Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
estimate_electricity |
Estimate CO2 emissions from electricity usage. Returns carbon emissions in grams, kg, and metric tons. Example: estimate_electricity(500, "us", "kwh") for 500 kWh in the US. |
estimate_flight |
Estimate CO2 emissions from a flight. Provide number of passengers and flight legs (departure/arrival airport IATA codes). Returns per-passenger and total carbon emissions. Example: estimate_flight(2, [{"departure_airport": "SFO", "destination_airport": "JFK"}]). |
estimate_vehicle |
Estimate CO2 emissions from driving a vehicle. Provide distance and a vehicle model ID (from Carbon Interface). Returns carbon emissions in grams, kg, and metric tons. Example: estimate_vehicle(100, "7268a9b7-17e8-4c8d-acca-57059252afe9", "mi"). |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"carbon-interface": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/carbon-interface/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Carbon Interface data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
