Aitrips MCP Server

aitrips MCP Server

aitrips.io is a map-first trip planner. Every stop has coordinates, every leg between stops has a real route, and the plan is one shared thing rather than a document that goes stale.

This MCP server gives Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or any MCP-compatible assistant 37 tools against that plan: create a trip, fill in the days, add transport across 11 modes and have the route drawn between both ends, then review the whole thing for what's missing. Everything the assistant writes appears in the browser immediately, and everything you do in the browser is visible to the assistant.

There is nothing to install. The server is hosted at https://www.aitrips.io/api/ai/mcp and speaks Streamable HTTP.

Setup

1. Sign up at aitrips.io
2. Go to Settings to generate your API key
3. Add the configuration below to your MCP client

Clients that support OAuth need no key at all. The server implements OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration, so it registers itself and asks you to sign in.

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aitrips": {
      "url": "https://www.aitrips.io/api/ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add aitrips --transport http https://www.aitrips.io/api/ai/mcp \
  -h "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Other MCP clients

Use the Streamable HTTP endpoint https://www.aitrips.io/api/ai/mcp with an Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY header. Full setup notes, including the OAuth flow, are at aitrips.io/docs.

Try it with

plan me three days in kyoto and put the walking routes on the map
add the 9am train from paddington to oxford on the 14th
what's missing from my tokyo trip?

The second one is the one worth trying first. Both ends get geocoded and a real route is drawn between them, rather than a straight line across the map.

Tools

37 tools. A further 12 admin-only tools exist for platform metrics and are registered only for an admin role, so they never appear in your tools/list.

History

Search

search and fetch carry those exact names because ChatGPT's Deep Research mode requires them.

UI resources

Four MCP Apps resources under ui://aitrips/*: trip list, trip detail, item list and map view. Clients that render them get an interactive view; clients that don't get the text response and lose nothing.

Privacy

Your assistant calls this server; the server never sees your conversation with it. What arrives is the tool call and its arguments, and what's stored is the trip data you'd see in the app. API keys are stored as a SHA-256 hash and can be revoked at any time from Settings. Full detail in the privacy policy, section 4.
