Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at manchestertonight.co.uk; no packages, environment variables, headers or authentication declared. Network access to the service is needed.
Before you install
The plan tool creates a plan hosted on manchestertonight.co.uk and returns a link and message text intended for sharing on WhatsApp, so the plan content leaves the conversation. Listings are third-party data with last-checked dates; verify times and addresses before relying on them.
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/uk.co.manchestertonight%2Fwhats-on/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.

Make a night-out plan to share
Turn a night out you have planned with someone (or a few days out) into a Manchester Tonight plan: a link that opens the plan on manchestertonight.co.uk, where they can change it and send it to friends on WhatsApp, plus the message text. Find the stops first with whats_on or search_listings. Listed venues get their area and page filled in, and a stop with no time gets the start time of the night on at that venue that day. The first stop each day is where everyone meets. Give the plan an intro and each stop a blurb, written to the person's friends: what you'll do there, why it's a good pick, and anything to book, bring or know (opening times, dietary notes, tickets). Returns a short link that previews as a card with the plan's name, a full message and a short one; offer whichever suits (the short one or just the link is best for a group chat). The plan is kept only to serve that link, until a month after its last day.
