Shouldigo Surf

orlench/shouldigo-surf-mcp

Connects to the Should I Go? API to check real-time surf conditions across 5,000+ beaches worldwide. Exposes three operations: check_conditions returns a 0-100 score, yes/no/maybe verdict, wave height, wind, water temp, and board recommendations for a specific spot. find_nearest_spot uses coordinates (or auto-detects your location) to find the closest break. list_spots lets you browse available beaches, optionally filtered by country. No API key required, rate limited to 60 requests per 15 minutes. Useful when you want Claude to help decide if it's worth paddling out or recommend surf spots without leaving your editor or chat.
