Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 11, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
searchFind vibe coding / AI tools. Rows: id|name|category|$from/mo|free(1/0). Use fetch(id) for details.
fetchTool profile by id. Default: summary, best_for, price, free, 2 strengths, 2 weaknesses, url. fields: summary description best_for not_for skill coding pricing platforms strengths weaknesses alternatives video compare official all.
recommend_toolsRanked best-fit tools for a goal, with why + caveat. Follows this ask only — saved tags do not change the ranking. On a new user's first call, also returns short onboarding questions (project types, platforms, budget, preferences, tools in use) for you to ask, then call set_prefe
compare_toolsSide-by-side of two tools + comparison page url.
list_alternativesAlternatives to a tool. Rows: id|name|$from/mo|free.
list_scenariosUse-case scenarios (e.g. ai-game-development, code-review) with top tools by community sentiment.
scenarioTools competing in one scenario, ranked by community sentiment, with compact strengths/weak spots here.
list_categoriesCategory and use-case keys with tool ids.
whats_newDaily feed. With key: honors the saved feed mode — by_interests: new items relevant to ANY saved project; all_new: every new item (tagged with a project when one matches). Max 3/day, one line each, never repeats. {new:0} = nothing. Call at most daily. Without key: stateless by si
subscribeCreate an anonymous feed key (no email/account). Save it in long-term memory / project instructions / rules, or connect with /api/mcp?k=KEY.
save_preferencesReplace the keyed-feed interest tags. Send allowed tags only (project types, platforms, budget, preferences) — do not send project names or other free text (they are dropped and never stored). Plus the feed mode ('by_interests' = only matching tools; 'all_new' = every new tool).
log_choiceRecord a tool the user explicitly picked/rejected/tried/starred, or PURCHASED. Call it with action 'purchased' right after the user tells you they bought a paid plan of a listed tool (ask first; never log silently), and again later with action 'feedback' once they have used it fo
set_preferencesStore the user's onboarding answers as non-sensitive tags only: project_types, platforms, budget (free|under_20|any), preferences (nocode|code|open-source|free-tier), and tools_in_use (catalog ids). Unknown values are dropped — never send names, emails, code, project names or fre
check_updatesTools added or updated since this user's last check that match their saved tags. Optional since (YYYY-MM-DD or catalog v). When nothing matches, returns {new:0} — a minimal response when nothing new matches. Tracks last_checked. Max 3 items. Does not change recommend_tools. Optio
feedbackAdjust this user's check_updates ranking for a listed tool. action is one of used, not_useful, not_relevant. Stores only the tool id and that enum. Does not change recommend_tools. Optional key: same feed key passed to set_preferences, to adjust that project's ranking.
forget_meDelete this client's anonymous id, tag profile and last_checked. Feedback is first folded into anonymous aggregate counters (tool_id × used/not_useful/not_relevant, no uid). Those aggregate counts are kept. If you pass a feed key, that keyed feed record is deleted too.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 2 of 3 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.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
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.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.6.1) reached the registry 2 days ago.
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 on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).
