Travel and events: one MCP server for 15 Actors

One Apify MCP URL gives Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code or Codex travel and events data from 12 sources. Hotels, rentals, flights and events for price watching and trip-planning agents. The default bundle holds the 6 most used Actors, one per website; tick any of the 15 below in or out and every config follows. Sign in with your Apify account or pass a token; each call runs the Actor and is billed to your Apify account.

One click, signs in with Apify on first use:

Troubleshooting

Why does the client say Unauthorized or invalid token?

Every Apify Actor tool needs a signed-in Apify account. Reconnect the server so the OAuth sign-in runs again, or switch to the token variant: an Authorization: Bearer header with an API token from Apify Console, Settings, API and integrations. For a local server the token must be in the server's own env block, not only in your shell.

Why did my agent's tool list change after an update?

Without a tools parameter Apify's server loads its default tool set, which changes between releases. The URLs on this site pin the tools with ?tools=, so the agent always gets the same Actor tool plus fetch-actor-details. Apify's README gives the same advice for production.

What happens when the agent sends input the Actor rejects?

The server answers with the Actor's input schema, so the agent can fix the arguments and call again. The fetch-actor-details tool in every scoped URL lets it read that schema before the first call.

Claude Code shows Needs authentication. Why?

The server is added but not signed in. Type /mcp in an interactive session and authenticate, or run claude mcp login with the server name. Headless runs with claude -p cannot complete OAuth, so sign in once interactively or use the --header token variant.
