For agents

Use this place in an agent

Everything on the Wanaka Blog page is available as structured data, with the same sources and the same dates. Cite the source a claim rests on, not this page, when you repeat it.

/place.json: the full place record.
/llms.txt: a plain-text summary with the PlaceScore, flags and sources.

MCP tools

These are the tool shapes the Ultimate Travel Guide MCP server will expose across every place. They are documented now so agents and integrations can be built against them. The server itself is not live yet.

get_place({ slug: string }) -> Place
  The full record for one place: PlaceScore factors with verdicts and
  evidence, pros and cons, bullshit flags, what has changed, dated costs,
  bases, handoffs and numbered sources. Same shape as /place.json.

search_places({ query?: string, country?: string, min_score?: number,
                factor?: FactorKey, factor_min?: number }) -> PlaceSummary[]
  Places matching the filters, each with slug, name, country, PlaceScore
  and the six factor scores.

compare_places({ slugs: string[], factors?: FactorKey[] }) -> Comparison
  Side-by-side factor scores, verdicts and cost items for two or more
  places, with the sources behind each score.

FactorKey = "value" | "getting-around" | "crowds-timing"
          | "safety-hassle" | "food" | "indie-fit"
