Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant search French cultural events and compare ticket prices across multiple resellers.

What you can do
CultureLib Discover is a remote MCP server for French cultural events. According to its registry description, it supports searching events such as theatre performances and concerts, and comparing ticket prices offered by several resellers. No individual tools are listed in the manifest, so the exact operations available are not documented here.
When to use it
Worth considering when an assistant needs to find cultural events in France or check how ticket prices differ between resellers for the same event. Less relevant for users outside that market or for non-ticketed event information.
Requirements
It is a remote streamable HTTP endpoint at culturelib.fr, so no local runtime or package installation is needed. The manifest declares no authentication, no environment variables and no headers, so no credentials appear to be required. Network access to the remote endpoint is necessary.
Before you install
The manifest declares no authentication, environment variables or headers, so no secrets are requested. Because the server is remote, the queries an assistant sends are handled by a third party. Ticket price comparisons may lead to purchases on external reseller sites; any payment or booking happens outside this server and should be reviewed by the user.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open CultureLib Discover 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.tbalcinha%2Fculturelib-discover/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
