Wellness Air
Local-first air-quality MCP for AI agents.
Plug an AirGradient/AirThings/PurpleAir sensor into your agent โ no tokens leave your machine.
๐ก Why this exists: your sleep / focus / training results are partly a room-quality problem. PM2.5 above 35, COโ above 1,000 ppm, low humidity โ those wreck recovery and the agent can't see them. wellness-air gives any AI agent local-first environmental context to cross with WHOOP / Oura / Garmin / nourish.

## HTTP (v2 stateless)
Default is **stdio**. Optional Streamable HTTP โ no session id, JSON responses, loopback only:
```bash
npx -y wellness-air --http
# GET http://127.0.0.1:3000/health
# POST http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp (sessionless)
```
Env: `WELLNESS_AIR_HOST`, `WELLNESS_AIR_PORT`, `WELLNESS_AIR_TRANSPORT=http`.
## Overview
Wellness Air is a local MCP server that exposes air-quality readings to any MCP-aware AI agent. It ships with first-class **AirGradient** support (open hardware + free public API โ no auth needed for the 2,000+ public sensors in the worldwide feed). **AirThings** and **PurpleAir** are implemented (bring your own free API credentials); **IQAir AirVisual** and **Awair** are on the roadmap.
> If wellness-air helps your agent, please star the repo. Stars make the project easier for other AI builders to discover and help Delx keep shipping local-first wellness infrastructure.
## Try It In 60 Seconds
```bash
# 89 is a real, public AirGradient sensor (Prem Tinsulanonda School, Thailand).
# Swap in one near you from https://www.airgradient.com/map/ โ copy the numeric
# locationId from the URL.
WELLNESS_AIR_DEFAULT_LOCATION=89 npx -y wellness-air doctor
WELLNESS_AIR_DEFAULT_LOCATION=89 npx -y wellness-air current
```
That's it โ no token, no signup, no telemetry. Public reads use AirGradient's
token-free worldwide feed, so any locationId in that feed works out of the box.
## Install in Claude Desktop / Cursor / ChatGPT Desktop / Codex
```jsonc
{
"mcpServers": {
"wellness-air": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "wellness-air"],
"env": {
"WELLNESS_AIR_DEFAULT_PROVIDER": "airgradient",
"WELLNESS_AIR_DEFAULT_LOCATION": "89"
}
}
}
}
```
Reload your client. The agent now has 19 air-quality tools.
## Tools (19 total)
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `air_agent_manifest` | Runtime contract: tool list, supported clients, env vars, recommended first calls |
| `air_capabilities` | Supported providers, configured providers, available metrics, privacy modes |
| `air_connection_status` | Health check + warnings the agent should surface |
| `air_privacy_audit` | What is logged locally vs sent to providers |
| `air_data_inventory` | Metric catalog + AQI band thresholds |
| **`air_current_reading`** | **Latest sensor reading (PM2.5, COโ, AQI, temp, humidity)** |
| `air_list_devices` | List devices on an authenticated provider account (AirThings) |
| **`air_aqi_check`** | **Fast 'is the air OK?' answer with band + recommendation** |
| `air_daily_summary` | Synthesized daily snapshot |
| `air_compare_locations` | Compare AQI across 2-10 locations |
| `air_search_public_sensors` | Discovery helper for AirGradient public map |
| `air_quickstart` | Personalized 3-step setup walkthrough based on current env state |
| `air_profile_get` | Read the shared Delx Wellness profile (location, sensitivities, units) |
| `air_profile_update` | Persist a non-secret patch to the shared wellness profile (explicit intent required) |
| `air_onboarding` | 11-question onboarding flow for the shared wellness profile |
| `air_demo` | Realistic example payloads โ preview output before configuring anything |
| `air_health_recommendation` | PM2.5/COโ/VOC โ WHO/EPA bands + plain-language actions |
| `air_health_bands` | Classify PM2.5/PM10/COโ/VOC into WHO 2021 / EPA / ASHRAE / UBA bands + citations |
| `air_trend` | Windowed trend analysis (mean/median/rate-of-change/peaks) for PM2.5/COโ/VOC |
## Why local-first?
- **Public sensors require zero auth.** AirGradient runs an open public API; just pass a `locationId`.
- **Owned-sensor tokens stay on your machine.** Set `AIRGRADIENT_API_TOKEN` only if you own a sensor.
- **No telemetry.** wellness-air never phones home. The only outbound calls go to the providers you configure.
- **Read-only.** No tool mutates anything upstream. (`air_profile_update` writes only to your local shared wellness profile, never to a provider, and requires explicit user intent.)
## Cross-connector wedge
Where this gets interesting: pair it with the rest of the Delx Wellness stack.
```
WHOOP recovery 47 + wellness-air AQI 132 (unhealthy_sensitive)
โ โ
Coach: "Recovery's low AND the bedroom AQI was unhealthy last night.
Skip outdoor cardio today โ try mobility + low-intensity strength indoors with HEPA running."
```
Most agents miss the room-quality variable entirely. wellness-air closes that gap.
## Privacy
Run `wellness-air doctor` to inspect the local privacy posture. Highlights:
- All readings cached under `~/.wellness-air` (configurable).
- Provider tokens never returned to the agent.
- No biometric data โ environmental only.
- Tool outputs explicitly tagged with their data source for downstream auditability.
## Roadmap
**Shipped:** AirGradient (public + owned) ยท AirThings ยท PurpleAir adapters ยท WHO/EPA/ASHRAE/UBA health bands ยท windowed trend analysis (`air_trend`) ยท shared Delx Wellness profile + onboarding.
**Next:**
- IQAir AirVisual + Awair adapters.
- Cross-correlation helper (e.g. `air_correlate_with_sleep`) against the rest of the Delx Wellness stack.
- Webhook trigger for AQI thresholds (agent gets notified when AQI crosses a band).

## Skill or MCP
Same package, two doors. MCP registers tools on stdio/HTTP. The [skill](skill/SKILL.md) can drive the **same** tools through the CLI when the client has no MCP:
```bash
npx -y wellness-air call air_connection_status --json '{}'
```
