### Tool changes

- 2026-09-24 `start_trial` changed (description)
  - before: Does not mint from the hosted server. Add the stdio bridge `npx -y @smarterweather/mcp-onboarding@latest`, then call start_trial there. That writes SMARTERWEATHER_API_KEY to .env and never prints the bearer. If you already run the package and still see this, restart it on @latest.
  - after: Does not mint from the hosted server. Prefer `npx -y @smarterweather/mcp-onboarding@latest trial` (no MCP host), or add the stdio bridge and call start_trial there. Both write SMARTERWEATHER_API_KEY to .env and never print the bearer. If you already run the package and still see this, restart it on @latest.

## Tools (4)

- `get_documentation`: Search the Smarter Weather developer documentation index (quickstart, REST API, MCP server, errors, rate limits, SDKs, pricing, API keys). Returns up to 5 matching entries with title, URL, and an actionable summary. No authentication required.
- `get_plans`: Current developer-platform plans and pricing: Free, Developer, and Professional tiers with monthly price, included API-call allowance, and overage rates. One metered allowance spans REST and MCP usage. No authentication required.
- `sign_up`: Returns the Smarter Weather developer sign-up URL (with MCP referral attribution). Present the URL so the user can create a free account in a browser (Clerk, no credit card). After they finish, reconnect this MCP server with OAuth and call create_api_key, then configure_mcp. No authentication required.
- `start_trial`: Does not mint from the hosted server. Prefer `npx -y @smarterweather/mcp-onboarding@latest trial` (no MCP host), or add the stdio bridge and call start_trial there.
