About
I created an MCP server based on the tutorial with Kotlin.
Explore
- MCP-compatible server written in Kotlin.
- Provides weather information for requested cities.
- Runs via Claude Desktop's MCP infrastructure.
- Uses a single JAR file for easy deployment.
- Requires Java 21.0.2 or higher.
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
us-weather-mcp-serverCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
If you are using the Claude Desktop app with MacOS or Linux, you can find the configuration file at:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
You can use the following configuration to run the MCP server for claude_desktop_config.json. (Required Java 21.0.2 or
higher)
{
"mcpServers": {
"weather": {
"command": "/path/to/java/21.0.2/bin/java",
"args": [
"-jar",
"/path/to/us-weather-mcp-1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar"
]
}
}
}
And then, you can run the MCP server at the Claude Desktop app.
