Build a trip plan with the Extro MCP

A practical Extro MCP workflow for researching a destination and creating a shareable list of events and places.

A strong Extro trip begins with reviewed public recommendations, confirms time-sensitive facts, and writes only after the traveler approves the plan.

  1. Understand the trip.

    Ask for city, dates, group, budget, interests, pace, dietary needs, and fixed commitments.

  2. Research recommendations.

    Use published Extro guides as one source, then verify changing facts such as dates, hours, prices, availability, age restrictions, and reservations with current primary sources.

  3. Build the list.

    After account connection and approval, send supported links, structured event/place JSON, or both to create_list_from_recommendations. Extro returns one private share link immediately while supported links finish extracting.

  4. Check completion.

    Poll get_list_build_status and resolve any item marked needs review or failed without discarding successful items.

  5. Order and present.

    Use set_list_order when the traveler wants favorites or tiers, then return the Extro list link with a concise itinerary summary.

Example request

“Plan a long weekend in New York for four friends who like great restaurants, live music, and cocktail bars. Keep Sunday relaxed and put everything in an Extro list.”

Good result

The final list mixes scheduled events with flexible places, explains why each item fits, respects travel time, and provides alternatives when reservations or tickets are unavailable.
