Leetcode MCP Server Tools (9)

get_daily_challenge

Retrieves today's Daily Challenge problem with full description (read-only, no auth). Returns problem details for the current date as JSON. Use get_problem when you know a specific titleSlug; use search_problems to discover problems by filters.

get_problem

Retrieves a single LeetCode problem by titleSlug (read-only, no auth). Returns description, examples, constraints, and metadata as JSON. Use search_problems to find problems by keyword/tag/difficulty; use get_daily_challenge for today's featured problem.

search_problems

Searches LeetCode problems by category, tags, difficulty, and keywords (read-only, no auth). Supports pagination via limit/offset. Returns matching problem list as JSON. Use get_problem when you already know the titleSlug; use this to browse or discover problems.

get_user_profile

Retrieves any user's public profile by username (read-only, no auth). Returns ranking, avatar, bio, submission stats, and platform-specific progress. Use this to look up other users or public stats. Use get_user_status (requires auth) instead to verify the current session user's login state—not for looking up arbitrary users.
