Gingerguide City Catalog
https://server.smithery.ai/egeozalp/gingerguide/mcpRead-only MCP server for the Gingerguide travel catalog: 129 European cities in 28 countries with 2,500+ narrated points of interest. Tools: search_cities (find cities by name or country), get_city_guide (a city with all its sights, one-line descriptions, coordinates, categories and visit durations), list_countries, and get_catalog_overview (totals, languages and app links). Useful for city itineraries, "what to see in <city>" questions and attraction details. Public data, no API key required.
MCP readiness
Readiness is how fully this listing follows its protocol and how it behaved in our probes over 30 days. It is shown for reference and does not move it in search. Search order and leaderboards use the separate quality grade (here C+, 70.0/100), which weighs availability, conformance, p95 speed and descriptor. How the two differ
| Valid MCP handshake | 10/10 | initialize and tools/list both answered. |
| Live MCP endpoint | 24/25 | Endpoint answers the MCP initialize handshake (2696 ms); slow response -1. |
| Protocol revision | 10/10 | Speaks the current MCP revision 2026-07-28. |
| Signed descriptor | n/a | No MCP standard defines a signed server descriptor. |
| Uptime (30 days) | 15/15 | 30/30 probes succeeded over 30 days (100%). |
| Tool declaration | 10/10 | Lists 14 tool(s) with descriptions. |
| Verified identity | 5/10 | Publisher declared (repository, package or homepage); claim this listing to verify domain control. |
| Freshness + modern flags | 4/5 | seen in a source within 7 days. |
| Auth declaration | 2/5 | Declares credential scheme: smithery_api_key. |
