Travel Agent MCP Server

Travel Agent MCP Server

by nxGnosis

TravelAgentMCP šŸŒāœˆļø

A monorepo of MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers for the TVA OTA platform: flight and hotel search & booking, visa and immigration requirements & booking tracking, and user account management — built for AI travel agents.

Architecture

TravelAgentMCP/
ā”œā”€ā”€ mcps/
│   ā”œā”€ā”€ shared/            @travelagent-mcp/shared — HTTP client, config, guardrails, tool helper (not a server)
│   ā”œā”€ā”€ flight-mcp/        tva-flight-mcp   — search, pricing, seatmaps, booking lifecycle
│   ā”œā”€ā”€ hotel-mcp/         tva-hotel-mcp    — search, availability, booking lifecycle
│   ā”œā”€ā”€ visa-mcp/          tva-visa-mcp     — country requirements + booking tracking
│   ā”œā”€ā”€ immigration-mcp/   tva-immigration-mcp — service info + booking tracking
│   └── account-mcp/       tva-account-mcp  — auth, profile, promo codes, notifications
└── src/index.ts           travelagent-mcp  — gateway that mounts all five servers' tools in one process

Each mcps/* package is an independently runnable stdio MCP server with its own bin. Run the ones you need (e.g. only tva-flight-mcp + tva-hotel-mcp for a booking widget, or only tva-visa-mcp + tva-immigration-mcp for an advisory bot), or run the root gateway (travelagent-mcp) to get everything in one process — this is what the published npm package has always been, kept for backward compatibility.

One upstream API, two auth modes:

  • TVA OTA backend (TVA_BASE_URL) — flights, hotels, bookings, account, and the "client" side of visa/immigration booking tracking (updates, notifications, transactions). Most booking-management endpoints require a bearer token; guest checkout flows (book, cancel-by-UUID, verify, resend-ticket) do not.

  • Visa/Immigration content (same TVA_BASE_URL, authenticated via CONTENT_API_KEY instead of a bearer token) — country requirements, visa types, fees and FAQs, used only by GET_VISA_INFO_BY_COUNTRY / GET_IMMIGRATION_INFO_BY_COUNTRY.

Guardrails

  • Least privilege: only user-facing endpoints are exposed. Admin/ops endpoints (booking management, refunds, revenue stats) are deliberately not wrapped as tools — they're not appropriate for a conversational agent.

  • Explicit confirmation: every tool that moves money or is irreversible (BOOK_FLIGHT, BOOK_HOTEL, CANCEL_FLIGHT_BOOKING, CANCEL_HOTEL_BOOKING, CONFIRM_FLIGHT_PAYMENT, CONFIRM_HOTEL_PAYMENT, SELECT_FLIGHT_SEAT, CHANGE_PASSWORD, CLOSE_ACCOUNT) requires confirm: true, which the calling agent should only set after reading the specific details back to the user.

  • No secrets in the LLM's context: TVA_ACCESS_TOKEN is never a tool parameter — it's read from the process environment, injected per user session by whichever agent spawns these servers. LOGIN_USER / SOCIAL_AUTH_LOGIN return the token wrapped in a __session envelope for the spawning agent to intercept and store out-of-band; the model only ever sees a plain confirmation message. See mcps/account-mcp/src/lib/session.ts for the contract.

  • No raw offer replay: Amadeus flight offers are large opaque JSON blobs. SEARCH_FLIGHTS caches each offer server-side (SQLite, see mcps/flight-mcp/src/lib/offerCache.ts) and hands the model a short offerRef instead — the model never reconstructs offer JSON by hand, which would risk token bloat or silent price/fare corruption.

  • Redaction: passwords, tokens, OTPs and card numbers are masked before anything is logged (see mcps/shared/src/guardrails.ts).

  • Known risk — hotel payments: BOOK_HOTEL currently takes raw card details directly (the TVA hotel API has no tokenized checkout step yet). This must only be called by a client that collected card details through a secure, PCI-compliant surface — never by prompting a user to type a card number into chat. See the tool's description for details.

  • Rate limiting: each tool call is throttled per-process (defense against a runaway function-calling loop). This is not a substitute for persistent, cross-turn throttling — track abuse persistently at the session layer if you need real protection.

Setup

pnpm install
cp .env.example .env   # fill in TVA_BASE_URL and content-API keys
pnpm build              # builds mcps/shared first, then every domain server, then the gateway

Run the gateway (all tools in one process):

pnpm start

Or run a single domain server directly:

node mcps/flight-mcp/dist/index.js

Consumed by

MegaMind's NomadSage travel agent spawns these servers (via stdio, one per domain) alongside its knowledge-base search and social-mcp reply tools — see travel-agent/src/lib/tva-client.ts and travel-agent/src/lib/tva-session.ts in that repo.

    TDQS

    C2.8/5.0

    Scored across 2 tools

    Disambiguation2/5

    The two tools have unclear boundaries and significant overlap. 'Immigration information' and 'visa information' are closely related concepts in travel, and their descriptions do not clearly differentiate what each tool provides, leading to potential confusion for an agent trying to select the right one.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    The tool names follow a consistent pattern of uppercase snake_case with a clear 'GET_<domain>_BY_COUNTRY' structure. Both tools use the same verb ('GET') and format, making them predictable and easy to parse.

    Tool Count2/5

    With only 2 tools, the server feels thin for a 'Travel Agent' domain, which typically involves broader functionality like booking flights, hotels, or checking travel advisories. The limited scope suggests an incomplete or overly narrow implementation.

    Completeness2/5

    The server is severely incomplete for a travel agent purpose. It lacks core travel operations such as searching for flights, booking accommodations, checking weather, or providing general travel tips, leaving obvious gaps that will hinder agent workflows.
