What is the Rollin MCP server?

Wheelchair accessibility scores for 70,000+ US restaurants. Search, filter, and submit feedback. That is what the rollin mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

Wheelchair accessibility data for 105,000+ locations across 15 US states — delivered through the Model Context Protocol.

Getting it running

rollin-mcp-server on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 5 tools. What each one is for:

  • search_locations — Search accessible venues by location, query, and accessibility criteria
  • get_location_details — Returns: score (0-100), 6 tracked features (wheelchair_entry, accessible_restroom, level_entry, parking, elevator, wide_aisles), environment/lighting
  • list_regions — The list_regions tool exposed by this server
  • submit_feedback — The submit_feedback tool exposed by this server
  • check_health — The check_health tool exposed by this server

What it needs from you

Configuration is passed through the environment: ROLLIN_API_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Things to watch

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

How it compares

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Rollin's toolset — search_locations, get_location_details, list_regions and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by DavidSirota; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Rollin to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 5 tools (search_locations, get_location_details, list_regions, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Rollin directly.
