What data it sees

Do you need an account

No: the server works without sign-in

Give your agent 250,000+ upcoming events in any city, already collected from 90+ sources into one deduplicated database, so it answers with one query instead of crawling the web: gigs, club nights, meetups, board games, sport, hiking, comedy, talks. Results are ranked for the signed-in person's taste, friends and music, with the reason attached and a link back to the original listing. Any town on Earth works by coordinate and radius. Free to connect.

Server tool list (33)

Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

find_placeTurn a place name into coordinates, e.g. "Bar, Montenegro" or "Peckham, London". Returns lat, lng, a tidy label, the country and the timezone — the place, lat and lng that search_events takes.
search_eventsSearch real, future events near a point. Give either place (the label find_place returned) or lat and lng. when accepts "tonight", "today", "tomorrow", "weekend", "week", "month", or use from_date/to_date as YYYY-MM-DD. Counts against the weekly search quota.
recommend_eventsEvents ranked for this person specifically, using their Palaner profile, music taste and saved plans, with a reason attached to each. Falls back to their saved city and feed distance when no place is given. next_step, when present, means nothing personal to rank on; it suggests the gap to relay, with any link for their own browser only. Counts against the weekly search quota.
get_eventEverything Palaner holds about one event: description, venue and coordinates, price, ticket link, source, who else is going (where they have agreed to be named), and similar events. Does not count against the search quota; it has its own, much larger weekly allowance.
search_event_groupsThings that work for several people at once — clubs, leagues, classes and meetups that run regularly near a place, rather than one-off events. Does not count against the search quota; it shares get_event's allowance.
find_group_venueA fair place to meet for a named group of this person's Palaner friends — somewhere no one person has to travel much further than the rest. Free.
find_restaurant_dealsRestaurant offers Palaner has already found near a place — set menus, happy hours, first-table discounts. Reads what is cached; never starts a new search. Free.
friend_lookupLook up one of this person's Palaner friends by name and see what they are into — only what that friend has chosen to share. Free.
who_is_goingWho is going to an event. Counts everyone; names only the people who have agreed to be named to this person. Free.
suggest_peoplePalaner members worth connecting with — ranked by mutual friends, area and shared interests. Free.
connect_withSend a Palaner friend request to someone, by their handle. The other person still has to accept. Free.
set_group_consentSet what this person shares inside a Palaner group chat — their profile, or their calendar availability. Free.
add_to_plansSave an event to this person's Palaner plans, or mark them going. status is "going" or "interested". Free.
my_plansWhat this person has saved and is going to, soonest first, with who else is going where those people have agreed to be named. Free.
mark_busyBlock out time in Palaner so it stops suggesting things then. Times are ISO 8601. Free.
add_to_calendarGet the calendar entry for an event: the .ics text, ready to hand over or save, and a link that downloads the same file. Free.
get_my_profileEverything Palaner knows about this person and ranks events with: interests, city, feed distance, mood, currency, remembered preferences, connected music services, and searches left this week. A long list is a sample — `bounded` has the real total, `full` returns one whole. next_step, when present, suggests the one gap to relay; a link in it is for their own browser only. Free.
set_profile_fieldSet one thing on their Palaner profile. Allowed fields: name, age, gender, career, postcode, home_area_label, city, fave_spots, people_they_want_to_meet, heritage_countries, languages, fave_performers, fave_comedians, hobbies, time_of_day_preference, activity_level, friend_names_on_app, social_handles, audience_filters. Free.
set_professional_profileStore what this person does for work, so Palaner can suggest events that fit it, from fields already extracted from a CV or LinkedIn profile — this tool does not parse or fetch any document itself, and Palaner never receives one. Every field is optional. Free.
remember_preferenceStore something durable about what they like or dislike, in their own words — "loves outdoor techno", "can't do anything before 11am". Palaner ranks with it from then on. Free.
forget_preferenceRemove something Palaner remembers about their taste, and stop it being re-derived from their music. Free.
set_moodStamp how much energy they have today: low, med, high, or clear to unset it. The feed ranks differently for each. Free.
set_citySet the city their Palaner feed is centred on. Free.
set_feed_radiusSet how far they are willing to travel, in kilometres. Searches and their feed both respect it. Free.
set_circumstanceWhy they are in this city: local, first_timer, business or holidaymaker. Changes how the feed weighs things. Free.
set_display_currencySet the currency prices are shown in, as an ISO 4217 code. Free.
downweight_categoryShow less of a category in their feed — music, sport, art, comedy, talk, work, hobby. Free.
bend_feedNudge their feed by multiplying one or more named scoring signals: scarcity, rsvp, rsvp_velocity, cross_source, time_fit, novelty, weather_fit, pro_curator_match, venue_busyness, venue_rating. Each value is a factor clamped to 0.67-1.5 — under 1 de-emphasises that signal, over 1 amplifies it. There is no price or distance signal here; for a distance limit use set_feed_radius instead. Free.
hide_eventTell Palaner this event is not their thing, so it stops suggesting it and things like it. Free.
record_feedbackPass on something they said about Palaner itself. kind is bug, idea, crash or gap. Goes to the product feedback log, never to their profile. Free.
