Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security66
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation check failed: no authorisation is required to call this server, and it exposes a tool marked destructive (nausika_manage_boat_profile). See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 5469 tokens (~287/item across 19 items; 19 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 19 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 20 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Nausika MCP server?
Nausika is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.nausika.app/, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

nausika_marine_forecast Marine + Atmospheric Forecast ~899
Marine + atmospheric forecast at (latitude, longitude in decimal degrees). Returns waves, swell, currents, SST, wind, gusts, pressure, weather_code, visibility, precipitation, temperature, UV. Directions FROM. Presets: now, today, tactical (default 3d), planning (8d), extended (14d), none. Windows: start_hour/end_hour, start_date/end_date, forecast_hours, forecast_days. Extra via variables[]. Covers only a rolling window near today (~16 days ahead for atmospheric data, ~8 days for marine/wave data) — for dates further out, use nausika_seasonal_forecast (1-7 month outlook) instead. Pass include_percentiles=true to also fetch the ECMWF IFS-ENS 50-member ensemble and expose <var>_p10/_p50/_p90 series for atmospheric variables (precipitation, wind, gusts, pressure, temperature, etc.) alongside the deterministic forecast. Use it when forecast uncertainty matters — convective setups, planning/extended horizons, or any time the deterministic precip total looks inconsistent with the precipitation_probability. Waves/swell/currents/SST remain deterministic (no public ensemble). Default false to keep payload small. Example: latitude=41.39, longitude=9.16, preset="today". Chain nausika_geocode for place→coords.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| end_date | string | – | Window end date YYYY-MM-DD. Used with start_date. Defaults to preset. Same ~16-day (forecast) / ~8-day (marine) window limit as start_date — use nausika_seasonal_forecast beyond that. |
| end_hour | string | – | Window end ISO YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm. Used with start_hour. Defaults to preset. |

nausika_sea_route Sea Route & Distance ~392
Maritime routing via pgRouting Dijkstra on the MARNET sea-lane graph (Mediterranean only; errors out elsewhere), 6 kn sailing-yacht default, snaps land coordinates to the nearest marina/anchorage/port. Returns distance, ETA, waypoint count, GeoJSON. Examples: - Genova → Bastia: origin_lat=44.4, origin_lon=8.93, dest_lat=42.7, dest_lon=9.45 - Distance-only: same coords with include_waypoints=false Tip: chain nausika_geocode → here → nausika_calculator.

nausika_search_places Search Places ~522
Mediterranean nautical place search by proximity. latitude+longitude are ALWAYS required — this is not a standalone text search. 'query' is only a name filter applied within that radius; to find a place by name without known coordinates, call nausika_geocode first. Returns name, coords, distance_km, ratings, i18n names, wiki/OSM links. Each result is prefixed with an 8-char [xxxxxxxx] short-id usable as place_id in nausika_get_place / nausika_manage_favorite / nausika_manage_rating / nausika_manage_route legs[].pois[]. Inputs: latitude, longitude, radius_km, query, type, types, category, shelter_from, bottom_type, names_lang, min_coverage_score, max_coverage_score, limit, offset. Example: latitude=44.3, longitude=9.21, radius_km=50, query="marina genova", category="poi". Chain nausika_geocode → nausika_search_places → nausika_get_place(short-id).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| bottom_type | string | – | Bottom type filter (e.g. 'sand') |

| longitude | number | – | Center longitude for proximity search |
| max_coverage_score | integer | – | Maximum coverage score 0-100 — filter to low-coverage places that need enrichment |
| min_coverage_score | integer | – | Minimum coverage score 0-100 — filter places by data completeness |
| names_lang | string | – | ISO 639-1 lang code. When set, response `name` is replaced with attributes.i18n.names[lang] if present; canonical OSM name kept as `name_canonical`. |
| offset | integer | – | Offset for pagination |
| query | string | – | Fuzzy text filter on place name, applied WITHIN the proximity search — requires latitude/longitude too, it is not a standalone text search. For 'find this place by name anywhere', use nausika_geocode… |
| radius_km | number | – | Search radius in km (default 50, max 200) |

nausika_seasonal_forecast Seasonal Forecast ~431
Fetch 1-7 month ECMWF SEAS5 seasonal forecast for one Mediterranean point. Returns ensemble-mean DAILY + MONTHLY aggregates of wind, SST, temperature, precipitation, cloud cover (extend via variables[]). NO waves — chain nausika_marine_forecast for short-term wind + waves. Inputs: latitude, longitude, start_date, end_date, variables. Example: latitude=40.12, longitude=9.01, start_date="2026-08-01", end_date="2026-08-31". SEAS5 forecasts forward only: a start_date in the past is clamped to today and an end_date beyond today+210d is clamped to the horizon, both reported in the response. A window that ends in the past is rejected.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| end_date | string | yes | Window end date (UTC, ISO YYYY-MM-DD). Must be ≥ start_date. Dates beyond the SEAS5 horizon (today + 210 days) are clamped — the response reports the adjustment. |
| include_members | boolean | – | When true, expose all 50 ECMWF SEAS5 ensemble members (`<var>_memberNN`) in the response. Default (false) collapses them into `_p10/_p50/_p90` percentile series alongside the ensemble mean — ~20× sma… |
| latitude | number | yes | Latitude in decimal degrees (WGS84, -90 to 90) |
| longitude | number | yes | Longitude in decimal degrees (WGS84, -180 to 180) |
| start_date | string | yes | Window start date (UTC, ISO YYYY-MM-DD). Dates before today are clamped to today (SEAS5 forecasts forward only) — the response reports the adjustment. |

nausika_tides Tides ~414
Tide predictions or station discovery at a coordinate (latitude, longitude). Default: predictions from the nearest NOAA station; outside US waters falls back to a global modeled-tide source (forecast horizon ~15 days — longer windows are truncated, not rejected). Set stations_only=true to discover stations (capped by limit). Tune the window with begin_date (YYYYMMDD) + range_hours, the reference with datum, and output units (metric/english). The modeled path reports range_m (peak-to-trough). Across most of the Mediterranean this is under 0.3 m, i.e. negligible for recreational navigation — the response says so explicitly, and you should not present such values as an actionable tide window. Tides matter on the Atlantic coasts, in the Gulf of Gabès, the northern Adriatic, and in the tidal streams of the Messina and Gibraltar straits. Example: latitude=37.77, longitude=-122.42. Chain nausika_geocode for place→coordinates; pair with nausika_marine_forecast.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| begin_date | string | – | Start date in YYYYMMDD format (defaults to today UTC). |
| datum | string | – | Tidal datum reference (default MLLW) |
| interval | string | – | Interval: 'hilo' for high/low only (default), 'h' for hourly predictions |
| latitude | number | yes | Latitude in decimal degrees (WGS84, -90 to 90) |
| limit | integer | – | Max stations to return in stations_only mode (default 5, max 10). |
| longitude | number | yes | Longitude in decimal degrees (WGS84, -180 to 180) |
| range_hours | integer | – | Duration in hours (default 48, max 744 = ~31 days). |
| stations_only | boolean | – | If true, return nearby stations without fetching predictions (station discovery mode). Defaults to false. |
