Zovo Secret Santa MCP

Zovo Secret Santa draws names for holiday gift exchanges, office parties and family swaps. It respects couples and other exclusions, and it says why when no draw is possible. Each person gets a private link that shows only whom they buy for, the budget, the date and that person's wishlist. People add their own wishlist on their page. The organizer sees which links were opened, not who buys for whom.

Server-provided instructions

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

Zovo Secret Santa draws names for a gift exchange and hosts one private page per person. create_secret_santa returns one private link per participant and an organizer link. Give each person only their own link. The draw itself is not in the result, so do not guess or state who buys for whom. show_secret_santa_status reports which links were opened. redraw_secret_santa works only before anyone opened a link.

create_secret_santa — Create Secret Santa
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Open-world

Use this when the user wants to draw names for a Secret Santa or holiday gift exchange and give each person a private link. Takes 3 to 60 names, optional couples or households who must not draw each other, one-way exclusions (for example last year's match), a budget, an exchange date and a note. Publishes a hosted page: each private link shows one person whom they buy for, the budget, the date and the match's wishlist, and each person can add their own wishlist. Returns one private link per person and an organizer link; the draw itself is not returned. Explains why when no draw is possible. Does not send emails or texts. Do not use for White Elephant games or for picking one winner.

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Use this when the organizer asks who has opened their Secret Santa link, who added a wishlist, or wants the private links again. Takes the organizer link (it contains /m/). Returns each person's link, whether and when it was first opened, and whether they added a wishlist. Does not return who buys for whom. Does not change anything. Does not work with a person's private link.

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised destructiveOpen-world

Use this when the organizer wants a new random draw for an existing Secret Santa, for example because they saw an assignment by mistake. Takes the organizer link. Works only while nobody has opened a private link; it replaces the old draw with the same rules, keeps the same private links and keeps wishlists. Does not add or remove people (make a new Secret Santa for that).
