What2Watch
Connects Claude to live TV schedules and streaming availability across 1000+ channels and major platforms like Netflix, Disney+, and HBO Max. Exposes six tools: get_recommendation for personalized suggestions based on mood and taste, search_content with IMDB filtering, get_schedule for live broadcast lineups, get_trending for what's popular now, get_content_details for full metadata, and get_available_sources to list supported platforms. The server runs at what2watch.live/sse and includes 19 pre-built prompts for common queries. Useful when you need real-time entertainment data instead of stale web search results, or want to build conversational interfaces around "what should I watch tonight" that consider actual availability and user preferences.
