Pikes Peak Trip Planner MCP

Pikes Peak (Colorado) trip planning tools for AI assistants: what applies to your date and way up (drive the Pikes Peak Highway, Highway shuttle, Cog Railway, Barr Trail), whether a timed-entry permit is needed, gate and summit hours, a timeline with the noon storm cutoff, how far up the Highway is open right now with the forecast, what a group pays by car, shuttle or Cog Railway, Barr Trail and Manitou Incline hike times, and facts with sources. Same answers as the planning tools on pikespeak.info, an independent guide not affiliated with the City of Colorado Springs, the Pikes Peak Highway or the Cog Railway.

  • Endpoint: https://pikespeak.info/mcp (MCP Streamable HTTP, public, no sign-in, no API key)

      Enables agents to answer whether it's a good day to go up, hike, or take the cable car, and to rank the best day in the seven-day forecast using live weather, summit conditions, cable car status, and hours. It adds freshness warnings, out-of-forecast handling, clear errors, and an eval suite for validating agent tool use.
