MCP server

Claude Desktop

Edit your ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) and add Lodi to your mcpServers map:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lodi-kids-activities": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://lodikidsactivities.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Quit and reopen Claude Desktop. Once Lodi is connected, ask something like “Find me free summer programs for a 6-year-old in Lodi”.

Cursor

In Cursor: Settings → MCP → Add server, or paste into your ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lodi-kids-activities": {
      "url": "https://lodikidsactivities.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

ChatGPT (Custom Connector)

1. ChatGPT → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
2. Server URL: https://lodikidsactivities.com/api/mcp
3. Auth: None (this is a public read-only server)
4. Save, then enable the connector in any chat where you want it

Available tools

Account-scoped tools (requires a token)

Generate a token in your Parent Hub → Settings → Connect AI tools. Paste it as Authorization: Bearer <token> in your MCP client config. Write tools also need per-tool consent on the same page.

What this server does NOT do (yet)

• Submit tour requests or daycare applications (still in build)
• Access another user’s data with your token — every scoped tool reads/writes only the user the token is bound to
• Run write tools without explicit per-tool consent (granted in your settings)

All those require write access + OAuth, coming in v2. For now this server is a powerful read-only browsing layer — your assistant can recommend, but the parent still clicks through to LKA to act.
