Aviation Radiation API MCP Server

The Aviation Radiation API provides a robust, programmatic interface for accessing critical data and computational models used to quantify ionizing radiation exposure at aviation altitudes.

Quick Start Summary

The Aviation Radiation API MCP server is a Model Context Protocol bridge that connects AI assistants — including Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code Copilot — to the Aviation Radiation API API through natural language. It exposes 7 API endpoints as callable tools, such as The ambient dose equivalent rate calculated for a single particle type, or accumulated over all particle types. , The effective dose rate calculated for a single particle type, or accumulated over all particle types. , The ambient dose equivalent rate calculated for a single particle type, or accumulated over all particle types. , and more. No authentication is required — setup takes approximately 30 seconds. The server uses STDIO transport and can be installed by running npx -y @mcp/amentum-space-aviation-radiation. This integration is sourced from the auto Aviation Radiation API OpenAPI specification (v1.5.0) and has a quality score of 34/99 (fair documentation coverage).

📖 Detailed MCP Integration Guide

A technical breakdown of capabilities, agent workflows, and security/configuration best practices.

⚡Capabilities & Use Cases
The Aviation Radiation API provides a robust, programmatic interface for accessing critical data and computational models used to quantify ionizing radiation exposure at aviation altitudes. The Earth's atmosphere acts as a shield against the constant bombardment of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) and the variable, intense bursts of solar particle events (SPEs) originating from solar flares and coronal mass ejections. This API delivers the outputs of established radiation transport codes, specifically the CARI-7 model used by civil aviation authorities and the PARMA (PHITS-based Analytical Radiation Model in the Atmosphere) model, enabling precise calculation of ambient dose rates and effective dose rates—which account for biological risk—along any flight path. By exposing endpoints that support both standard atmospheric profiles and custom flight routes, the API serves as an essential tool for airlines, aviation safety analysts, meteorological researchers, and regulatory bodies to assess and mitigate radiation risk, ensuring compliance with occupational safety guidelines and informing passenger exposure disclosures.
🤖AI Agent Value
When exposed as tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to an AI coding assistant like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Cline, this API transforms from a static data source into a dynamic component of an intelligent, context-aware development environment. The core value lies in automating the integration of real-time or historical radiation data directly into application logic, flight planning software, or monitoring dashboards without requiring the developer to manually handle API calls, parse complex responses, or understand the underlying models. An AI assistant with access to these MCP tools can instantly retrieve radiation profiles for a given set of coordinates and time, compute dose rates for proposed flight routes, and even compare the outputs of different models (CARI-7 vs. PARMA) to assess uncertainty, all within the natural flow of a conversation about building a flight scheduling or safety system.
💬Example Workflows
A developer can instruct an AI agent to perform a variety of dynamic, sophisticated tasks using the MCP server. For instance, they could ask, "Calculate the effective dose for a proposed polar flight from New York to Beijing at a cruising altitude of 35,000 feet and compare it to the standard transpolar route," prompting the agent to sequentially query the /route/effective_dose endpoint for both paths and synthesize a comparative analysis. Another command like, "Generate a time-series plot of ambient dose rate at flight level FL350 over the North Atlantic for the next 72 hours using space weather forecast data," would leverage the API's temporal parameters to fetch and structure data for visualization. The agent could also be instructed to "Audit our fleet's historical flight plans against the CARI-7 model to identify any routes with an effective dose exceeding 1 mSv per flight," automating a compliance check that would otherwise require manual data collection and processing.
🛡️Security & Auth
While the Aviation Radiation API itself currently requires no authentication, exposing it as an MCP server within a development or enterprise environment demands strict adherence to security best practices. Developers must implement network-level access controls, such as firewalls or API gateways, to ensure only authorized AI tools and systems can reach the server endpoints. It is crucial to follow the principle of least privilege; the MCP server should be configured to grant the AI assistant only the specific tool permissions needed for its defined tasks, preventing unintended exploration of unrelated capabilities. Furthermore, developers should log all queries and responses made through the MCP integration for audit trails, given the data's use in safety-critical applications. Configuration should always occur within a secured development environment before any potential deployment to production systems that handle live flight data.

Box Platform API

The Box Platform API, provided by Box (box.com), is a robust and comprehensive RESTful service that enables deep integration with the Box cloud content management ecosystem. It serves as the programmatic backbone for enterprises and developers seeking to build custom applications and workflows that interact with content stored securely in Box. Its core capabilities extend far beyond basic file operations, encompassing a full spectrum of content lifecycle management. Developers can programmatically create, upload, download, search, and manage files and folders, but the API's true power lies in its enterprise-grade features. These include advanced collaboration management through invitations and permissions, granular user and group administration within an enterprise directory, and sophisticated security and compliance controls. Specific endpoint groups for managing collaboration whitelists and exempt targets allow for precise governance over external sharing policies, ensuring that content is only shared with approved domains. Furthermore, the API facilitates complex legal and compliance use cases, such as placing items on legal hold or applying retention policies, making it an indispensable tool for regulated industries and large organizations.

Asana

This API serves as the programmatic backbone for the Asana work management platform, provided by Asana, Inc. It enables developers to interact programmatically with one of the world's leading enterprise collaboration and productivity suites. The core capabilities of this interface center around the CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations for fundamental Asana objects. Specifically, the provided endpoints grant control over project attachments—allowing for the uploading, retrieval, and management of files associated with tasks and projects—and custom fields, which are pivotal for creating structured, data-rich workflows. These custom fields allow organizations to define unique data types (like dropdown menus, text fields, or dates) to standardize information capture across projects, moving beyond basic task lists to true operational tracking. Typical use cases span from enterprise project management offices (PMOs) needing to programmatically generate status reports and audit attachments, to development teams automating the creation of bug-tracking projects with predefined custom fields for severity and status, to operational leaders building dashboards that aggregate and analyze custom field data for resource allocation insights.
