WRDO MCP server

• get_businessFree

  One business's public WRDO page: name, category, area, whether it is verified, and (for verified businesses) its description, address, opening hours (hours, as the business wrote them), website and menu link. Also open_now (true, false or null when hours are missing or unreadable) and reviews: WRDO's own reviews only (count, average_rating and up to 3 recent comments; never copied from Google or other sites; count 0 with a note when there are none). For one business already found; to look for businesses use search_local_businesses, and for prices use get_price_list. Takes the id from a search_local_businesses result. An unknown or malformed id returns an error ("WRDO has no public business with that id"), not an empty page. Never a phone number or email.

• get_price_listFree

  A business's price list or menu, for any kind of business (salon, barber, nails, beauty, restaurant): sections of items with name, description, price_zar (rand) and, for services, duration_min. prices_confirmed is false (with a price_note) when the prices come from the business website and are not confirmed. For a business already found (has_price_list is true in search_local_businesses); it is not a search and gives no business details (use get_business). Takes the id from a search_local_businesses result. An unknown or malformed id returns an error ("WRDO has no public business with that id"); a known business with no list returns empty sections. Never a phone number or email.

• list_areasFree

  The towns and suburbs in the Western Cape where WRDO has listings, each with its region and how many businesses (suburbs counted in their town). Gives the valid names for "where" in search_local_businesses and list_categories. Optional "query" keeps areas whose name or region contains it (e.g. "paarl" or "winelands"). Most businesses first, up to 100; areas with none are left out. Western Cape only. Names and counts only: no business or contact details.

• list_categoriesFree

  The kinds of business WRDO lists in the Western Cape, with how many of each, for a town or suburb or everywhere. Answers "what is there in Paarl?". Each slug is a valid "category" for search_local_businesses. Most businesses first; categories with none are left out. Outside the Western Cape it returns nothing. No business details, no contact details.

• search_local_businessesFree

  Find local businesses on WRDO in the Western Cape by what they do (or their name), optionally in a town or suburb, optionally narrowed by category, price list, price and whether they are open now. Example: "hairdressers in Paarl under R200 that are open now". Give "what" (words) and/or "category" (an exact slug from list_categories). Returns id, name, category, area, verified (claimed by the owner), page_url, start_url, has_price_list, price_from_rand (cheapest listed price, rand, or null) and open_now (true, false or null when unknown). When any of has_price_list, max_price_rand or open_now is used, only the top 100 matches are checked (a message says so). open_now uses opening hours that verified businesses publish; a business without readable hours is left out when open_now is true. No contact details: to reach a business, give the person its start_url.

• start_requestFree

  Get a link the person opens to ask WRDO for a quote, booking or order (optionally from one business). The person finishes in WRDO. This tool never books, charges or creates an account. It only starts a request: nothing is booked until the business confirms in WRDO. The result is a plain wa.me link with the request already typed in; it is not stored, has no token and does not expire. Nothing is sent or saved until the person opens it and sends the message. "what" is required; business_id is optional and must come from search_local_businesses (an unknown id returns an error).
