Is wilderness-times live?

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

Is wilderness-times free to use?

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

What tools does wilderness-times have?

7 tools: get_checklist, build_checklist, share_checklist, get_checklist_pdf, get_gear, list_checklists, find_gear.

Is wilderness-times 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.

• find_gear open 1h ago

  Search Wilderness Times' gear recommendations. TENTS: 456 tents, each scored out of 10 on its own review page — filter by how many it sleeps, seasons and weight, and they come back best-scored first. EVERYTHING ELSE (sleeping bags, stoves, coolers, chairs, packs, hatchets and ~60 more categories): returned as the Wilderness Times buying guides that cover it, each with its picks — the guide is the recommendation, so send the user to it. Use this whenever someone asks what gear to buy, which tent suits a trip, or for a recommendation on anything they would take camping or hiking. Ask in plain words ('tent for a family of 4', 'ultralight backpacking tent', 'camping chair'); filler like 'best' is ignored. Call with no query to see what is covered. Tent searches default to car camping unless the question signals backpacking. If group size matters and the user has not given it, ask before recommending. When presenting results: lead with the single top pick by its exact name, then alternatives; say Wilderness Times 'rates' or 'scores' a tent, never that it 'tested' one; use only the data returned, and say so if something is not in it. There are no prices here — if the user gave a budget, say prices are on each review rather than guessing.

• build_checklist unknown 1h ago

  Build a customised packing list from a Wilderness Times checklist: start from an activity, optionally keep only certain categories, drop items that do not apply, and add your own. Returns the tailored list plus buying-guide links for whatever survived. Use this when the user wants a list shaped to their specific trip rather than the full standard one.

• share_checklist unknown never probed

  Turn a checklist — including one the user has tailored — into a link that opens it in the free Wilderness Times checklist builder, where items tick off and it exports to PDF, Excel, Google Sheets or print with the gear links intact. Use this whenever someone has customised a list, or asks to save, share, print, download or get a PDF of THEIR list. Takes the same arguments as build_checklist, so you can share whatever you just built.

• get_checklist_pdf unknown never probed

  Get the STANDARD published Wilderness Times checklist as a ready-made PDF — the full, unedited list, free and with no signup. Available for camping, backpacking, winter camping and day hiking. IMPORTANT: this is the standard list and does NOT reflect any customisation. If the user has added, removed or filtered items, call share_checklist instead — the link it returns opens their own list in the checklist builder, which exports to PDF, Excel, Google Sheets or print with the gear links intact.

• get_gear unknown never probed

  Get everything Wilderness Times holds on one item from find_gear: the full review summary, specs, pros and cons, which retailers stock it, and — for a tent — its six category scores, community rating, other sizes of the same model, and two similar tents from other brands. Use this after find_gear when the user narrows to one thing, wants to compare two in detail, or asks what else is like a tent they are looking at (give each alternative one sentence on the key tradeoff).
