Tools (33)

Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

  • fa_count_flightsread-only

    Count flights matching a query without returning the flights themselves. Returns { count }. Uses the SIMPLIFIED "-key value" syntax (same as fa_search_flights, NOT the structured grammar of fa_search_flights_advanced). Example: -airline UAL -belowAltitude 30000.

  • fa_create_alert

    Create a flight alert on your AeroAPI account. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one (unless the server sets MCP_CONFIRM_ELICITATION=off); otherwise the first call returns a preview of the request (method, path, body) and a confirmToken, makes NO network call, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE). Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_delete_alertcan change or delete data

    Delete a flight alert by id. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one (unless the server sets MCP_CONFIRM_ELICITATION=off); otherwise the first call returns a preview of the request (method, path, body) and a confirmToken, makes NO network call, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE). Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_foresight_searchread-only

    Predictive flight search via AeroAPI Foresight (Boolean query language, like fa_search_flights_advanced, but predicted data). NOTE: Foresight is a premium tier — expect a 402/403 unless your subscription includes it.

  • fa_get_aircraft_ownerread-only

    Get the registered owner of an aircraft by tail number / registration (e.g. N12345).

  • fa_get_airportread-only

    Get details for an airport by code (ICAO like KJFK, IATA like JFK, or LID).

  • fa_get_airport_delaysread-only

    Get current airport delays — all delayed airports, or just one when `id` is given.

  • fa_get_airport_flight_countsread-only

    Get current flight counts at an airport: { departed, enroute, scheduled_arrivals, scheduled_departures }.

  • fa_get_airport_flightsread-only

    Get a flight board for an airport: all flights, or just arrivals/departures/scheduled_arrivals/scheduled_departures.

  • fa_get_airport_routesread-only

    Get the most popular routes (with aircraft types, counts, and filed altitudes) flown between an origin and destination airport.

  • fa_get_airport_weatherread-only

    Get weather for an airport: current METAR observations, or the TAF forecast.

  • fa_get_alertread-only

    Get a single configured flight alert by its id. Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_get_alerts_endpointread-only

    Get the current delivery (webhook) endpoint configured for your AeroAPI alerts. Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_get_flight_historyread-only

    Get historical flights for an ident (designator, registration, or fa_flight_id) beyond the recent window covered by fa_get_flights. NOTE: historical data requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier — the free Personal tier returns 401.

  • fa_get_flight_map

    Get a rendered map image (PNG) of a flight by fa_flight_id. Writes the PNG to disk (default: $AEROAPI_OUTPUT_DIR, else ~/Downloads/flightaware-mcp) and returns the path, or returns it inline as base64 when inline:true.

  • fa_get_flight_positionread-only

    Get the most recent reported position for an in-air flight by fa_flight_id.

  • fa_get_flight_routeread-only

    Get the decoded route (fixes/waypoints) for a specific flight by fa_flight_id.

  • fa_get_flight_trackread-only

    Get the position track (breadcrumb log) for a specific flight by fa_flight_id.

  • fa_get_flightsread-only

    Get flights for an ident — a flight designator (e.g. UAL123, AAL100), aircraft registration (e.g. N12345), or fa_flight_id. Returns recent, current, and scheduled flights for that ident.

  • fa_get_nearby_airportsread-only

    Find airports near a latitude/longitude within a radius (statute miles).

  • fa_get_operatorread-only

    Get details for an operator (airline) by code (ICAO like UAL, or IATA like UA).

  • fa_get_operator_flightsread-only

    Get a flight board for an operator (airline): all flights, or arrivals/departures/enroute/scheduled.

  • fa_get_scheduled_flightsread-only

    Get airline-scheduled flights between two dates (YYYY-MM-DD), optionally filtered by origin, destination, airline, or flight number.

  • fa_list_airportsread-only

    List airports known to AeroAPI (paged). Use the cursor to page through.

  • fa_list_alertsread-only

    List the flight alerts configured on your AeroAPI account. Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_list_operatorsread-only

    List operators (airlines) known to AeroAPI (paged). Use the cursor to page through.

  • fa_resolve_airportread-only

    Resolve an airport code to its canonical AeroAPI identifier (and equivalents). NOTE: requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier — the free Personal tier returns 401.

  • fa_resolve_flightread-only

    Resolve a flight ident (designator/registration) to its canonical form and any alternate idents. NOTE: requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier — the free Personal tier returns 401.

  • fa_search_flight_positionsread-only

    Search live flight POSITIONS using the structured "{operator key value}" query language (same grammar as fa_search_flights_advanced — NOT the simplified "-key value" syntax). Returns position points rather than flight summaries. Example: {match ident UAL*} {> alt 300}.

  • fa_search_flightsread-only

    Search airborne flights using AeroAPI's simplified query syntax — a single string of "-key value" pairs. Keys: -prefix -type -idents -identOrReg -airline -destination -origin -originOrDestination -aboveAltitude -belowAltitude -aboveGroundspeed -belowGroundspeed -latlong "MINLAT MINLON MAXLAT MAXLON" -filter {ga|airline}. Example: -airline UAL -belowAltitude 30000

  • fa_search_flights_advancedread-only

    Search flights using AeroAPI's full structured query language (more expressive than fa_search_flights). The `query` is a space-separated list of {operator key value} predicates, e.g. "{match ident UAL*} {> alt 300} {= dest KLAX}". Operators: true/false/null/notnull/=/!=/</>/<=/>=, match/notmatch (case-insensitive wildcards), range (two values), in/orig_or_dest/aircraftType/ident/ident_or_reg ({a b c} value lists), airline (1=airline, 0=GA). Common keys: ident, orig, dest (ICAO codes), aircraftType, alt (hundreds of ft), prefix, lifeguard, cancelled, arrived.

  • fa_set_alerts_endpointcan change or delete data

    Set the delivery (webhook) endpoint AeroAPI POSTs alert notifications to. Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one (unless the server sets MCP_CONFIRM_ELICITATION=off); otherwise the first call returns a preview of the request (method, path, body) and a confirmToken, makes NO network call, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE). Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).

  • fa_update_alertcan change or delete data

    Update an existing flight alert (replaces its configuration). Asks the user to confirm first: a confirmation prompt where the client supports one (unless the server sets MCP_CONFIRM_ELICITATION=off); otherwise the first call returns a preview of the request (method, path, body) and a confirmToken, makes NO network call, and only a repeat call with that token proceeds (see MCP_CONFIRM_MODE). Requires a Standard or Premium AeroAPI tier (the free Personal tier returns 401).
