WIPE Around missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

business

get_business

Everything WIPE Around shows about one business, as Markdown: trade, town, address, phone, WhatsApp, website, hours, booking, services with prices, and more. Pass its slug or its around.iw.pe/b/… address (from search_businesses).

businesses

search_businesses

Search WIPE Around's map of Israel's local businesses (beauty and wellness, health, trades, food, shops, classes…). Write what is wanted in plain Hebrew: the town, the trade, a budget and a time are read from the words, e.g. "קוסמטיקאית ברעננה", "חשמלאי בחולון", "טיפול פנים בחיפה עד 400 השבוע". In English the town, a budget and a time are not read from the words (a business's name and some trade words are), so give the town as city, the trade as kind, and a budget or a time as max or when. A budget (עד 400) or a time (היום or עכשיו for today; מחר, השבוע or בשבוע הקרוב for the week) read only from the words orders the results instead of filtering them. A business known to meet it is lifted (see the order): a published price for it at or under the budget, a free time then in a WIPE booking calendar. One that has not said (no published price for it, or no online booking) stays in the results, and its unconfirmed names what to ask it. One known not to meet it is left out, unless the words give its own name: a higher price, or online booking with no free time then in a WIPE booking calendar. Given as max or when, a budget or a time filters instead. Results come best first, each with its page, phone, WhatsApp, prices and why it fits, and, when it takes bookings through a WIPE site, a booking link and the first free time in its WIPE calendar, if any. Results are ordered by how well they match the words and the trade, how near they are to a location when one is given (for businesses added from the towns around a town asked for, to that town's centre), availability, how complete the page is, reviews and who runs the page. The words can lift a business above that order: one whose own name they give comes first, even outside the trade, the town, the budget or the time asked for; then one that says yes to what they ask of the place (a language spoken there, coming to the home) comes before one that has not; then one known to meet a budget or a time typed in them comes before one that has not said. Availability: any online booking counts a little, and free time in a WIPE booking calendar in the seven days from today counts more, most when its first free time is today or tomorrow and it has free time on five or more of those days. Reviews: only Around's own, written through the link of a booking made on WIPE; reviews from other sites never count. Who runs the page: a page its owner verified counts most, then one its owner manages from a WIPE site, then a page from open data. So a business that books online, more so through a WIPE calendar with free time, and a page run from a WIPE site or verified, rank higher.

WIPE Around — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can WIPE Around do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_business, search_businesses. 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 WIPE Around working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 232 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect WIPE Around?

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.

Does WIPE Around need an API key?

No. WIPE Around completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is WIPE Around?

It answers our handshake in 232 ms on average, which is faster than 57% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
