Updated automatically as new videos are published.\n\nBuilt so you can ask your AI \"what tool should I use for X?\" and get an answer grounded in real reviews instead of training data.\n\n## Install\n\nAdd to your MCP config (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"ai-tools\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"-y\", \"@caseybuilds/ai-tools-mcp\"]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nNo API keys, no setup.\n\n## What it does\n\nThe server exposes one tool: `search_tools`. When called, it returns every card in the database. Your AI reads them all and picks what's relevant to your question.\n\nWhy return everything instead of filtering? Because the AI is better at matching your intent to the right tool than any keyword search would be. A query about \"making 3D product mockups\" should surface a tool whose card says \"generate photorealistic scene compositions,\" and keyword matching would miss that.\n\nThe full set fits comfortably in any modern LLM's context. If you want to keep your main conversation's context clean, have your AI call this tool from a sub-agent.\n\n## What's in each card\n\n- **Tool name** and one-line description\n- **URL**, **pricing** (free / freemium / paid / open-source), **platform** (web / local / API / mobile / etc.)\n- **Local-friendly**: whether it runs on consumer hardware\n- **What it does**: 2-3 sentence summary\n- **When to use it**: practical situations where this is the right pick\n- **Sources**: links to the original YouTube reviews with dates and depth (deep-dive vs. mention)\n\n## Where the data comes from\n\nAll cards are extracted from video transcripts on [The AI Search](https://www.youtube.com/@theAIsearch), a YouTube channel that reviews AI tools 2-3 times per week. The database is updated automatically when new videos are published. Each card links back to its source video(s).\n\n## For developers\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/Minecraft9101010/ai-tools-mcp.git\ncd ai-tools-mcp\nnpm install\nnpm run dev\n```\n\nThe server fetches cards from GitHub first (so users always get the latest). If that fails (offline, rate-limited), it falls back to the local `cards/` directory. Cards are cached in memory for one hour.\n\n## License\n\n[MIT](LICENSE)\n","readmeFilename":"README.md","homepage":"https://github.com/Minecraft9101010/ai-tools-mcp#readme","repository":{"type":"git","url":"git+https://github.com/Minecraft9101010/ai-tools-mcp.git"},"author":{"name":"Casey Pelay"},"bugs":{"url":"https://github.com/Minecraft9101010/ai-tools-mcp/issues"}}
