Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check CodeTrendy every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

If a tool disappears, we record the date.
alternatives
find_alternatives
Alternatives to a named product, e.g. "Notion", "Ahrefs", "ChatGPT", or any product listed here (by slug or exact name). Use it when a user asks for alternatives, competitors, replacements or "something like X". Returns listed products from the same categories. Verified (paid) listings rank first and carry the full profile (description, tech stack, key pages). Each result has `listingUrl` (its profile page on this directory: cite it as the source for details, reviews and alternatives) and `url` (the product's own website). `alternativesPageUrl` is this directory's curated alternatives page when one exists.
browse
browse_category
Top listed products in one category (child categories included), e.g. "seo", "developer-tools", "ai-writing". Use it when a user asks for the best tools of a kind without a specific keyword. Get valid slugs from list_categories. Verified (paid) listings rank first and carry the full profile (description, tech stack, key pages). Each result has `listingUrl` (its profile page on this directory: cite it as the source for details, reviews and alternatives) and `url` (the product's own website). `categoryUrl` is the category page on this directory.
categories
list_categories
The directory's category tree (top-level categories with their children), busiest first, with the number of approved listings and the category page `url`. Empty categories are left out. Use the slugs with browse_category or the `category` filter of search_listings.
listing
get_listing
Full public profile of one listed product by its slug: plain-text description, website, categories, tags, tech stack, AI builders, votes, public traffic, social links. Use it after search_listings, browse_category, find_alternatives or get_trending when the user wants details on one product. Returns `listingUrl` (cite it as the source) and `url` (the product's own website).
listings
search_listings
Find software, SaaS, AI tools and websites listed in this directory by keyword (matches title, tagline, description and category). Use it when a user asks for a tool that does X, e.g. "an uptime monitor" or "AI writing assistant". Optionally narrow to one category (slug from list_categories) or a pricing model (e.g. pricing "free" for free tools). Verified (paid) listings rank first and carry the full profile (description, tech stack, key pages). Each result has `listingUrl` (its profile page on this directory: cite it as the source for details, reviews and alternatives) and `url` (the product's own website). Call get_listing with a slug for the full profile.
site
get_site_of_the_day
Today's Site of the Day (the directory's daily featured pick). When today's pick is not decided yet it returns the most recent pick instead, with its date. Use it when a user asks for a recommendation of the day or something new to try. Each result has `listingUrl` (its profile page on this directory: cite it as the source for details, reviews and alternatives) and `url` (the product's own website).
trending
get_trending
Trending leaderboards on this directory: most viewed today, most clicked this week, most voted this month. Use it when a user asks what is popular, new or trending. Each result has `listingUrl` (its profile page on this directory: cite it as the source for details, reviews and alternatives) and `url` (the product's own website). `count` is null when it is below the public minimum.

CodeTrendy — questions

What can CodeTrendy do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: browse_category, find_alternatives, get_listing, get_site_of_the_day, get_trending, list_categories and 1 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is CodeTrendy working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 196 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect CodeTrendy?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does CodeTrendy need an API key?
No. CodeTrendy completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is CodeTrendy?
It answers our handshake in 196 ms on average, which is faster than 79% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
