Adding support for MCP Servers

FindYourFivePM Now Supports AI Integration with Model Context Protocol (MCP)

We're excited to announce that FindYourFivePM now supports integration with AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol (MCP)! This means you can now discover cities where it's 5PM right now directly from your AI conversations.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely connect to external data sources and tools. It enables AI assistants to access real-time information and perform actions on behalf of users, making conversations more dynamic and useful.

How to Connect FindYourFivePM to Your AI Assistant

We've made it easy to integrate FindYourFivePM with your favorite AI tools. Here are two ways to get started:

For MCP-Compatible Clients:

If your AI client supports Streamable HTTP connections, simply add our server URL:

https://mcp.findyourfivepm.com

For Amazon Q CLI Users:

Add this configuration to your Q CLI mcp.json file:

"findyourfivepm": {
  "command": "npx",
  "args": [
    "-y",
    "mcp-remote@latest",
    "https://mcp.findyourfivepm.com"
  ],
  "disabled": false,
  "autoApprove": ["find_random_fivepm_city", "get_city_info"]
}

Available Tools

Once connected, your AI assistant will have access to two powerful tools:

  1. find_random_fivepm_city - Discover a random city where it's currently between 5:00-5:59 PM local time
  2. get_city_info - Get detailed information about a specific city using its geonameid

Each response includes comprehensive city details like location coordinates, timezone information, administrative regions, and a direct link to explore the city on our interactive map.

Why This Matters

This integration brings the joy of discovering 5PM moments worldwide directly into your AI workflows. Whether you're:

  • Planning international meetings and want to know where people are winding down
  • Looking for conversation starters about global locations
  • Exploring the world virtually during your own 5PM moment
  • Building applications that need timezone-aware city data

Our MCP server makes it seamless to access this information without leaving your AI conversation.

Technical Implementation

Behind the scenes, we've built a robust MCP server using TypeScript and AWS Lambda. The server follows a stateless architecture for optimal performance and reliability. It integrates with our existing city database of over 200,000 locations worldwide, ensuring you always get accurate, real-time 5PM information.

The server is hosted at mcp.findyourfivepm.com with SSL encryption and follows MCP protocol specifications for secure, reliable communication with AI clients.

Getting Started

Visit the AI Integration section on our website to find detailed setup instructions and code examples. The integration takes just a few minutes to configure, and you'll immediately have access to global 5PM discovery right in your AI conversations.

We're excited to see how you'll use this new capability to explore the world's 5PM moments. As always, it's 5 o'clock somewhere - now your AI assistant can help you find exactly where!
