wander-agent — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
Connects your AI client to live flight searches, hotel listings, visa rules, and weather forecasts. Useful for building complete travel plans without manual lookups.
claude mcp add wander-agent -- uvx wander-agentWhat wander-agent does
This server connects coding agents to travel aggregators and public datasets. It checks flight combinations across Google Flights and Kiwi simultaneously, uncovering split-ticket routes and hidden-city layovers. It also queries accommodation listings, estimates spending across 220 cities, and pulls nearby venue details from OpenStreetMap.
The integration handles documentation checks. It reviews transit requirements, evaluates visa-free access using 2024 Henley rankings, and contrasts allowances between two separate passports. Travelers also get safety updates from the US State Department, jet lag schedules, and 16-day climate projections via Open-Meteo.
You need Python 3.10 or newer on your machine. No third-party API tokens are required, so the server operates straight out of the box through uvx.
What it helps with
- find split-ticket flights and hidden-city fare discounts
- verify transit and entry visa rules between specific countries
- calculate daily trip costs for target cities
- generate multi-day travel schedules paired with 16-day weather forecasts
Example prompts for the agent
- Check hidden-city and split-ticket flight options from New York to Tokyo for next month.
- Build a 10-day travel schedule for two in Bali on a $3,000 budget including entry rules and weather.
- Compare my two passports to see which destinations are unlocked by each one.
