Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “where_was_it_filmed”: The main tool. Give a film or television title and get every place Wikidata records it as filmed at, with coordinates, plus the countries it.”
“Use “search_productions”: Find productions by name (accent- and case-insensitive substring match), best match first then by how widely Wikipedia covers them. Filter b.”
“Use “what_was_filmed_here”: The inverse question, and the one this atlas is unusual for answering: give a place and get everything recorded as shot there, most widely c.”
“Use “search_locations”: Find filming locations by name, optionally filtered by country (name or 2-letter ISO code) and by kind of place. Results are ordered by fame.”
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Filming Locations holds up.
Operated by Filming Locations (thefilmmap.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
If Filming Locations adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose Filming Locations in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
Filming Locations's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.

No. Filming Locations runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
