## Documentation & README

# BetaFinds MCP Server

> Publish and update your startup on [BetaFinds](https://betafinds.com) straight from an AI agent.

BetaFinds is a directory for early-stage startups — discover, upvote and discuss
new projects. This is its **official** [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io)
server: point an AI agent (Claude, Cursor, …) at it and it can create your
listing, post changelog updates, and upload release files for you.

- **Endpoint:** `https://betafinds.com/api/mcp` — Streamable HTTP, hosted (nothing to install)
- **Auth:** Bearer token, created at <https://betafinds.com/profile>
- **Full API docs:** <https://betafinds.com/api.txt>
- **Auto-discovery:** <https://betafinds.com/.well-known/mcp.json>

## Why

Filling out submission forms — description, screenshots, links, release files —
is the tedious part of launching. If you already build with an AI agent, you can
skip the form entirely:

> **"Upload my project to betafinds.com"** — then hand the agent your API token.

## Quickstart (Claude Code)

1. Create an API token at <https://betafinds.com/profile> (format: `blt_…`).
2. Add the server:

   ```bash
   claude mcp add betafinds https://betafinds.com/api/mcp \
     --transport http \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer blt_YOUR_TOKEN"
   ```

3. Ask your agent: *"List my startups on BetaFinds"*, or *"Publish an update to
   &lt;startup&gt;: shipped dark mode and fixed the onboarding flow."*

## Claude Desktop

Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json` via [`mcp-remote`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "betafinds": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y", "mcp-remote",
        "https://betafinds.com/api/mcp",
        "--header", "Authorization: Bearer blt_YOUR_TOKEN"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## Tools

| Tool | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `list_my_startups` | List your startups and their slugs (start here) |
| `list_categories` | List available categories (by slug) |
| `create_startup` | Create a new startup listing (submitted for moderation) |
| `update_startup` | Update an existing startup's fields |
| `upload_image` | Upload a logo or screenshot; returns an image URL |
| `publish_update` | Post a "what's new" entry to a startup's changelog feed |
| `create_release` | Create a release (version) for Windows / macOS / Android / Linux |
| `request_asset_upload` | Get a presigned URL to upload a release file |
| `complete_asset_upload` | Finalize a release-file upload |
| `get_releases` | List a startup's public releases |

## Typical flow

Publishing a new build end to end:

```
create_release → request_asset_upload (per file) → PUT the file → complete_asset_upload
```

Subscribers of the startup receive an email digest within ~10 minutes of a
published update.

## Notes

- The server is hosted and stateless (Streamable HTTP) — there is nothing to run locally.
- Listing is free; new startups go through moderation before appearing.
- A Russian-language sibling runs the same protocol at [BetaList.ru](https://betalist.ru)
  (`https://betalist.ru/api/mcp`).
