA/PGV and intensity map, DYFI response count and max CDI, moment-tensor scalar moment and nodal planes, landslide and liquefaction alerts, origin quality (azimuthal gap, station count, location and depth uncertainty), finite-fault rupture length and width\n- A group is omitted when USGS produced no such product — a small automatic event usually has none, a large reviewed one has most of them\n- Event IDs appear in the `id` field of `earthquake_get_feed` and `earthquake_search` results (e.g. `us6000sznj`, `hv74966427`)\n- USGS-only — EMSC events have no per-event detail endpoint\n\n## Resources\n\n| Type | URI pattern | Description |\n|:---|:---|:---|\n| Resource | `earthquake://feed/{magnitude_tier}/{time_window}` | USGS real-time earthquake feed as injectable context — returns the whole feed, so use the `earthquake_get_feed` tool for the broad tiers |\n| Resource | `earthquake://event/{event_id}` | Full USGS earthquake event detail by ID as injectable context, including the same `detail` product projection as `earthquake_get_event` |\n\n## Features\n\nBuilt on [`@cyanheads/mcp-ts-core`](https://github.com/cyanheads/mcp-ts-core):\n\n- Declarative tool definitions — single file per tool, framework handles registration and validation\n- Unified error handling across all tools\n- Pluggable auth (`none`, `jwt`, `oauth`)\n- Swappable storage backends: `in-memory`, `filesystem`, `Supabase`, `Cloudflare KV/R2/D1`\n- Structured logging with optional OpenTelemetry tracing\n- Runs locally (stdio/HTTP) or on Cloudflare Workers from the same codebase\n\nEarthquake-specific:\n\n- Two independent global data sources: USGS ComCat (full metadata) and EMSC SeismicPortal (an independent catalog from the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre, with no PAGER/DYFI/ShakeMap metadata and station coverage densest around Europe and the Mediterranean)\n- USGS real-time GeoJSON feeds (CDN-cached, fast availability) plus FDSN event query API\n- EMSC FDSN-WS event and count endpoints\n- No API key required — both USGS and EMSC are fully public\n\nAgent-friendly output:\n\n- Source attribution on every response (`usgs` / `emsc`) so agents can reason about data provenance\n- `exceeds_limit` flag on count responses surfaces truncation risk before a full search\n- Fields a source does not publish come back `null`, never as a fabricated zero — `tsunami` and `status` are null on EMSC events, and the rendered text says \"not published by source\" rather than \"no tsunami\" or \"reviewed\"\n- `source_catalog` and `auth` carry provenance (which catalog and which authoritative agency produced a solution) so agents can weigh two sources against each other\n- USGS-only filters dropped for an EMSC query are named in `ignoredFilters` on both `earthquake_search` and `earthquake_count`\n- An upstream rejection surfaces the service's own explanation (the offending parameter and its accepted format) in the error message, not just a status code; when the service explains nothing, the error says so under its own reason rather than passing the raw upstream body through\n- `event_type` travels with every event, so a quarry blast or explosion is never silently read as an earthquake, and `event_certainty` keeps a suspected one from reading as confirmed\n\n## Getting started\n\n### Public Hosted Instance\n\nA public instance is available at `https://earthquake.caseyjhand.com/mcp` — no installation required.
