Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Market & competitive intelligence for Claude & AI assistants: trends, alerts, keywords & more.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: x-api-key

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http intelcue https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse --header 'x-api-key: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "intelcue": {
      "url": "https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "intelcue": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Common questions

Is Intelcue MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: x-api-key

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Symantec Cloud DLP AIops

IntelCue MCP Server

Live market & competitor intelligence inside Claude and any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

IntelCue is an AI-first competitive and market intelligence platform. It continuously monitors your sources — newsletters, blogs, news, YouTube, websites, Google Ads, patents, SEC filings, Certificate Transparency (new subdomains), and more — then analyzes everything for trending topics, competitive moves, and keywords. This repository documents the IntelCue MCP server, which exposes that intelligence to AI assistants via the Model Context Protocol.

Ask your AI assistant about your market and competitors, and it pulls from your live,

continuously-updated IntelCue data automatically. Learn more at

[www.intelcue.ai](https://www.intelcue.ai).

What is the IntelCue MCP server?

A hosted, remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP) that gives AI assistants read-only access to your IntelCue workspace. It scopes every response to your authenticated workspace, so your data stays private to you.

  • Endpoint: https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP (official MCP SDK)
  • Auth: your IntelCue API key (ic_sk_…) — via OAuth, Authorization: Bearer, or the x-api-key header

Connect

Option 1 — Smithery (easiest)

Install from the Smithery listing and paste your IntelCue API key when prompted.

Option 2 — Claude Desktop
{

"mcpServers": { "intelcue": { "type": "url", "url": "https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse", "name": "IntelCue", "authorization": "Bearer ic_sk_your_api_key_here" } } }

Option 3 — Any MCP client (header auth)

Send your key in the x-api-key header to https://api.intelcue.ai/v1/mcp/sse.

Get your API key on the Connect page in your IntelCue dashboard.

Tools

All tools are read-only and automatically scoped to your workspace.

ToolWhat it returns
get_trending_topicsTrending topics with momentum scores, change deltas, and examples
get_competitive_insightsCompetitive alerts ranked by severity

get_newsletter_contentRecent newsletter content from subscribed sources
get_blog_updatesLatest posts from monitored blogs
get_patent_filingsRecent patent filings and grants from monitored companies
get_front_page_briefThe latest AI-generated weekly Front Page brief for your workspace

  • "Any high-severity competitive moves in the last 7 days?"
  • "Which keywords are surging right now, with hashtags?"
  • "Summarize the latest newsletters and blog posts from my competitors."
  • "Have any tracked companies filed patents recently?"
  • "Pull my latest Front Page brief and summarize it."
