Use Solcast from Claude Code
Bring Solcast context into engineering work while Type keeps app access attached to the teammate and workspace.
AI agent integrationSolcast
Solcast integration for multiplayer collaboration with AI agents using Claude Code or Codex
One governed connection your whole team and its AI agents can share, with approved actions and human review, so working in Solcast never means pasting credentials into a prompt.
CategoryAnalytics & Data
Automate Solcast with Codex
Let coding agents ask for the right app action, preserve conversation context, and keep humans in the approval loop.
Connect open agent workflows
Use Type as the collaboration layer around OpenClaw and other LLM workflows that need app access.
Analytics & Data
What the Solcast integration exposes
Solar resource assessment and forecasting data for irradiance and PV power, globally.
One connection, many teammates
Connect Solcast once, then decide which teammates can use it for threads, automations, skills, and coding work.
Representative actions
- Get Historic Radiation And Weather
Tool to get historical irradiance and weather estimated actuals for a requested location. Use when you need historical solar radiation and weather data from 2007-01-01 to 7 days ago, for up to 31 days at a time.
- Get PV Power Resource
Tool to retrieve a specific PV power resource by its unique identifier. Use when you need to fetch complete resource configuration including capacity, orientation, tracking, and derating parameters.
- Get Resources PV Power Sites
Tool to list PV power resources available to authenticated user. Use when you need to retrieve the list of PV power sites with optional filtering by entitlement level.
- Patch PV Power Resource
Tool to partially update an existing PV power resource's technical specifications. Use when you need to modify specific resource configuration fields without replacing the entire resource.
- Create PV Power Resource
Tool to create a new PV power resource for Advanced PV Power forecasting. Use when you need to add a new solar installation site with comprehensive technical specifications including capacity, orientation, tracking parameters, and derating factors.
Connection
API and auth details
Solcast exposes solar and weather data through APIs used for rooftop PV estimates, forecast horizons, irradiance, power output, and historical solar resource analysis. Integrations typically authenticate with a Solcast API key and call JSON endpoints by location, asset, or resource type.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Solcast
Can Claude Code use Solcast?
Yes. Type lets an AI teammate use connected Solcast actions from a governed workspace context, so Claude Code work can reference the app without copying credentials into a local prompt.
Can Codex work with Solcast through Type?
Yes. Codex can collaborate through Type with app context, skills, and approved actions. The Solcast catalog entry includes public integration details and example capabilities where available.
Is this the same as a Solcast MCP server?
Type exposes connected app capabilities to AI teammates and coding agents through Type's integration layer. Teams use it when they want shared app access, human review, and teammate-level permissions around agent work.
