22,000+ Seoul public facility data for tourists: restrooms, pharmacies, WiFi, AEDs, and subway.
If you already use Seoul, the seoul mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. 22,000+ Seoul public facility data for tourists: restrooms, pharmacies, WiFi, AEDs, and subway.
Essential public facility data for AI agents helping foreign tourists in Seoul, South Korea.
Seoul Essentials is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides structured data about essential public facilities in Seoul. Designed for AI agents that assist foreign tourists with real-time queries about nearby services.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
find_places — The find_places tool exposed by this serverget_place_detail — The get_place_detail tool exposed by this serverfind_nearby — Find public facilities near GPS coordinates, sorted by distanceget_subway_timetable — The get_subway_timetable tool exposed by this serverConfiguration is passed through the environment: API_BASE_URL. 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.
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
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. Seoul's toolset — find_places, get_place_detail, find_nearby and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by do-droid; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
