For agents

Query the directory from your agent

Connect the listai.tools MCP server once and an agent can search the directory, see what is trending, compare listings and submit a tool — from the chat, without a browser. Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and ChatGPT.

  1. 1. Connect once

    Add the server to your client

    Claude Code
    claude mcp add --transport http listaitools https://listai.tools/api/mcp
  2. 2. Then ask your agent

    Ask it anything

    Prompt
    Which AI video tools are trending on listai.tools this week, and how do the top two compare on pricing?

Reading needs no API key and no account: add the server, start asking. Only the submit tool prompts for a browser approval, and whatever it files waits in the same review queue as the web form.

What the server exposes

Rankings come from community engagement only. Paid listings carry a `featured` flag so an agent can say so, and nothing else about the order is bought.
