Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Mind the Product every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Mind the Product — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for Mind the Product?

The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.

Is Mind the Product 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 324 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Mind the Product?

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. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.

How do you sign in to Mind the Product?

No API key is involved. Mind the Product answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.

How fast is Mind the Product?

It answers our handshake in 324 ms on average, which is faster than 43% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Mind the Product open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 3 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mindtheproduct.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
