## Setup

### Add to Claude Desktop

Edit `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hilton": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@striderlabs/mcp-hilton"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Add to Claude Code

```bash

### Authentication

1. Ask Claude to run `hilton_login` — it will return a URL
2. Open the URL in your browser and sign in to your Hilton Honors account
3. Ask Claude to run `hilton_status` to confirm the session

Session cookies are saved to `~/.strider/hilton/` and reused across sessions.

```

Booking and cancellation tools require an explicit `confirm=true` parameter. Claude will always show you a preview and ask for confirmation before placing or cancelling any reservation.

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 16 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose targeting specific actions in the Hilton booking and account management workflow, such as search_hotels for finding hotels, get_rooms for viewing room options, and cancel_reservation for cancellations, with no overlapping or ambiguous functions. The descriptions explicitly differentiate tools like checkout (for completing bookings) and modify_reservation (for changes), ensuring agents can easily select the correct tool.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern throughout, such as search_hotels, get_reservation, and cancel_reservation, with no deviations in style or convention. All tools use snake_case and clear action-oriented verbs, making the naming predictable and easy to understand for agents.

Tool Count5/5

With 16 tools, the set is well-scoped for the Hilton booking and account management domain, covering essential operations from search and booking to account management and post-booking actions. Each tool serves a specific, necessary function without redundancy, fitting the typical range for such a server.

Completeness5/5

The tool set provides complete coverage of the Hilton domain, including search, booking, modification, cancellation, account management (login, status, honors), and post-booking features like digital keys and extras. There are no obvious gaps; agents can handle the full lifecycle from initial search to checkout and beyond without dead ends.
