Ask what corn yielded last year, what a commodity costs today, or how much coffee Brazil sold to the United States. The number comes back with the USDA or Comtrade release it was read from, so you can check it.

Setup
Choose one of these options:
Open claude.ai/customize/connectors, click Add custom connector, name it Pipeworx Agri and paste this URL. Leave the OAuth client ID and secret blank — the connector registers itself.
https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp?vertical=agriThen click Connect and sign in with GitHub. That step is free and takes you from 50 calls a day to 200 — same connection either way, and you can skip it and sign in later. In a new chat, open the tools menu and enable the connector.
Custom connectors need a paid Claude plan — that is an Anthropic gate, not a Pipeworx one.
Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json:

"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp?vertical=agri",

Use this MCP server for this conversation:
npx -y mcp-remote "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp?vertical=agri" --header "Authorization:Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
Then give me a corn market outlook — production, exports, and ethanol demand.For crop and livestock data, get a free key at quickstats.nass.usda.gov and add it on your /account page.
These packs need no additional keys — they work out of the box with your Pipeworx account.

What data sources are included in AgriPulse?
USDA (NASS crop reports, livestock data, FAS export sales), FRED (commodity prices, farm income), BLS (food CPI, agricultural employment), UN Comtrade (global trade flows for crops and meat), Open-Meteo and NOAA (weather and growing-season conditions), and EIA (energy markets that drive fertilizer and fuel costs).
How current are crop production and export figures?
NASS publishes crop production estimates monthly during the growing season and weekly for crop progress. FAS export sales report weekly. UN Comtrade releases bilateral trade data on a 1–2 month lag. Every tool response includes _meta.cache.fresh_until so an agent can decide whether to refetch.
Can I correlate weather conditions with crop forecasts?
Yes. Open-Meteo and NOAA tools provide current conditions, multi-day forecasts, and historical weather for any lat/lon. Combined with NASS crop progress reports and FRED commodity prices, an agent can reason about how unusual heat, drought, or precipitation in a key growing region might affect harvest and pricing.
