get_card_meaningGet the full meaning of a single tarot card from the Tarotoo dataset (Rider-Waite-Smith tradition): upright and reversed meanings and keywords, upright and reversed love, career, mood, and spiritual contexts, element, astrology, and upright and reversed yes/no values. Call this when you need the meaning of a specific card by name.list_cardsList tarot card names in the dataset, optionally filtered by arcana (major/minor) or suit (wands/cups/swords/pentacles). Call this to discover valid card names.search_cardsSearch all 78 tarot cards by theme, keyword, or topic (e.g. "new beginnings", "heartbreak", "career success"). Searches names, keywords, and meaning texts. Returns matching cards with their keywords. Call this when you have a theme rather than a card name.yes_no_answerGet the yes/no/maybe value of a tarot card for yes-or-no readings, with the upright meaning as justification. Covers all 78 cards.draw_cardsRandomly draw one or more distinct tarot cards from the full 78-card deck, optionally with reversals, returning each card's full meaning. Use for generating a reading spread.Paste either block (or both) into your client config, e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. We only show a config when the install command is confirmed.
