NOAA Tides and Currents MCP server

NOAA Tides and Currents is a remote MCP server that gives an AI agent 26 tools, among them astro_get_moon_phase, astro_get_next_moon_phase, astro_get_next_sun_event. It answers at https://perigeetides.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 6 of 6 times since 11 September 2026; the last check, on 20 October 2026, succeeded.
