This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge — the server is running, but you need an API key or OAuth to use it.

Available tools 2

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

photo
get_photo
Display a holiday photo to the user by creating an HTML artifact that embeds the photo from its hosted URL. After calling this tool you MUST create an HTML artifact (type text/html) whose body is a single <img> tag pointing at the hosted URL returned in the result. Do not write a prose description, caption, or commentary — the user wants to view the photo, not read about it. Use list_photos first to discover valid IDs.
photos
list_photos
List every available holiday photo with its ID and description.

Holiday Photo Plus 2 — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Holiday Photo Plus 2 do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_photo, list_photos. 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 Holiday Photo Plus 2 working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 210 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is Holiday Photo Plus 2 still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Holiday Photo Plus 2?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own key or an OAuth login: it refuses anonymous clients.
Does Holiday Photo Plus 2 need an API key?
Yes. Every time we knock, Holiday Photo Plus 2 answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.
How fast is Holiday Photo Plus 2?
It answers our handshake in 210 ms on average, which is faster than 60% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
