Thank you!

schreibertucon Show HN: Need is a CLI tool discovery as an MCP server

I built this because every time I ask Claude or Cursor to use a CLI tool, it either hallucinates a package name or ecommends something outdated.

Need is an MCP server that gives AI agents a verified index of 10,000+ CLI tools with semantic search. The agent searches,installs, uses the tool, then reports back whether it worked so rankings improve with every use.

Try it: npx @agentneeds/need "compress png images"

Install globally with npm install -g @agentneeds/need and it auto-configures for Claude Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop. The feedback loop is the key part when an agent reports that a tool worked (or didn't), future searches rank better tools higher. It's like PageRank but for CLI tools, powered by real agent usage.

schreibertucon Show HN: Mimir – Cursor for Product Managers

Thanks!! Good question...and yea the way I have it set up right now (for my personal workflow) is that Mimir sends the specs to Github as an Issue, and then Claude Code picks it up and starts building. But any agent could do that, i think.

I honestly haven't used ChatPRD. But I think the biggest advantaged are the simplicity and core flow of the synthesis model I built! I built it for myself as a PM, so it doesn't have a bunch of the feature cruft.
