io.github.f/prompts.chat-mcp is a MCP server that searches and retrieves AI prompts from prompts.chat inside your agent.
About
prompts.chat MCP lets developers query a social catalog of AI prompts from inside their coding agent instead of context-switching to the web app. Install @fkadev/prompts.chat-mcp, connect via stdio, and retrieve prompts that match filters you pass through PROMPTS_QUERY for users, categories, or tags. Add PROMPTS_API_KEY when you want write access to save prompts back to the community. It suits developers shipping features with Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex who reuse battle-tested prompt patterns for support bots, content tools, or internal agents. It does not replace your own SKILL.md workflows or local prompt files—it is a live directory integration. Version 1.0.9 is published with documented optional and filter environment variables.
- Search and retrieve prompts from the prompts.chat social platform
- Optional PROMPTS_API_KEY enables authenticated save_prompt tooling
- PROMPTS_QUERY filter string for users, categories, and tags
- npm package @fkadev/prompts.chat-mcp v1.0.9 over stdio
