What Tarocchi is for

A hand-curated Tarot-card trick-taking card game reference — French Tarot, Tarock, Tarocchi, Troccas.

What it does

Tarocchi is a fully local, hand-curated rules reference for the Tarot-card trick-taking card game family, covering French Tarot, Austrian Tarock (Königrufen), Italian Tarocchi (Tarocchino Bolognese) and Swiss Troccas. game_rules gives one variant's full rules overview: players, deck summary, setup and deal, bidding overview, trump overview, scoring overview, special cards, beginner tips and a history note. term_glossary defines 40 cross-variant and variant-specific terms (Excuse, Sküs, Matto, bout/oudler, Pagat, chien, poignée, chelem, Königrufen, Papi/Mori, ...), or lists every term with no argument. bidding_system gives one variant's bidding/contract structure. trump_hierarchy gives one variant's trump ranking and special trump cards. scoring_summary gives one variant's point values, targets and bonuses. variant_comparison lines up two named variants side by side. deck_composition gives one variant's full deck makeup. beginner_tips gives a curated shortlist for one variant, or general cross-variant tips with no argument. variant_list lists all four variants with a one-line summary each. This server covers the point-trick CARD GAME only — bidding, trumps, a Fool/Excuse card, scoring by points in tricks — and explicitly does not cover tarot-card divination, fortune-telling, card meanings, readings, or spreads. Keyless; fully local; zero upstream calls; nothing stored.

What it is not

Not an official product of, or affiliated with, any brand, league, publisher, or organization it may factually mention. Tarocchi is a hand-curated reference and design tool, not a substitute for an official rulebook, certified instruction, or professional advice. Fully local, zero upstream calls, nothing stored.

Tools

Rules & Lookup

game_rules — Full rules overview for one Tarot-card trick-taking variant: players, deck summary, setup and deal, bidding overview, trump overview, scoring overview, special cards, beginner tips and a history note. Use for "how do you play French Tarot", "explain the rules of Konigrufen". Args: variant.

variant_list — Every Tarot-card game variant covered by this reference, with region, player count and a one-line summary each. Use for "what Tarot card game variants do you cover", "list the tarot trick-taking games".

deck_composition — One variant's full deck makeup: total card count, suits, ranks and face cards, trump count and range, and any special extra card (Excuse/Skus/Matto). Use for "what's in a French Tarot deck", "how many cards are in a Tarocchino Bolognese deck". Args: variant.

Mechanics

bidding_system — The bidding/contract structure for one variant: named contracts (or fixed-partnership shape where a variant has no competitive auction), what each contract requires, and how they compare in risk/reward. Use for "what are the French Tarot bid levels", "does Tarocchino Bolognese have bidding". Args: variant.

trump_hierarchy — One variant's trump ranking: how many trumps, the ranking ladder, the top and bottom trump, and any special trump/Fool-type cards (the Excuse, Skus, Matto) and their role. Use for "what's the highest trump in French Tarot", "what is the Skus". Args: variant.

scoring_summary — One variant's scoring: card point values, the taker's/declarer's target (and how it shifts with bouts or Honours held, where documented), contract multipliers, and named bonuses (petit au bout, poignee, chelem, Pagat Ultimo, ...). Use for "how many points do you need to win French Tarot", "what's petit au bout worth". Args: variant.

Learn & Compare

variant_comparison — Side-by-side comparison of two named variants: deck size, trump count, partnership style, bidding style and scoring style. Use for "compare French Tarot and Konigrufen", "how is Tarocchino different from French Tarot". Args: a, b.

beginner_tips — A curated shortlist of tips for a new player of one variant, or general tips that apply across the whole Tarot-card game family when called with no variant. Use for "tips for a beginner playing French Tarot", "how do I get started with this whole card game family". Args: variant.

term_glossary — Defines terms used across the Tarot-card game family and its four variants — Excuse, Skus, Matto, bout/oudler, Pagat, Mond, chien, talon, poignee, chelem, Konigrufen, Rufkonig, Bettel, Papi/Mori, Tarocchino, and general trick-taking vocabulary. Use for "what does 'oudler' mean", "what's a poignee". Args: term.

Conventions

• Read-only. Every tool reads public data or computes; nothing is written anywhere and nothing about the user is stored.
• Result envelope. ok: true with data, or ok: false with a structured error (bad_input, not_found, upstream_error). degraded lists optional sources that were unreachable.
• Rate limits. Free tier 60 tool calls/minute and 300/day per user (keyed on the user identifier supplied by the host agent, else client IP); Pro keys raise this. Over-limit calls return HTTP 429 with Retry-After. initialize and tools/list are never counted.

Tarocchi — Privacy Policy

Effective 25 September 2026. Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us"), Menlo Park, California.

What Tarocchi is. Tarocchi is a connector (an MCP server and REST API) that AI assistants and personal agents call on your behalf for a hand-curated Tarot-card trick-taking card game reference — French Tarot, Tarock, Tarocchi, Troccas. You interact with your assistant; the assistant sends us only the arguments needed for that one lookup.

What we receive. The arguments of each tool call, the technical headers needed to serve the request (an IP address or a client identifier supplied by the assistant, and a Pro API key if you have one), and standard server logs.

Everything is answered from a bundled, hand-curated reference file and nothing is stored. No request is forwarded to any third party — there is no upstream call at all, live or otherwise — and no query is logged in request bodies, recorded, or used to train anything.

What we do not receive or store. We do not receive your conversation with the assistant or your name, and we do not build a profile from your queries: each request is answered independently and nothing carries over between requests. Rate-limit counters (a client identifier and timestamps) are held in memory for at most 24 hours. Hosting-provider access logs, which contain IP addresses and request paths but not request bodies, are retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Sub-processors. None — the entire dataset is bundled with the server and answered locally. Hosting: Vercel (United States regions).

Legal bases and your rights. Our processing is necessary to provide the service you request through your assistant. Because we store no personal data beyond short-lived logs, requests to access, correct or delete personal data are usually satisfied automatically; you can still contact agent@connectorbay.com and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell or share personal information and do not use your data to train models.

Children. Tarocchi is a general-audience service operated by the adult using the assistant.

Changes. We will post changes here with a new effective date.
