cambio-uruguay-mcp

A Model Context Protocol server that lets any AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Cline, …) search Uruguay: rentals ranked for a whole household, fair rent and neighbourhoods, property and used-car opportunities, used cars, product prices, and live exchange rates across every casa de cambio.

Read-only wrapper over the public cambio-uruguay.com API. No account, no API key, no scraping.

Quick start (local, stdio)

No install needed — run it with npx:

npx cambio-uruguay-mcp

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cambio-uruguay": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "cambio-uruguay-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

.cursor/mcp.json (or Settings → MCP):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cambio-uruguay": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "cambio-uruguay-mcp"] }
  }
}

Cline / Continue / other stdio clients

Same shape: command npx, args ["-y", "cambio-uruguay-mcp"].

Hosted endpoint (remote, no install)

A public Streamable-HTTP endpoint is available for clients that support remote MCP servers:

https://mcp.cambio-uruguay.com/mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cambio-uruguay": { "url": "https://mcp.cambio-uruguay.com/mcp" }
  }
}

It is stateless and read-only.

Toolsets

29 read-only tools in five toolsets. The hosted endpoint serves all of them at /mcp, or one toolset per path so a client only loads what it needs:

Path	Toolset	What it covers
`/mcp`	all	everything below
`/mcp/alquileres`	rentals	~57,000 rental homes from 5 portals, household ranking, fair rent, neighbourhoods, opportunities
`/mcp/autos`	used cars	~19,000 used cars from 10 sources, opportunities, declared risks, model prices, market report
`/mcp/productos`	products	phones, desk chairs, 38 home categories, e-mobility, online-store signals, supermarket prices
`/mcp/sitio`	the whole site	search every page of cambio-uruguay.com (guides, tools, glossary, data pages), read a page, the site menu
`/mcp/cambio`	exchange rates	the original 7 tools

For stdio set MCP_TOOLSETS=alquileres,autos (default: all).

Prompts

buscar-alquiler, evaluar-aviso-alquiler, comparar-barrios, buscar-auto-usado, evaluar-auto, equipar-casa and analizar-dolar-hoy: guided workflows (interview, chain the tools, short list with links). The server also sends instructions at initialisation with the domain rules, so answers stay good even without the skill.

Skill (Claude)

skills/buscador-uruguay/ is an Agent Skill that teaches the workflow and the Uruguayan domain rules, and falls back to the public HTTP API when no MCP is connected. Download the zip from cambio-uruguay.com/descargas/buscador-uruguay-skill.zip and upload it in Claude (Settings → Capabilities → Skills), or copy the folder to ~/.claude/skills/ for Claude Code. After editing it run npm run pack-skill (a test fails if the zip drifts).

Step-by-step for every client: cambio-uruguay.com/buscar-con-ia.

`SITE_BASE_URL`	Upstream site API for rentals, cars and products	`https://cambio-uruguay.com`

TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored 2026-09-06 06:40 across 7 tools

Disambiguation3/5

get_rates and best_house overlap because get_rates already provides the best buy/sell house and the full per-house list, making best_house a subset rather than a clearly distinct tool. The other tools are well separated by current rates, historical data, conversion, news, and summary.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tool names follow a get_/list_ + noun snake_case pattern, but best_house, convert, and daily_summary deviate from that verb-prefix convention. The naming is still readable, consistent in casing, and easy to infer.

Tool Count5/5

Seven tools is well-scoped for a Uruguayan exchange-rate domain, covering rates, best house, conversion, house list, history, news, and summary. Each tool earns its place without excessive fragmentation.

Completeness4/5

Core workflows are covered: current rates, best house, conversion, exchange house reference data, historical series, news, and daily analysis. Minor gaps such as market-level historical averages or multi-currency batch rates would need workarounds, but they do not block the main use cases.
