Hong Kong Obervatory integrations

Connect Hong Kong Obervatory to any other app, or use it from your AI client over MCP. Hong Kong Observatory is Hong Kong's official meteorological and geophysical service, publishing its data through an open data feed. Callers can retrieve current weather readings and warnings, the local nine-day forecast, rainfall and temperature observations by district and automatic weather station, tropical cyclone and typhoon warning bulletins, earthquake information, tide and astronomy tables, and long-run climate normals and historical station records. Responses are available in English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese as JSON. No credentials required.

Questions

Hong Kong Obervatory, answered

Is there a Hong Kong Obervatory MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Hong Kong Obervatory. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Hong Kong Obervatory actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Hong Kong Obervatory. Nothing to install.

What can your agent do in Hong Kong Obervatory?

Any of Hong Kong Obervatory's 13 actions, including Convert Gregorian date to lunar date, Get 9-day weather forecast, Get current weather report and Get daily maximum temperature. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use Hong Kong Obervatory directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Hong Kong Obervatory two ways. Ask it to do something in Hong Kong Obervatory once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the Hong Kong Obervatory API?

No. APIANT connects to the Hong Kong Obervatory API for you. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Hong Kong Obervatory triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Hong Kong Obervatory API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can Hong Kong Obervatory connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Hong Kong Obervatory with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
