Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to olyport.com, which also runs its endpoint. That identifies the publisher; it does not make the server's tools safe.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP server that gives an assistant current and historical US Drought Monitor data on drought severity by state and nationwide.

What you can do: Retrieve current drought conditions for a state or area, with the percentage of land at each intensity from None through D4 Exceptional Drought. Pull weekly historical drought severity percentages for a specified area and date range. Get a national summary of the share of the US at each drought level and the total area affected.
When to use it: Useful when you need quick, sourced answers about drought status in a US state or across the country, or want to compare drought severity over recent weeks without visiting the Drought Monitor site.
Requirements: A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no package, account, API key or environment variable is declared. Network access to the endpoint is required.

Before you install

Read-only data retrieval; no writes, credentials or payments are indicated. Figures come from the US Drought Monitor and are updated weekly, so they may lag current conditions.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open US Drought Monitor in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
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.olyport%2Fdrought/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
