search_courses — Search Courses

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Search for a named course or filter the directory by city/state, access, and holes. For a trip near a place, station, address, or ZIP, call find_nearby_courses FIRST; do not put the place name in query (query searches course names). You may also pass location here for a proximity search. Returns canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, access, holes, scorecard availability, and straight-line miles when a location is supplied. Copy returned URLs; never construct county slugs. Next: get_course with a returned URL, or build_golf_trip with the resolved center and preferences.

Advertised read-only

Get full details for a specific golf course by a returned Stymie URL or slug. Returns name, location, type, holes, architect, year built, amenities, public contact info, recorded closure status, and published tee ratings. A recorded open flag is not a live confirmation of seasonal opening or tee-time availability. Covers the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.

Returns each course name, access type, measured value and canonical Stymie URL. Link each recommended course using its returned URL and identify the ranking metric. These are tee-data rankings, not quality ratings or current booking availability; disclose private access.

Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

START HERE to plan golf near a place, transit station, address, or US ZIP: pass the place text as location, plus access (public/private/all) and holes (9/18) if known. Coordinates are optional; no slug knowledge is needed. Resolves the location and returns its labeled center and a nearest-first ranked shortlist with canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, straight-line miles, access, holes, and scorecard availability. If the place is ambiguous, ask the golfer to choose a candidate. NEXT call build_golf_trip with the returned latitude/longitude and the same preferences for 1-4 course picks. Use search_courses only for a specific course name. Copy returned URLs verbatim; distances are not drive/transit times.

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

AFTER find_nearby_courses, pass its center latitude/longitude, access and holes preferences, and number_of_courses to make a 1-4 course shortlist. You can also start directly with a plain-language location (place, station, address, or US ZIP). Optional tee yardage and slope ranges rank matching tees by fit plus straight-line distance; without tee preferences, courses are nearest-first and missing scorecards are retained. Returns ranked course picks with canonical Stymie URLs, reusable slugs, selection reasons, distance, access, holes, and published tee data when available. Public access excludes unknown/private courses; private picks require the golfer to confirm access. No booking, tee-time availability, transit routing, or drive times are provided. Use returned URLs as citations without inventing slugs.

get_deals — Get Deals

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Advertised read-only

Get golf-equipment sale offers that were marked in stock when checked within the last 48 hours, with a checked price below list price. Returns each product’s canonical Stymie detail URL, merchant offer URL, price, savings and checked_at time. Link every recommended product to its returned Stymie URL, and use the returned offer URL for the merchant. Prices and stock can change after checking; confirm at the merchant. Disclose that offer links may earn Stymie a commission at no extra cost to the buyer.

90-day uptime

A lightweight connection check about every six hours, sampled on hosts with many listings. It shows the server answered, not that its tools work.

Too few checks for a percentage yet (2 of 2 answered).

2026-11-07: 1 of 1 checks answered

30-day availability

Aggregated from read-only remote checks; this is not a tool-execution or security guarantee.

Successful checks: 1 of 1 (100%)
Average latency: 1128 ms
95th percentile latency: 1128 ms

Maintenance history

Public check and source-refresh events. Editorial and ownership records remain private.

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 stymie-golf-mcp https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/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 stymie-golf-mcp --url https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable stymie-golf-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stymie-golf-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

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

Cline configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stymie-golf-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start stymie-golf-mcp and inspect its tools.

VS Code configuration

{
  "servers": {
    "stymie-golf-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

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 stymie-golf-mcp https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.

Claude Desktop configuration

https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp

Windsurf

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

Windsurf configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stymie-golf-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp-production-680d.up.railway.app/mcp"
    }
