### Description (declared)

Read-only MCP server from BETAP (https://betap.world), a live map of real local businesses that started in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico. 
 
Tools: 
- buscar_negocios: search businesses with a public BETAP profile by text, city or distance. The text also matches dishes and products on their public menu ("tacos" finds places that sell tacos), returned with price in en_menu. Each result links to its public page with menu, promotions and WhatsApp. 
- buscar_lugares: verified museums, libraries and cultural projects in Mexico, the US and Canada, each with a citable source. 
- obtener_lugar: one place by id, with its sources. 
 
Endpoint: https://api.betap.world/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON responses, no session, no key). Protocol 2025-11-25, 2025-06-18, 2025-03-26 and 2024-11-05. Docs for agents: https://betap.world/llms-en.txt. Skill: https://betap.world/skills/betap/SKILL.md 
 
Coverage today: mainly Los Altos de Jalisco (San Miguel el Alto, Tepatitlan and nearby), Mexico. If nothing is found, the server says so; it never invents a business. Requests are logged by client name, tool and search terms only (no IPs, no account data).
