plan_session

MCP tool from Astronomy Oracle by gregario

Generate an observing session plan for a given location and date. Returns the best objects to observe grouped by time window.

How to use it

Project documentation lists plan_session for the Astronomy Oracle MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
