Overview

AI-generated overview

A free, no-login remote MCP server that lets an assistant search live rental-car offers and compare prices, vendors and categories for a trip.

What you can do
Search live rental-car offers by pickup location, rental dates and optional dropoff location, times, driver age, currency and language, with results grouped by car category showing the cheapest options per group, including vendor, price, transmission, fuel policy, deposit, protections and booking links.
When to use it
Useful when a user wants to compare rental cars, prices or vendors for a specific trip, including one-way rentals, or wants booking links for a chosen location and date range.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no API key or login is required. Network access is needed, and the server is rate limited to about 1 request per second with a burst of 5.
Before you install
Booking links carry affiliate attribution, so OctoTrip may earn a commission at no extra cost to the user. The tool only searches and does not book, modify reservations or charge users. Search criteria such as location and dates are sent to external provider APIs.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open OctoTrip Rental Cars in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/app.octotrip%2Frental-cars/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
