Available tools 7

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

categories
list_categories
List Shipstry's product categories with the number of approved products in each. Call this first when you need a valid category slug for the other tools.
category
get_category_landscape
Benchmark a category over a window of ship weeks: how many products launched, the vote distribution (mean, p50, p75, p90, max), the top launches, how many medals were awarded, and the tags that appear most. Use this to judge how crowded a space is and what a winning launch looks like there.
launch
get_launch
Fetch one approved launch with its description, tags, awards, and maker name. Identify it by Shipstry product id, product slug, its Shipstry URL, or its own website URL.
launches
search_launches
Search approved Shipstry launches by keyword, category, or tag. Keyword matching covers product name and tagline. Returns compact records with votes, ship week, awards, and the canonical Shipstry URL.
ship
list_ship_week
List the products that launched in one ship week (Monday-Sunday UTC, keyed YYYYMMDD). Defaults to the current week. During Fog Mode vote counts for the current week are hidden and the order is random.
url
check_url
Check whether a website URL is already listed on Shipstry, using the same normalization as submission duplicate detection. Only approved listings are visible.
winners
get_winners
Weekly or monthly medal winners (gold, silver, bronze). Returns the most recent periods by default, or one period when `period` is given. Use this to see what actually won, not just what launched.

Shipstry Launch Data — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Shipstry Launch Data do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_url, get_category_landscape, get_launch, get_winners, list_categories, list_ship_week 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 Shipstry Launch Data working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 42 of 42 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 285 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Shipstry Launch Data?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Shipstry Launch Data need an API key?
No. Shipstry Launch Data 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 Shipstry Launch Data?
It answers our handshake in 285 ms on average, which is faster than 46% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
