Fetch weather/climate data via Earth2Studio data sources for specific variables and times. Do NOT use for inference pipelines, model discovery, or installation.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Earth2Studio Data Fetch Skill ## Purpose Guide a user through downloading weather/climate data via Earth2Studio data source APIs. Identifies compatible sources by checking the lexicon, verifies variable support, and produces a working fetch script outputting an xarray DataArray. ## Prerequisites - Earth2Studio installed (`uv pip install earth2studio` or equivalent) - Network access to remote data stores (GCS, S3, CDS API, etc.) - For CDS-based sources: valid CDS API key configured (`~/.cdsapirc`) - Python 3.10+ ## Instructions You are helping a user download specific weather/climate data using Earth2Studio's data source APIs. Your job is to identify which data source(s) can provide the requested variables, verify compatibility via the lexicon system, and produce a working fetch script. ### Core principle: live docs and lexicon are the source of truth Data source APIs, available variables, and the lexicon evolve between releases. Before recommending a data source or writing a fetch script: 1. **Fetch the relevant data source doc page** to confirm the API signature and constructor arguments. 2. **Check the lexicon** to verify the requested variable is supported by …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skills/earth2studio-data-fetch@sha256:035abf88c10de488The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.16.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
