MCP
AI agents directory MCP server
A public Streamable HTTP endpoint so Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code, and other MCP clients can search this independent directory of AI agents and tools, then link back to the page they used.
Updated
Endpoint https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp. Server version 1.0.0. No authentication.
What is the AI agents directory MCP server?
A public, read-only Model Context Protocol server at https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp that lets assistants search and read this directory, its comparison tables, and its research notes. It uses Streamable HTTP, the current MCP transport, so a client only needs that URL. The protocol revision named in this site's glossary, read November 8, 2026, is 2026-07-28; the handler also answers 2025-era Streamable HTTP clients.
How do I connect Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT?
Paste https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp into the client as a Streamable HTTP MCP server. Cursor and VS Code take a JSON snippet. Claude Code takes one CLI command. ChatGPT and Claude Desktop add a custom connector by URL. Older stdio-only apps can wrap the same URL with mcp-remote.
Cursor — ~/.cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"ai-agents-info": {
"url": "https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}VS Code — .vscode/mcp.json
{
"servers": {
"ai-agents-info": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http ai-agents-info https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp
Claude Desktop — claude_desktop_config.json via mcp-remote
{
"mcpServers": {
"ai-agents-info": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp"]
}
}
}Claude Desktop and claude.ai
In Claude Desktop or claude.ai, open Customize, then Connectors, then add a custom connector. Use the name AI Agents Info and the URL https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp. If your build only launches local stdio servers, use the mcp-remote snippet above and restart Claude Desktop.
ChatGPT
In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors or Apps, then add a custom MCP server. Choose Streamable HTTP and paste https://www.aiagentsinfo.com/api/mcp. Leave authentication empty. Workspace policy decides whether custom connectors are allowed.
Which MCP tools does this server expose?
Seven read-only tools over the published directory, comparison tables, and research notes. Every result includes a canonical aiagentsinfo.com URL.
search_agents
Search the AI Agents Info directory of AI agents and tools. Optional category slug. Each hit includes the canonical listing URL.
get_agent
Read one directory listing by slug, including pricing, features, related listings, and the canonical URL.
list_categories
List directory categories that currently have listings, with counts and category page URLs.
compare_agents
Place two to five directory listings side by side from fields already on the site. This is not a scored ranking.
search_research
Search original research notes and paper breakdowns on AI Agents Info. Each hit includes the canonical research URL.
list_free_tools
List directory listings whose pricing includes free or open source, plus the free tools hosted on this site. Each item includes its canonical URL.
list_comparisons
List the sourced comparison tables on AI Agents Info, such as harnesses, coding agents, and shopping agents.
Is the AI agents directory MCP server free to use?
Yes. There is no account and no API key. Requests are rate-limited so a single network cannot crowd out everyone else. The catalog is cached for a few minutes on the server, because the listings only change when the site is deployed.
Where do the answers come from?
From the same files that render the directory, the comparison tables, and the research notes. The server will not invent a product, a price, or a score. If a listing is missing, it is missing. The longer plain-text dump of the site is still /llms.txt.
What prompts work well?
Ask for a search, a comparison, or a citation, and tell the assistant to use the AI Agents Info MCP server. These four hold up:
Example prompt
Search the AI Agents Info directory for free open-source coding agents and link the listings.
Example prompt
Compare Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor using the AI Agents Info MCP server. Do not invent a ranking.
Example prompt
What does AI Agents Info research say about Terminal-Bench? Cite the research URL.
Example prompt
List the directory categories on aiagentsinfo.com and how many listings each has.
How is this listed in MCP registries?
The machine-readable manifest is /.well-known/mcp/server.json, also kept as server.json in the public GitHub repository. A Smithery-style server card is /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json. Publishing to the official MCP Registry still needs a one-time domain proof for the com.aiagentsinfo namespace, then mcp-publisher publish. Other directories (Smithery, Glama, PulseMCP, mcp.so) are submitted from their own forms. Those steps are manual.
