Worth a look
None of the five warning signs in these definitions.
A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work.

search_newsSearch carbon.fyi's curated voluntary carbon market story archive. Each story is an editorially clustered summary of one development, written from one or more original reports, and always carries the original source name and URL. Supply…
get_storyFetch a single story by its id, including every source that reported it. Story ids are permanent — a published story keeps its id and its public URL indefinitely — so they are safe to store.
get_carbon_pricesCurrent voluntary carbon credit prices from two independent sources: per-category minimum/median price and available supply across the Carbonmark marketplace catalog, and spot prices per Klima Protocol carbon class. The two are NOT…
get_price_historyDaily-averaged historical price series. This archive exists only because carbon.fyi records it three times a day: no upstream API serves a historical carbon price series, so these observations cannot be obtained anywhere else and cannot…
get_market_summaryOne call for orientation: how much of the archive is available, when it last updated, the story-tag breakdown (use these as `tag` values for search_news), and the current price table. Start here.
list_sourcesThe publications, registries and integrity bodies carbon.fyi monitors. Useful for judging coverage — a topic absent from the archive may simply not be covered by these sources.
How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"carbon-fyi": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://www.carbon.fyi/api/mcp"
}
}
}Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
