pergola

get_pergola_guidance

Call this FIRST whenever someone asks what a pergola costs, how big or tall it should be, or which style suits their home. Returns the questions to ask before quoting, how to measure, key facts, the language to use when describing Baldwin pergolas, and when to hand off to the sales team. Then call the matching quote tool.

search_pergola_faq

Search Baldwin Pergolas questions and answers on size, height, foundations and existing patios or decks, customization, accessories, and what to consider before buying. Answers are written for homeowners; share them in a warm, consultative voice and use any ask_next questions to continue the conversation.

search_pergola_knowledge

Search deep Baldwin product knowledge: fiberglass, finishes, electrical, fans, shade, installation, footings, architecture and commercial work. Returns source-linked passages. Search a focused product question. Results are bounded public excerpts, not source files or a bulk export. Use a returned reference ID to narrow a question. Use quote tools for current prices. Refer conflicting claims to Baldwin for case-by-case review.

contact

create_contact_link

Get the right contact link for projects the configurators cannot handle. Use audience "homeowner" for custom projects outside the configurators (the contact form; Michael Hurlburt phones within 24 hours, except on weekends). Use audience "professional" for designers, architects, engineers, builders, specifiers, and contractors (the commercial projects questionnaire). Pass a short conversation_summary so the Baldwin team knows what was discussed.

report

report_pergola_problem

Report an actual problem for Baldwin development review: conflicting product guidance, failed tools, missing information or broken design links. Record both claims and public source titles/reference IDs for conflicts; do not choose a disputed structural specification. This saves a private report and alerts the owner. No transcripts, identities, addresses, credentials or private server paths. Do not report hypothetical examples as real problems.

Baldwin Pergolas — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Baldwin Pergolas do?

It exposes 9 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_contact_link, get_pergola_guidance, quote_classic_pergola, quote_curved_pergola, quote_lattice_panel, quote_modern_classic_pergola and 3 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

What is Baldwin Pergolas mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around quote and pergola. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Baldwin Pergolas working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 16 of 16 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 816 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Baldwin Pergolas?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Baldwin Pergolas need an API key?

No. Baldwin Pergolas completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 9 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Baldwin Pergolas?

It answers our handshake in 816 ms on average, which is faster than 10% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
