No commands to learn — your client picks the right tool.
Tools
Tool | What it does |
| Hybrid semantic + keyword search across 1,500+ articles, talks and guides |
| Full text of one article, with authors, date and categories |
| Recently published articles, optionally filtered by topic |
| Vector-similarity reading lists — what to read next |
| MTP conferences, workshops and ProductTank meetups worldwide |
| Live listings from the Mind the Product job board |
All six are read-only and annotated as such.
Resources
Articles are exposed as MCP resources, so full text is one resources/read away —
no second tool call, no guessing slugs.
mtp://article/{slug}Every search result carries a resource_link pointing at one of these. The four content
tools also return structuredContent matching their outputSchema, so you can parse
results rather than scraping markdown.
Signing in
Your client handles it. The first time you use the MCP it'll open a browser and ask you to sign in with your Mind the Product account — free to create — and that's it.
There's no API key to manage. Access is read-only and tied to you personally, so nothing you connect can post, comment, or change anything in your account.
Things to build with it
Copy-paste projects. No code, no setup — connect the MCP, paste the prompt, go.
What it is | |
A quiz game where every answer cites a real article | |
Spot the invented product claim | |
Choose-your-own-adventure for new product leaders | |
Paste your roadmap, get it pulled apart with receipts | |
Has your AI build you a real flashcards app | |
Finds the product community near you |
Made something? Open a PR and add it — a folder, a README, the prompt you used. We'd like this to be where people find out what's possible.
