Tools (21)
As the server describes them. The labels are the server's own: it says whether each tool only reads or can change things.
- search_resortsFind ski resorts worldwide by name, country or distance. Returns at most 20 matches and does not expose the bulk resort index.Read-only
- get_conditionsGet current snow, reported lift and run counts, weather and season state. Lift and run counts are reported status, not guaranteed live.Read-only
- get_forecastGet the available daily snow, temperature, freezing level and wind-hold risk forecast, up to 10 requested days.Read-only
- plan_my_dayBuild modelled suggested runs in time order from forecast weather, sun, snow and mapped terrain. Only plans days inside the reported winter season; summer lift or bike-park operation does not count a…Read-only
- sun_on_the_mountainShow modelled sun and shade windows for eight slope aspects, with local terrain-horizon shading where DEM coverage exists.Read-only
- route_on_mountainRoute between named pistes, lifts, the resort base or latitude,longitude coordinates using mapped OSM pistes and lifts. Names match accent-insensitively and partially (exact, then prefix, then contai…Read-only
- avalanche_dangerSummarise the regional avalanche bulletin covering a resort: EAWS in Europe, avalanche.org centres in the US and Avalanche Canada, with zone, issuing centre, issue and expiry times and a link to the…Read-only
- mountain_factsRead mapped OSM terrain inventory, lift fleet, vertical, longest run, carefully matched Wikidata facts, season dates and modelled snow reliability.Read-only
- where_is_it_snowingRank the freshest recently reported snow from the cached EM Snow home-page ranking.Read-only
- best_time_to_goGet historical snow odds from the local ERA5 archive and quiet-week guidance where the crowd scorer covers the resort.Read-only
- season_recapSummarise the most recent completed ski season from the local ERA5 archive first.Read-only
- snow_reliabilityGet an explainable snow-reliability score from long-run ERA5 snow depth.Read-only
- nearby_resortsFind nearby resorts from the local EM Snow resort index.Read-only
- get_webcamsGet nearby webcam images and their source links, with the required provider credit.Read-only
- get_snow_reportsGet recent visible community reports, including whether each came from the website or was relayed by an AI assistant.Read-only
- watch_resortReturn a one-tap EM Snow URL where the person can watch a resort and optionally add dates. This tool does not collect email.Read-only
- add_snow_reportOnly relay a report from a person who is at, or was just at, the resort. Never invent a report. The report goes live immediately and is labelled as relayed via an AI assistant.Can change things
- suggest_resortSuggest a missing resort for human review. This never adds it directly to the resort index.Can change things
- get_extended_outlookGet a 16-day daily outlook (snowfall, temperatures, freezing level, maximum gusts and, for the first days, precipitation probability) from EM Snow's self-hosted GFS and ECMWF IFS models. Days 1 to 7…Read-only
- get_resort_mediaGet images for a resort that vision-capable assistants can show: nearby webcams with provider credit, a Wikimedia Commons photo with its per-file licence, author and source page, the EM Snow sun and…Read-only
- fly_this_mountainGet a link that plays a simulated 3D tour of a resort in the EM Snow flyby (lifts up, named runs down, on the mapped piste network), or a tour of runs you name. Pick names match like route_on_mountai…Read-only
