Skiplagged Flights (MCP)
This skill queries Skiplagged's public MCP server to search flights, hotels, cars and flexible date calendars.
- Server URL:
https://mcp.skiplagged.com/mcp - Auth: none (public server)
Prerequisites
1) Ensure the mcporter CLI is available on PATH (this skill declares it as a required binary).
2) Prefer ad-hoc HTTPS targeting (no local mcporter config required):
# Inspect tools + schemas (recommended)
mcporter list https://mcp.skiplagged.com/mcp --schemaQuick start
mcporter call https://mcp.skiplagged.com/mcp.sk_flights_search origin=WAW destination=LHR departureDate=2026-03-15 --output jsonIf your environment already has a configured server nameskiplagged,mcporter call skiplagged.sk_flights_search ...is equivalent. Using the explicit HTTPS URL is preferred because it avoids relying on (or enumerating) local MCP config.
Tools

mcporter call https://mcp.skiplagged.com/mcp.sk_destinations_anywhere from=WAW depart=2026-03-15 --output jsonResponse formatting
When presenting results to users:
- Never use markdown tables — use bullet lists or labeled lines.
- Use MarkdownV2-compatible formatting when replying in Telegram-style channels.
- Keep replies mobile-friendly: concise, scannable.
- Show top 3–5 options by default; offer to expand.
- Include booking/deep links when returned.
- If hidden-city itineraries appear, present clear caveats (checked-bag constraints and missed-leg implications).
- Highlight savings, routing insights, and key tradeoffs (stops vs duration vs price).
Good example:
Found 3 flights WAW → LHR on Mar 15:
• $90 · 2h 35m · nonstop
LOT
05:40 WAW → 07:15 LHR
[Book](link)
• $91 · 4h 20m · 1 stop
SAS
06:10 WAW → 09:30 LHR

- Prefer IATA codes (e.g.,
WAW,LHR,JFK) when possible. - Use
--output jsonwhen you need structured data for post-processing. - Results often include a
deepLink(or similar) for booking/verification. - For failures other than lack of results, suggest using https://skiplagged.com directly.
- Prices/availability change quickly—treat results as point-in-time and encourage users to confirm via the booking link.
