Is china-footnotes live?

Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 1h ago). It answered 100% of checks over the last 30 days.

Is china-footnotes free to use?

Yes — the hub reached it with no key and no payment.

What tools does china-footnotes have?

5 tools: get_pretrip_topic, get_place, get_current_notices, list_pretrip_topics, search_places.

Is china-footnotes safe to connect?

The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

• get_current_notices open 1h ago

  List dated notices in effect today (Asia/Shanghai) for places in the China Footnotes guide, such as holiday traffic controls, temporary closures and special opening hours. Only notices the editors have entered are included; this is not a live news feed, and an empty list does not mean nothing has changed.

• search_places open 1h ago

  Search the China Footnotes guide for sights and neighbourhoods a first-time foreign visitor might go to. Matches English or Chinese names, aliases, district, type and tags. Suited to questions about what to see or do in a covered city, and to finding a place's id from its name. Coverage today: Shanghai (50 places), Beijing (20 places), Xi’an (10 places), Chengdu (12 places), Chongqing (10 places), Hangzhou (10 places). Returns short summaries with ids and page links, best match first; matchedAll is false when no place matched the whole query and the results only share some words with it. Opening hours, tickets, booking and traveler tips come from get_place.

• get_pretrip_topic unknown never probed

  Get one China Footnotes "Before you go" topic by id: the essentials, a checklist, dated items such as holiday crowd calendars or rule changes, traveler tips and sources. Topic ids: when-to-go, visa, arrival-card, payments, internet, apps, book-ahead, getting-around, safety. Rules such as visa policy change, so each item carries the date it was checked.

• get_place unknown never probed

  Get the full China Footnotes entry for one place by id (from search_places): why go, what to do, opening hours with weekday and seasonal rules, ticket prices, booking channels and whether passports work, last entry, metro and taxi directions, notices in effect, current and upcoming events (temporary festivals, exhibitions and shows), what was searched but not found, traveler tips, and every source with its link. Each practical field carries a status and the date its source was read; it is not a live confirmation for today.
