Claude Desktop travel search_flights

How to: Claude Desktop travel search_flights

client:Claude Desktop transport:streamable-http tool:search_flights

Add travel to Claude Desktop

  1. 01

    Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "travel": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.autonomad.ai/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

  2. 03

    Ask for something search_flights does. Claude Desktop lists the server's tools on connect and calls search_flights itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that travel's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Claude Desktop has no remote transport in its config file, so this bridges through mcp-remote. Restart the app after saving. Claude Desktop docs

Set these first

travel will not start until these are set, so search_flights never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
