    Given a city and a few favourites for each of two people (artists, films, shows, books, brands), returns up to six places both would enjoy, ranked by Qloo's taste graph, each with the reason and in evening order (something to do, food, a drink). Picks marked basis=combined come from Qloo's list for the combined taste because the two personal top-20 lists did not overlap enough.

Taste Overlap

Two people, a few favourites each (artists, films, shows, books, places). Qloo's taste graph ranks places in your city for person A, for person B and for both together. Taste Overlap keeps only the places that rank well for both (harmonic mean of the two affinities, so one-sided picks drop out), explains each pick with the shared taste tags, and orders them into an evening: something to do, food, then a drink.

Without Qloo there is nothing to show: the overlap is computed from Qloo's per-person affinities, not from an LLM guess.

Run

Needs Node.js 22.19+ and the official Qloo harness (the supported event surface):

npm install --global @qloo/qloo-harness   # qloo --version >= 0.1.26
export QLOO_API_KEY=...                    # the hackathon key (or: qloo setup --qloo)
export QLOO_BASE_URL=https://hackathon.api.qloo.com
export QLOO_TRUSTED_BASE_URL=https://hackathon.api.qloo.com   # the harness only sends a key to an approved endpoint
npm start                                  # http://localhost:8787

Demo without credentials: QLOO_TRANSPORT=demo npm start replays a real recorded run (demo/vienna.json, 11 qloo exec calls) through the same code. Only that example works (Vienna; Radiohead + Wes Anderson / Taylor Swift + Studio Ghibli); other inputs return an error instead of invented places.

Optional: QLOOTRANSPORT=rest with QLOOAPIKEY uses the direct REST client (src/qloo.js) instead; QLOOBASE, PORT.

Use it from an agent (MCP tool)

Remote, nothing to install: the live demo also speaks MCP at https://taste-overlap.onrender.com/mcp (streamable HTTP, JSON answers). In claude.ai or the Claude app: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste that URL. Tool calls share the demo's per-visitor and daily limits.

Local (stdio):

Taste Overlap is also an agent tool: mcp-server.js is a dependency-free MCP stdio server with one tool, plansharedevening (city, persona[], personb[]). It returns the explained evening as text plus structured content, and any MCP client can call it:

claude mcp add taste-overlap -- node /path/to/taste-overlap/mcp-server.js   # Claude Code
# or in claude_desktop_config.json / Cursor: {"command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/mcp-server.js"],
#   "env": {"QLOO_API_KEY": "...", "QLOO_BASE_URL": "https://hackathon.api.qloo.com", "QLOO_TRUSTED_BASE_URL": "https://hackathon.api.qloo.com"}}

Without a key, QLOO_TRANSPORT=demo makes the tool answer the recorded Vienna example.
