Ripe MCP Setup & Authentication

Getting started

The Ripe MCP follows a basic authentication flow where each developer can request one or more tokens to use for various applications. The token is associated with your email address or a service account.

Get started:

1. Visit https://mcp.bookripe.com/v1/mcp-global/keys/request

2. Complete the fields, including email and label

   

3. Check your email to retrieve the token

4. Copy it, and include that token in your request header going forward for your application

You can generate multiple tokens for various applications or use cases. A token can be revoked by Ripe at any time for abuse, rate limits, or other cases that abuse our policy.

Using Ripe within Claude

To setup the MCP with Claude, follow the instructions above to generate a token.

Next:

• Go to Claude
• Customize
• Connectors
• Add
• Add a custom connetor
• In the field Remote MCP server URL add this URL path, taking note to include your unique token at the end https://mcp.bookripe.com/v1/mcp-global/k/ripemcpyour unique token
• Save changes

Now, ask Claude to use Ripe to look up properties within your city, or account ID.

A simple flow to try first:

1. Ask your assistant something like: "Find a pet-friendly place to stay in Park City next weekend, under $400 a night."
2. It should call search_properties with a location, dates, a price ceiling, and the "Pets allowed" amenity.
3. For a top candidate, it should follow up with get_property_availability to confirm the real price and bookability before answering you.
4. The response should include a direct link back to the live booking page to complete a reservation.
