Solar Potential Skill

What this skill does

Give your agent solar yield estimates. Call it as an MCP tool to return usable sunlight hours and best panel direction for any coordinates. You switch it on with a single toggle — no SDK and no endpoint wiring — and it answers over MCP or REST using the same key as every other skill.

Ways to use it

Add weather without a provider

Give your app the ability to add solar potential to your app by enabling one skill instead of signing up for a weather API and wiring its SDK. Same key as every other skill.

An agent tool for conditions

Over MCP, your model calls the solarpotential tool when a task needs live conditions — trip planning, logistics, scheduling — without any per-source plumbing.

REST from any backend

Node, Python, Go — anything that can send a GET can call Solar Potential directly, so a server-side job can add solar potential to your app in one request.

Use it in your app

Once enabled, this skill is reachable two ways — pick whichever fits how you build. Both use the same key.

For AI agentsMCP

It appears to your model as a callable tool. No extra code — the agent invokes it when a task needs it.

For apps & backendsREST

Call it from your server with one request and your key. Node, Python, Go — anything that can send a GET.

GET /v1/solarpotential

Ask your agent

“Enable Solar Potential and ask your agent to add solar potential to your app.”
“What's the weather in Tokyo right now?”

How to connect it over MCP or REST.

How do I add Solar Potential to my app or agent?

Enable the Solar Potential Skill on VerveKit, then reach it two ways with the same key: over MCP (it appears to your agent as the solarpotential tool) or over REST (call it from any backend). No SDK to install and no endpoint to wire.

MCP or REST — which should I use?

Both work off one key. Use MCP when an AI agent should decide when to add solar potential to your app — the skill shows up as a callable tool. Use REST when your own server-side code should call it directly. Many apps use both.

Which agents and frameworks does it work with?

Any MCP client — Claude, Cursor, LangChain, and custom agents all speak the Model Context Protocol, so Solar Potential appears as a standard tool with nothing skill-specific to integrate.

How many credits does a Solar Potential call cost?

Each call costs 1 credit. Every skill rides the same key and the same connection, so enabling more skills doesn't add more integrations to manage.

Do I need to install anything?

No SDK and no endpoint wiring — enabling the skill is a toggle. You point your agent at the VerveKit MCP endpoint (or call REST) and Solar Potential is available immediately.

Where does the data come from, and what shows on my bill?

VerveKit runs on APIVerve, our production data engine; Solar Potential is one of 300+ skills on the same key. Invoices and card statements show APIVERVE.
