A travel MCP server: plan trips by talking to your AI
Tripsfolk exposes trip planning over the Model Context Protocol. Connect Claude, Claude Code, Cursor — anything that speaks MCP — and say "plan me three days in Kyoto". The itinerary, places and notes land in the same workspace your family sees.
What the assistant can do
- Search real places (hours, ratings, coordinates) and save them to your shared library.
- Build day-by-day itineraries with time slots, backups for rainy days, and a shortlist for the undecided.
- Correct itself: move stops between days, reorder a day, swap a pick with its backup, or park a stop on the shortlist — no rebuilding from scratch.
- Turn links you drop into an inbox into events and places.
It cannot see your photos or manage members — the assistant connects with a restricted key of its own, revocable from settings at any time.
Connect
The endpoint:
https://tripsfolk.com/mcp
Two ways in:
- Sign in — add the endpoint in your assistant and approve the sign-in window (OAuth). Works in Claude's connectors, Claude Code and Cursor.
- Pass key — for assistants without a browser: issue a one-time key in the app's settings and paste it into the client's configuration.
The in-app guide walks through each client step by step once you're signed in.
Using Claude Code?
There's also a travel-planning skill that teaches Claude Code a whole method — how to research candidates, arrange backups per slot, and write useful notes on every stop:
