Overview
Provides a Model Context Protocol server to access NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day and image/video library APIs.
Installation
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector python server.pyEnvironment Variables
- NASA_API_KEY
Security Notes
The server uses standard libraries (httpx, dotenv) and retrieves API keys from environment variables, defaulting to a demo key. No 'eval' or direct shell commands were found. Input schemas for tools provide some validation (e.g., date formats), reducing injection risks for specific parameters. The primary interaction is with known public NASA APIs. Generally safe to run.
