    Paste this line into the Terminal and press Return. It installs Trip Agent and makes your travel folder, trip-agent, in your home folder. When it finishes, it says how to start.

    curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Kinetik-Infotech/trip-agent-marketplace/main/install/install.sh | bash

    Your Mac may ask to install Apple's command line developer tools. Click Install, wait for it to finish, then paste the line again. It carries on where it stopped.

    Connect your travel tools

    Trip Agent searches with the travel connectors in your own Claude account. In the Claude app, open Settings, then Connectors, and add these:

    • Tripadvisor, for reviews, rankings and photos
    • Kiwi.com, for flights
    • Brek, for hotel prices on your dates

    Civitatis and Veltra add tours and activities, and AccuWeather adds the weather. They are optional.

    Plan your first trip

    In the Code tab, start a new session, and choose the trip-agent folder in your home folder as its folder. Your travel agent is waiting there, and keeps your profile and trips in it.

    Type Plan me a trip. It starts by showing you pairs of hotel photos to learn your preferences.

    As you plan, your travel agent keeps three pages for you: your profile, your hotel options and your itinerary. Find them under Artifacts in the Claude app, or at claude.ai/code/artifacts. Their names start with Trip Agent.
