Ask the user's phone where they are now. The phone answers each request with consent.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Whereabot lets an AI assistant ask the user's phone for its current location on demand, with the phone answering each request after consent.

What you can do
  • Request the user's current location: the assistant pings the phone, which takes a fresh GPS fix and returns it.
  • Rely on consent per request: the phone answers each location request only with the user's approval.
  • Connect over MCP or HTTP to a relay that the phone keeps a WebSocket connection to.
  • Optionally let another person's agent ask for the user's location, per the documented sharing flow.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs the user's real, current whereabouts rather than a typed address — for example location-aware answers, nearby suggestions, or checking in on where someone is. Best suited to users willing to install a companion phone app and sign in.
Requirements
Remote relay endpoint reached over streamable HTTP; OAuth sign-in is required. The user must install the Whereabot phone app (Android or iOS) and sign in with Apple or Google, using the same account in the agent client. On Android the app must stay open while the agent asks; iOS can answer in the background via push.
Before you install
It shares the user's live location with the connected agent and, through the relay, with the hosted service; sign-in and user data live in Supabase. The relay is described as keeping no location history, but review the privacy documentation before use. The project is an early beta MVP, and Android only answers while the app is open. Self-hosting is possible but requires running your own relay and Supabase project.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Whereabot in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. 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.whereabot%2Fwhereabot/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. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

Whereabot

Let your AI agent ask your phone where you are, on demand. You host the relay. Sign-in and user data live in Supabase.

The relay keeps no location history. It sends a ping, the phone reads its GPS now, and the answer goes back to the agent. What is stored, for how long, and who sees your location: privacy.

Status

Early MVP, in beta. iOS answers in the background through push. Android answers only while the app is open. See the roadmap.

server/Rust relay (axum). Agents call it over HTTP or MCP; the phone holds a WebSocket to it.
app/Tauri v2 phone app (Android / iOS). Signs in, then answers pings with a GPS fix.

Connect your agent

  1. Install the app: see Get started on whereabot.io, or install from the browser.

  2. Sign in with Apple or Google on the phone.

  3. Add the relay to your agent:

    bash
    claude mcp add --transport http whereabot https://relay.whereabot.io/mcp
  4. In Claude Code run /mcp and sign in with the same Apple or Google account as on the phone. You never paste a token.

  5. On Android, keep the app open while the agent asks, until Android push ships.

Relay URLs: live URLs. The tool and its arguments: protocol.

Self-host

Run your own relay and Supabase project with the OpenTofu code in infra/. Steps: infra/README.md. Build the app with your Supabase and relay values (app/.env.example), and add your relay to your agent. To run everything on one computer first: local quick start.
