What is WRDO?

WRDO connects AI assistants to local business information in the Western Cape, South Africa, through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

With WRDO, compatible AI assistants can discover local businesses, browse public business profiles, retrieve menus and price lists, and generate links that let people start quote, booking or order requests through WRDO.

MCP endpoint: https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

WRDO is a hosted remote MCP server. You do not need to host the server yourself or run a local copy.

Connection details

• Transport: Streamable HTTP
• Endpoint: https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp
• Authentication: No authentication is currently required to connect.
• Coverage: the Western Cape, South Africa, including Cape Town and the Winelands
• Rate limit: 30 requests per minute per caller.

This repository contains configuration and integration files, not the hosted server's implementation.

Agents: see AGENTS.md. Developer docs: wrdo.co.za/developers.

What can you do with WRDO?

Ask your AI assistant in ordinary language.

Find a local business

Find a hairdresser in Cape Town.

Explore restaurants and prices

Which restaurants in Stellenbosch have a menu item under R100?

Look up a menu item

What's on the menu at Breezy's, and how much is the garlic and cheese pita?

Start a request

Find a hairdresser in Wellington and help me start a request for Saturday morning.

Your assistant can select the appropriate WRDO tool based on your request.

Available tools

WRDO exposes six MCP tools.

Tool	Description
search_local_businesses	Search by service, business name, town or suburb. Results can be filtered by category, whether a price list is available, maximum price in rand and whether the business is open now.
list_categories	Browse the types of businesses listed on WRDO, including category counts for a location or the wider directory.
get_business	Retrieve a public business profile, including its category, area and verification status. Verified profiles may include a description, address, opening hours, website and menu link.
get_price_list	Retrieve a business's menu or price list, including item names, descriptions and prices in South African rand. Website-sourced prices may be unconfirmed.
list_areas	List the areas WRDO covers, so a town or suburb name can be checked before searching.
start_request	Generate a link for a person to start a quote, booking or order request through WRDO. The person continues the process in WRDO.

Important limitations

• Business information and prices may change. Confirm important details with the business.
• Website-sourced prices may not have been confirmed by the business.
• A request link is not a confirmed booking, order or quote.
• The MCP server does not itself complete bookings or process payments.

Installation

Claude Desktop and claude.ai

Available options may vary between Claude products and account types.

Claude Code

Add WRDO as a remote HTTP MCP server:

claude mcp add --transport http wrdo https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

Alternatively, if using the WRDO plugin marketplace:

/plugin marketplace add wrdo-development/wrdo-mcp-connector
/plugin install wrdo@wrdo

      "url": "https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Visual Studio Code

Other MCP-compatible clients

For clients that support remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP, use:

https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

For clients that only support local standard-input/output (stdio) servers, a bridge such as mcp-remote may work:

npx -y mcp-remote https://api.wrdo.co.za/mcp

Client compatibility and configuration requirements vary. Refer to the client's documentation if the connection fails.

Agent-to-agent (A2A)

WRDO publishes an A2A agent card at:

https://api.wrdo.co.za/.well-known/agent-card.json

Compatible agent-to-agent systems can use this endpoint to discover WRDO's advertised agent information.
