Directory MCP server

Directory is an MCP server with 3 tools an agent can call, among them ask_business, find_and_ask, search_businesses. It answers at https://api.anots.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 10 of 10 times since 4 September 2026; the last check, on 17 October 2026, succeeded.

Discover and query every business on ANOTS — search, ask, or find-and-ask over MCP.

Description as the publisher wrote it.

The 3 tools Directory offers

ToolWhat it does
ask_businessAsk a specific business's ANOTS agent a question, by slug. The agent answers from that business's own knowledge base and tools (live data, not scraped HTML). Get the slug from search_businesses.
Inputs: slug, question
find_and_askDiscover the most relevant ANOTS businesses for a need AND ask each one in a single step, returning their answers side by side. The fastest way to answer a purchase-intent or research question across the directory.
Inputs: query, limit
search_businessesSearch the ANOTS directory for businesses whose AI agent can answer a question or need. Returns matching businesses with their slug, name, what they do, and agent-card URL. Use this first to discover which agents to ask.
Inputs: query, limit

Questions about Directory

Is there an official Directory MCP server?

Yes. It is published by anots.com and served from api.anots.com, the vendor's own domain: https://api.anots.com/mcp.

3, as returned by the server's own tools/list on 10 September 2026: ask_business, find_and_ask, search_businesses.

How do I add Directory to Cursor?

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://api.anots.com/mcp. The exact JSON is above, with the same setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, Gemini CLI and the rest.

Does Directory need an API key?

It listed its tools to an anonymous client, so reading the tool list needs no key. Individual tools can still ask for credentials in their own inputs.
