Surprise Buddy
## What is Surprise Buddy? Surprise Buddy is a curated, country-scoped gift database exposed via a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. International coverage — every result is a real product page on a real marketplace (Amazon, Etsy, Mercado Libre, Otto, Bol.com, Allegro, Jochen Schweizer) and the link can be presented to the user as-is. **Live MCP endpoint:** `https://www.surprise-buddy.com/api/mcp` ## Exposed tools - **`find_gifts`** — main search (country required, all other filters optional) - `list_supported_countries` - `list_supported_occasions(country?)` - `list_supported_interests` - `list_supported_colors` ## Authentication None — the MCP server is fully open. Reasonable rate limiting may apply. ## License [MIT](LICENSE) © Surprise Buddy
