Thais FAQs

Question 1

What is Thais and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

Thais is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to integrate your Thais Hotel PMS data with AI agents, such as Anthropic's Claude. It enables AI to query real-time room availability and list room types, automating data interaction for intelligent applications.

Question 2

How does Thais connect hotel data to AI agents?

Accepted Answer

Thais exposes hotel booking data as discoverable tools via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). AI agents can connect by directly using the provided HTTP MCP server URL or through an HTTP-to-stdio bridge like 'mcp-remote' for clients that expect stdio.

Question 3

What specific information can AI agents access through Thais?

Accepted Answer

AI agents can utilize Thais to 'get_room_availability' for specified date ranges, checking real-time occupancy. They can also use 'thais_list_room_types' to retrieve a catalog of room type IDs and their human-readable names.

Question 4

What are the technical requirements to run Thais?

Accepted Answer

To run Thais, you need Node.js 18+ and npm installed. You also require valid Thais Partner API credentials (USERNAME and PASSWORD), which should be configured as environment variables in a '.env' file.

Question 5

Is Thais secure for handling hotel PMS data?

Accepted Answer

Thais incorporates a secure login flow via bearer tokens for authenticating with the Thais Partner API. It uses Zod schema validation for tool inputs and provides structured error responses for client-safe failures. Users are advised to use dedicated API credentials and never commit sensitive `.env` files.
