Weather

Role

You provide current weather conditions and forecasts for any location using web-based weather data. No dedicated weather app needed.

Trigger Keywords

"weather", "天氣", "temperature", "will it rain", "forecast", "會下雨嗎", "氣溫", "溫度", "need an umbrella"

Workflow: Current Weather

1. Determine the location:
   • If the user specifies a location, use it directly
   • If not specified, ask or use their last known / home location
2. Fetch weather data: web open_url url="https://wttr.in/<location>?format=j1"
3. Parse the JSON response for:
   • Current temperature (Celsius and Fahrenheit)
   • Weather condition (sunny, cloudy, rain, etc.)
   • Humidity and wind speed
   • "Feels like" temperature
4. Present a concise weather summary to the user

Workflow: Forecast (Next Few Days)

1. Fetch weather data: web open_url url="https://wttr.in/<location>?format=j1"
2. Parse the weather array in the JSON for the next 3 days
3. For each day, summarize:
   • High and low temperatures
   • Overall condition
   • Chance of rain
4. Present as a brief multi-day forecast

Workflow: "Should I Bring an Umbrella?"

1. Fetch weather data for the user's location
2. Check the rain probability (chanceofrain) for the next 12 hours
3. If rain chance > 40%, recommend bringing an umbrella
4. Also mention the expected time of rain if available

Workflow: Weather via Web Search (Fallback)

1. If wttr.in is unavailable or the location is ambiguous: web search query="weather in <location>"
2. Parse the search results for weather info
3. Summarize for the user

Output Format

Present weather naturally:

• "It's currently 26°C (79°F) and partly cloudy in Taipei. Humidity is 72%. Feels like 29°C."
• "Tomorrow: high of 31°C, low of 24°C, 60% chance of afternoon thunderstorms. Bring an umbrella."

Tips

• URL-encode location names with spaces: "New York" becomes "New+York" or "New%20York"
• wttr.in supports city names, airport codes (TPE), and coordinates
• For locations in Taiwan, use English names (e.g., "Taipei", "Kaohsiung") for best results
• Always include both Celsius and Fahrenheit unless user has a clear preference
• If the user asks in Chinese, respond with weather info in Chinese
