Partiful

@pipeworx/partiful

Public event listings from Partiful's explore pages — titles, times, locations, host names, and aggregate RSVP counts for the parties, pop-ups, panels and meetups Partiful surfaces as crashable.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1807+ live data sources. This is an independent, unofficial integration — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream provider.

Tools

• partiful_explore(region?) — browse the public explore page. Pass a region code (nyc, la, sf, dc, chi, bos, atx, mia) for a richer set of themed sections for that city; omit it for the top-level cross-city trending overview (NYC/LA/SF only).
• partiful_event(event_id) — full public detail for one event: title, description, start/end time, location, image, host display names, and aggregate RSVP counts. Never returns a guest list or contact info.

Auth

Keyless. No account, login, or API key of any kind — the explore page and event pages are rendered for anonymous visitors.

Data sources

• Partiful, public event listings — the explore carousels and per-event pages Partiful serves to any visitor, logged in or not.

Notes

• Partiful server-renders /explore and its per-event pages as a Next.js app and ships the full public-field event data inside a __NEXT_DATA__ JSON blob in the plain HTML. No separate API call, no JS execution needed — this pack parses that blob directly.
• /explore with no region carries only a small baked NYC/LA/SF trending overview (~5 events per city). The per-region explore page is a separate, much richer per-city page with up to a dozen themed sections (Halloween Parties, Pop-Ups & Markets, Meet Someone New, etc.) — use it when you want real coverage for one city.
• Only eight region codes resolve on that route (probed live 2026-10-13): nyc, la, sf, dc, chi, bos, atx, mia. Every other candidate tried (chicago, seattle, london, philly, houston, san-diego, denver, atlanta, nashville, portland, toronto, …) 404s. There is no broader city/geo query parameter — this is the whole surface Partiful exposes.
• Guest lists are never exposed, structurally: an unauthenticated request to an event page gets guest: null from Partiful itself, so there is nothing to leak even if this pack tried to surface it. Host display names (shown publicly on the event page to any visitor) are returned; host photos, phone numbers, emails, and RSVP-form answers are never surfaced.
• location normalizes Partiful's two shapes: structured (neighborhood, display name, address lines, a Google Maps link) and freeform (a single address string). A private/unlisted event, or an id that never existed, both 404 cleanly — partiful_event raises a clear error rather than returning a half-filled record.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "partiful": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/partiful/mcp"
    }
  }
}

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/partiful/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1807+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

No MCP client? Call it over HTTP

curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/partiful_explore \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"region":"la"}'

No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/partiful_explore. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "partiful": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-partiful"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-partiful

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Partiful data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
