Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Pre-opening US restaurant and bar leads, scored from liquor, permit and business filings.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Marketing & social media
  • You need to fill in: X-API-Key

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http restosignals https://api.restosignals.com/mcp --header 'X-API-Key: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "restosignals": {
      "url": "https://api.restosignals.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

      }
    }

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • coverage

    List the states RestoSignals currently has data for and how many scored venues each holds (with a count of hot leads, opening_score >= 80). Call this FIRST to see live inventory before new_openings — querying a state with no data returns nothing. Free (0 credits).

  • new_openings

    Find restaurants/bars about to open in a state, ranked by opening_score (0-100). Fuses liquor licenses, food permits and new-business filings into one scored venue. signal_types on each lead are 'liquor', 'food_permit' and 'business'. Live states: NY, TX, IL, OR, CO, WA, CA (call

  • watch_area

    Register a webhook that fires when a new matching venue opens in an area. criteria = {state, city, signal_type, min_opening_score}. Free.

  • venue_signals

    Return the raw underlying signals (liquor/permit/business filings) that were fused into one venue, for transparency. 1 credit.

Common questions

Is RestoSignals safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: X-API-Key

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 22 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

RestoSignals MCP — restaurants and bars before they open

Remote MCP server, REST API and agent skill for pre-opening restaurant leads in the US. RestoSignals fuses public liquor-license applications, food-service permits and new-business filings into one deduped venue, scores how close it is to opening (opening_score 0–100), and attaches the owner contact found in those filings.

Built for anyone who sells to new restaurants — POS and merchant-services resellers, beverage distributors, insurers, equipment suppliers — and for agents that prospect on their behalf.

  • MCP endpoint: https://api.restosignals.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
  • Auth: API key in X-API-Key (or Authorization: Bearer pk_...)
  • Free key: https://restosignals.com/signup (100 lead credits, no card)
  • Docs: https://restosignals.com/restoapi · OpenAPI: https://api.restosignals.com/openapi.json
  • Website: https://restosignals.com

Quick start

Add the server to Claude Desktop / Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf or any MCP client:

{

"mcpServers": { "restosignals": { "url": "https://api.restosignals.com/mcp", "headers": { "X-API-Key": "pk_YOUR_KEY" } } } }

Claude Code one-liner:

claude mcp add --transport http restosignals https://api.restosignals.com/mcp --header "X-API-Key: pk_YOUR_KEY"

Then ask: *"Which restaurants are about to open in New York? Strongest leads first."*

Tools

ToolWhat it doesCost
coverageLive states with venue and hot-lead counts. Call this first.Free
new_openingsScored upcoming venues for a state (state, min_score, limit)1 credit per lead
venue_signalsThe raw liquor / permit / business filings fused into one venue1 credit
watch_areaWebhook that fires when a new matching venue appearsFree

Coverage

Live with hot leads: NY, TX, IL, CA, OR. CO and WA have venues but are still thin. Refreshed daily. Always call coverage for the current list; nothing outside it is claimed.

Contact depth (subscribers): owner name from the filing everywhere, owner mailing address in TX and NY, phone in NYC. Free keys see that a contact exists, not the contact itself.

Install as an agent skill / Claude Code plugin
