OpenClaw processes wave forecast requests for multiple coastal locations simultaneously, making it the right tool for surf travel platforms comparing conditions across an entire coastline, marine activity operators scheduling across multiple sites, or research projects building wave climate datasets.

Connect ToolRouter to OpenClaw

npm install -g toolrouter-mcp
2Call tools directly from OpenClaw

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Ocean & Tides tool:

  1. Run: "Get 5-day wave forecasts for ten surf spots along the Cornish coast using ocean-data"
  2. OpenClaw returns forecasts for all locations
  3. Score and rank each spot by forecast quality
  4. Surface the top-rated locations in your platform

Example Prompt

Try this with OpenClaw using the Ocean & Tides tool
Get 3-day wave forecasts for Newquay, Perranporth, Polzeath, and Bude. Return as JSON with daily height, period, direction, and wind for each location.

Tips

  • Run morning updates at 6am so forecast data is fresh for the surfing day
  • Build a "best break today" feature by comparing quality scores across your location list
  • Store historical forecasts alongside actual conditions to calibrate your quality scoring model
