Travel planning: day-by-day itineraries, packing lists, weather insights, and trip cost estimates
Overview
Plantrip connects an AI assistant to Plantrip's travel planning service for itineraries, packing lists, weather insights, cost estimates and tour inquiries.
- What you can do
- Create, poll, retrieve and modify day-by-day itineraries, and save, list or delete saved trips
- Generate packing lists and ask general travel questions to a travel expert
- Get weather and climate insights for a destination and estimate trip costs by category
- Search destination travel guides and check tour dates or submit a tour booking inquiry
- When to use it
- Useful when you want an assistant to draft and refine trip plans, budgets and packing suggestions, or to look up Plantrip guides and tour availability, without leaving the chat.
- Requirements
- Runs locally via npx (Node.js) as a stdio server, configured in Claude Desktop or a project .mcp.json. Requires a free Plantrip API key supplied in the PLANTRIP_API_KEY environment variable; an optional PLANTRIP_API_URL overrides the API base URL. Network access to Plantrip's API is needed.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Plantrip in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

50% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
