MCP server

Product Debuts's remote MCP server lets AI assistants use every operation of the API as tools.

URL: https://productdebuts.com/mcp
Transport: Streamable HTTP (POST, JSON responses), stateless
Protocol: 2026-07-28, plus initialize-based 2025-03-26 to 2025-11-25
Sign-in: OAuth 2.1 per the MCP authorization spec (details), or an API key as a Bearer token

How sign-in works

Read tools work without signing in. When a tool needs your account, the server answers 401 with a WWW-Authenticate header pointing to /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp and the scopes needed. Your client then opens a browser, you sign in on Product Debuts and choose Allow access, and the tool call is retried. If a token lacks a scope, the answer is 403 with error="insufficient_scope".

Prompts

launch_my_product: Launch my product: submit it by URL, review the AI draft, then publish (free or paid) (arguments: url)
find_alternatives: Find alternatives to a product and compare them (arguments: product)
relaunch_my_listing: Relaunch one of my listings in a new launch week (arguments: listing)

Resources

JSON resources for the site, the OpenAPI document, products and categories, and templates for https://productdebuts.com/api/v1/listings/{slug}, categories, founders and blog posts.

Tools

Every tool has a JSON Schema for its input and hints: read-only, destructive, idempotent, open world. Errors come back as tool results with isError and a structured error object (codes).
