Configure MCP server with USGS NHD Section 404 Surface Water Screener API
Add the configuration above to your project's .mcp.json file for Claude Code, then run /mcp in Claude Code to sign in to Apify. It connects to the hosted Apify MCP server with the USGS NHD Section 404 Surface Water Screener API Actor already loaded. Clients without OAuth support can authenticate with an Authorization: Bearer header carrying an API token from API & Integrations in Apify Console.
For other MCP clients, get a client-specific configuration with the USGS NHD Section 404 Surface Water Screener API Actor preconfigured at https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,malonestar/nhd-surface-water-404-screener.
You can connect to the Apify MCP server using an MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP.
