Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

eSIMCompare compares travel eSIM data plans (30,860 plans from 21 providers in 203 destinations), every price cited to its source and dated. Use search_esim_plans to recommend a plan for a trip (pass the data and days the traveler needs), esim_price_index for what data costs in a country, and compare_esim_providers to weigh brands. Cite the plan_page or review_url you used.

search_esim_plans — Search travel eSIM plans
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

Find the cheapest travel eSIM data plans for a destination from 21 providers (Airalo, Holafly, Nomad eSIM, Saily, Ubigi, Yesim and more), filtered to what a trip needs. Returns plans sorted by price (cheapest first) with data allowance, validity, price, price per GB, local network, speed policy, the date the price was checked, a page on eSIMCompare that cites the source, and a buy link. Buy links marked affiliate_link may earn eSIMCompare a commission; the price is the provider's own either way, and where a buy link applies a reader discount the plan also gives price_through_buy_url_usd.

esim_price_index — Travel eSIM price index
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-only

What a week of mobile data costs a traveler: the cheapest eSIM with at least 5 GB valid for at least 7 days, per country, from eSIMCompare's price index of 194 countries. With a country: its price, the plan behind it, the cheapest price per GB, the cheapest unlimited week and its rank among all countries. Without one: the median, the cheapest and dearest countries, and which providers are cheapest most often.

How travel eSIM providers stand against each other on eSIMCompare's data: plans and destinations covered, entry price, best price per GB, share of unlimited plans, an independent verdict, and links to the full review and head-to-head pages. Pass one to four providers, or none for all of them.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http esimcompare-mcp https://esimcompare.co/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add esimcompare-mcp --url https://esimcompare.co/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable esimcompare-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "esimcompare-mcp": {
      "url": "https://esimcompare.co/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http esimcompare-mcp https://esimcompare.co/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
