Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search camera and production gear for hire in South Africa and find bookable creators.

What you can do
Lets an assistant search and browse camera, lens, lighting, sound and other production gear available for hire in South Africa, filtered by category, city and availability dates, with daily prices in ZAR and a link to the booking page. It also searches ID-checked photographers, videographers and other creators, showing specialisation, location and hourly rates. Additional tools list gear and studio categories, free open source photo and film apps, and explain the rental and booking process.
When to use it
Use it when you need to rent camera or production gear in South Africa, or want to find bookable photographers, videographers and other creators. It also helps check prices, deposits and booking steps before completing a booking on the website.
Requirements
Remote endpoint; no local runtime needed. The input declares no accounts, API keys, environment variables or headers. Network access is required.
Before you install
Actual rentals and bookings happen on the website and may involve deposits, ID checks and payment; the assistant only looks up information and does not transact.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open ThabangVision 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/io.github.LeparaLaMapara%2Fthabangvision/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

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.
