Details
From the project READMEWorld Weather Online — MCP Server (Railway)
MCP server for World Weather Online. Lets AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and others call WWO weather data directly as tools.
Deploy to Railway
Step 1 — Push to GitHub
- Create a new repository on github.com (call it
wwo-mcp-server) - Open Terminal in this folder and run:
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/wwo-mcp-server.git
git push -u origin main
Step 2 — Deploy on Railway
- Go to https://railway.app and sign up / log in with GitHub
- Click New Project → Deploy from GitHub repo
- Select your
wwo-mcp-serverrepository - Railway detects Node.js automatically and deploys
Your server will be live at a URL like:
https://wwo-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app
Step 3 — Add Custom Domain
-
In Railway dashboard → your project → Settings → Networking → Custom Domain
-
Type
mcp.worldweatheronline.comand click Add -
Railway shows you a CNAME value like:
wwo-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app -
Go to your DNS provider and add:
Type Name Value CNAME mcp wwo-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app -
SSL certificate is provisioned automatically within minutes
Step 4 — Test
Visit your health endpoint:
https://mcp.worldweatheronline.com/health
Test in MCP Inspector:
https://mcp.worldweatheronline.com/mcp?key=YOUR_WWO_API_KEY

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
