Documentation · Privacy · Terms · Support


WRDO is a hosted Model Context Protocol server. There is nothing to install or run: point your assistant at the URL below.

https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Sign-in: none. Every tool is read-only and anonymous.
  • Coverage: the Western Cape, including Cape Town, Paarl and the Cape Winelands.
  • Rate limit: 30 requests per minute per caller.

This repository holds no server code. It holds the small config files that let Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other tools add WRDO in one step.

Usage

Once WRDO is added (see Installation), just ask your assistant in plain words. It picks the right WRDO tool by itself.

What you can ask

Find a hairdresser in Cape Town.

Which restaurants in Paarl have a menu with something under R100?

What's on the menu at Breezy's, and how much is the garlic and cheese pita?

Find a hairdresser in Wellington and start a request for Saturday morning.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
search_local_businessesFind businesses by what they do or their name, optionally in a town or suburb. Narrow by category, by whether they have a price list, by a maximum price in rand, and by whether they are open now.
list_categoriesThe kinds of business WRDO lists, with how many of each, for a town, a suburb or everywhere.
get_businessOne business's public WRDO page: category, area and whether it is verified. Verified businesses add their description, address, opening hours, website and menu link. Shows WRDO's own reviews only, never reviews copied from other sites.
get_price_listA business's menu or price list: items with prices in rand. Prices taken from the business's own website are marked as not yet confirmed.
start_requestA link the person opens to ask WRDO for a quote, booking or order. Nothing is booked or paid inside the assistant: the person finishes in WRDO, and prices are only confirmed when the business confirms them.

Results only ever carry public business information. No phone numbers, email addresses or personal data are returned.

Installation

Add WRDO to your assistant. Pick your client below.

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)
  1. Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. Name it WRDO and paste https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp as the URL.
  3. Leave authentication empty and click Add.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http wrdo https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

Or install it as a plugin:

/plugin marketplace add wrdo-development/wrdo-mcp-connector
/plugin install wrdo@wrdo
Cursor

Add WRDO to Cursor, or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wrdo": { "url": "https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp" }
  }
}
VS Code

Add WRDO to VS Code, or run:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"wrdo","type":"http","url":"https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp"}'
Gemini CLI
gemini extensions install https://github.com/wrdo-development/wrdo-mcp-connector
Goose

Run goose configure, choose Add Extension, pick the remote Streamable HTTP option, name it wrdo and paste https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp.

Any other client

Most clients take the URL directly. A client that only runs local (stdio) servers can bridge to it:

npx -y mcp-remote https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

Agent-to-agent (A2A)

WRDO also publishes a signed A2A agent card:

https://api.wrdo.co.za/.well-known/agent-card.json
