French River Level and Flow Observations, Near Real Time (Hub'Eau)
hubeau/river-levels-realtime
A page of near-real-time observations from the French national hydrometric network (more than 6000 stations): water level (grandeur_hydro H) or flow (Q) with the station and site code, observation time in UTC, value, measurement method, qualification, status and station coordinates. You choose how many records to return; the tool takes no station filter, so it returns whichever records the service lists first. Recent observations are often raw ('Brute') and not yet qualified. Data from Hub'Eau, producers OFB / BRGM / SCHAPI-Vigicrues, Licence Ouverte Etalab; served by Eden Engine; not an official Hub'Eau product.

Use it
Five steps: search, inspect, learn, run, settle. No per-tool setup; your agent reaches this tool through the meta-tools it already has.
Connect once and your AI can find and run this tool, and any other it needs.
// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })
// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "hubeau/river-levels-realtime" })
// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "hubeau/river-levels-realtime" })
// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "hubeau/river-levels-realtime", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "hubeau/river-levels-realtime", input: { /* ... */ } })
// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to doNot connected yet? Point your MCP client at https://mcp.eden-engine.com/mcp, then copy a config for your client.
