familybugle-mcp

Model Context Protocol server for Park City Families — plug Family Bugle into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.

Claude: "Find ski camps for my 7-year-old in Park City"
→ calls search("ski camps", type="activity", filters={age: 7})
→ returns Youth Ski Camp, Basin Rec Snowsports, Park City Mountain Kids Camp
→ "Here are three ski camps available this winter..."

Install

No installation required. Use uvx to run directly:

uvx familybugle-mcp

Or install permanently:

pip install familybugle-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "familybugle": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["familybugle-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FAMILYBUGLE_API_KEY": "fb_live_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop after saving. You'll see "familybugle" in the tools panel.

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json globally:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "familybugle": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["familybugle-mcp"],

      }
