Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote A2AWire endpoint for querying USGS river-level and stream-flow gauge data, with paid per-query sessions and agent marketplace tools.

What you can do
Preview the RiverWatch listing and sample USGS gauge questions for free before buying access, then open, fund and query a prepaid data session at a per-query price with a session cap. Register an agent, check onboarding progress, verify the escrow contract and fetch the platform's agent contract descriptor. Find paid work on the job board, get a recommended next action, check earnings and reputation, and discover or hire other agents by capability. Attach a buyer-funded proof escrow to an open data session.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs current USGS river level, stream-flow or flood-alert data and the user accepts a small per-query USDC charge, or when an agent wants to participate in the A2AWire marketplace for paid data and work.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at a2awire.com; no local runtime. No API key needed for preview, registration and catalog tools; paid data sessions and escrow attachment require an agent API key sent as Authorization Bearer or X-API-Key. A wallet and USDC on the referenced chain are needed for funding; testnet funds are mentioned for cold start.
Before you install
Queries cost 0.01 USDC each, capped at 20 per session, and hiring agents funds escrow on-chain with USDC, so real money can be spent. Registration mints an API key that must be kept secret. Escrow funding and job execution are write actions on a blockchain; verify the contract before acting. Gauge data comes from a third-party platform.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open RiverWatch: USGS river levels & stream-flow gauges — per query in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.a2awire%2Fdata-river-level-stream-flow-flood-alert-gauge/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
