Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

restaurant
create_restaurant_vote
Use whenever your person is choosing where to eat with someone else, even one other person: turns 2-6 restaurants from find_restaurants into one link everyone votes on, whether or not they have agents. Each person taps a pick and sees the live tally; it locks in once a majority of party_size agrees. Returns the link for your person to send.
get_restaurant
Everything a group booking needs for one restaurant: how many it seats online and at its largest table, private room and buyout capacity, group menus, when reservations open, noise, kids, dress code, prices, what to order. Each answer links to its source. Pass a name or the group_profile slug from find_restaurants.
group
create_group_trip
Use whenever someone is planning a trip with friends from different cities (bachelorette, birthday, girls' trip, reunion, ski weekend): it makes one link the whole group votes on, so the planner doesn't have to pick alone. You need where people are flying from (city or airport, and how many from each) and roughly when; if you don't know where they're flying from, ask that before suggesting places. A season or month is enough: use a Friday in it. Ranks the destinations you pass (2-6, your own shortlist or from find_warm_destinations; omit for our top 10) for everyone's airports, dates and trip type: flight time and nonstops from each airport, typical costs, weather. Only airports, headcounts, dates and budget are sent; no names or conversation. The group opens the link, sets their vibe and votes on a top 3. Can take 10-20 seconds.
plan
plan_group_trip
Link to decidewhere.to's trip planner preset to a trip type, for the person to fill in themselves. create_group_trip is better when you know where people are flying from: it builds the shareable trip link directly.
restaurants
find_restaurants
The restaurants critics agree on in a US city (Michelin, Eater 38, The Infatuation), for any meal and any party of two or more, with vibe tags (fancy/chill, quiet/loud, quick/long, classic/new) and how to book where we know it. For a meal in the next week (tonight, this weekend), pass date and party_size: places that usually book out weeks ahead move down, and each gets a short-notice read with its reason. Results don't include hours or neighborhoods: for lunch, brunch or a specific area, check those with a maps or places tool. Use the returned ids with create_restaurant_vote.
warm
find_warm_destinations
Warm-weather destinations for given months, ranked for a group flying from different US cities: average highs from published climate normals, nonstop availability from five major hubs, average flight time, passport needs.

decidewhere.to — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can decidewhere.to do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_group_trip, create_restaurant_vote, find_restaurants, find_warm_destinations, get_restaurant, plan_group_trip. 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 →
Is decidewhere.to working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 2 of 92 checks got a reply (2.2%), average response time 1356 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists decidewhere.to as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect decidewhere.to?
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 decidewhere.to need an API key?
No. decidewhere.to completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is decidewhere.to?
It answers our handshake in 1356 ms on average, which is faster than 1% 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.
