Our reading of Windshield Weather, from the data

Windshield Weather is a maps & location MCP server from buildwithchirp, listed in the official MCP Registry.

Its 4 tools add about 1,296 tokens to every model turn, lighter than the maps & location median of 2,331 tokens across 147 measured servers (measured 2026-10-19).

Maintenance is active: the last public signal was 5 days ago (2026-10-13). For comparison, 73% of maps & location servers are active or maintained.

It runs as a hosted endpoint, so there is nothing to install.
