What they did

Developer johnny37 used McDonald's China's official connector for agents to collect where events can be booked. These include birthday parties, themed parties, tastings and kids' reading clubs. The data feeds a simple map. The project also lets an agent answer questions like 'can I book a birthday party in Chengdu this Saturday?' It checks the rewards shop, then city, store, date and time slot.

How it went

The author reports a snapshot from 2026-10-13: 3,664 bookable stores in 281 cities, a typical 18 event types per city, and 98 automatic checks passing. Two listed events can't be booked anywhere. For Chengdu, the agent listed time slots and open spots, noting the price shown was for a different event type.

Worth knowing

The booking steps aren't written down anywhere and start in the rewards shop. Replies mix formatted text with raw data and need careful reading. Tools that place orders are blocked and never retried, because a retry could create a duplicate paid order.

Try it yourself

Using the McDonald's China MCP tools (read-only), find where I can book a [birthday party / reading club / tasting] in [your city] on [date]. Follow the chain: list experience products, then the cities that offer the one I pick, then stores, available dates and sessions. Show store names, session times, remaining slots, group-size rules and the price per person. Prices come back in fen, so convert them to yuan. Do not call any order-creation tool. I will book in the app myself.
