Connect Windsurf to Apple Weather

Yes, Windsurf can check the weather from your Mac. Pomeroy connects Windsurf to Apple's WeatherKit, the same source the Weather app uses, so Windsurf can read current conditions and the days ahead for any place you name. The weather actions take place names, never your location.

What can you ask Windsurf to do in Apple Weather?

  • “What’s the weather in Lisbon this weekend?”
  • “Will it rain in Manchester tomorrow?”
  • “What’s the temperature in Tokyo right now?”
  • “Do I need a coat in Edinburgh this morning?”
  • “What does the week ahead look like in Cornwall?”
  • “How windy is it in Brighton today?”

What Windsurf can do in Apple Weather

  • Read current conditions for a named place: temperature, feels-like, humidity, and wind.
  • Read a daily forecast for a named place: highs, lows, and the chance of rain.

What Pomeroy will not do in Apple Weather

  • Use your location. The weather actions take place names only.
  • Call a third-party weather service. Answers come from Apple, or not at all.

How to connect windsurf to apple weather

Pomeroy lists the assistants it finds on this Mac, so install Windsurf first if it is not there yet.

  1. 1

    Download Pomeroy and switch on Apple Weather.

    Open the download, drag Pomeroy into Applications, and open it. Pomeroy opens a setup window listing every app it can connect. Weather needs no macOS permission prompt. The weather actions take place names, not your location, so there is nothing for macOS to ask about.

  2. 2

    Press Set up beside Windsurf.

    Pomeroy puts the configuration on your clipboard. Paste it into Windsurf's mcp_config.json, keeping any servers already there.

  3. 3

    Paste it into Windsurf.

    Paste the configuration into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. In Windsurf, open the MCP panel in Cascade and press refresh. Pomeroy is listed with its tools.

  4. 4

    Ask Windsurf something.

    Try “What’s the weather in Lisbon this weekend?” and a real answer comes back.

The configuration, in full

Set up writes it for you. The documentation has the exact text, where it goes, and how to check it worked.

Can Windsurf check the weather?

Yes. Once you switch Weather on in Pomeroy, Windsurf can read current conditions and a daily forecast for any place you name, with temperatures in Celsius and the chance of rain per day.

Does this share my location?

No. The weather actions take place names, like Lisbon, never your location. When you ask, one request goes to Apple carrying the coordinates of the place you named — that request is listed on Pomeroy's privacy page, and it is the only thing a weather question sends anywhere.

Where do the weather answers come from?

Apple. Pomeroy uses WeatherKit, the same source as the Weather app on your Mac, and never calls a third-party weather service. Apple says location in a weather request is used only to provide forecasts, is not associated with personally identifying information, and is never shared or sold.

Windsurf does not show Pomeroy's tools.

Then press Set up again in Pomeroy, under Settings › Assistants: every way Pomeroy sets an assistant up is safe to run twice. Then check that the app you asked about is switched on in Pomeroy: an app that is off serves no tools. Pomeroy's menu bar shows whether Windsurf is connected right now.
