- Privacy-safe — venue contact details, phone numbers, internal notes, and commission data are stripped before any response is returned. Only public venue information is ever exposed.
- Rate limited — 60 requests per minute per IP on the hosted endpoint.
- Open source — MIT licensed. Inspect the code at any time.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
