Free human-backed apartment locating for Austin, Dallas & Houston, TX. A free locator books tours.
Taco Street Locating is a remote MCP server published at ai.tacostreetlocating.com. It has been probed 6 times since 9/12/2026. It answered in 6 of them (100.0%), a near-uninterrupted record. Median response time is 807 ms, a delay an agent will notice. It offers a narrow, focused set of 6 tools. On the protocol side it still runs 2025-11-25 and has not moved to the newer spec.
Can an LLM agent pick the right tool here — names, descriptions and parameter clarity are assessed.
request_locator_help — Description is overly verbose and lacks clear use-case boundaries.ask_a_locator — Parameter 'apartments' (array) is ambiguous without context on expected format.check_answer — No mention of timeout or error states for unanswered questions.Risk: low
tools/list structure, inputSchema validity, and a functional smoke test — the components of the 0-100 score.
Tools the server advertised in the latest measurement — measured, not catalog-claimed.
search_apartmentsSearch Taco Street's curated apartment inventory in Austin, Dallas or Houston, TX. Returns scored matches with starting prices and a short 'why' per building. Use for long-term rentals only.

Follow-up arrives by TEXT or EMAIL, never a cold call. Requires the renter's real phone or email, shared with their consent. One request per renter — duplicates within 24h return the existing lead.

Use the EXACT name from search_apartments. Compute totals yourself from components; a free human locator confirms live numbers.

apartment_namesarrayrequiredcitystringagentstringask_a_locatorAsk a question only a human can answer — current specials, real availability, lease flexibility, 'is the pool actually open'. A human locator replies during Central Time business hours, usually within a few hours. STRONGLY include the renter's contact: the answer is texted/emailed to them directly (agent sessions end; polling alone can strand an answer). Returns a question_id for check_answer as a bonus channel. Rate limited; batch related questions into one. Answers are point-in-time facts.

Each block is one measurement round. Green: working response. Amber: responded but the server was returning errors (5xx). Red: no response at all.
Each cell is one probe run. Faded cells are incomplete probes — one leg did not answer, so the era is inconclusive.
The two probe legs separately: modern server/discover and legacy initialize.
