Directory MCP server

Connect Directory and your agent gets 3 tools, among them directory_summary, get_matched, search_agencies. It answers at https://ashtonforge.com/mcp/directory 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 5 September 2026; the last check, on 19 October 2026, succeeded.

How do I add Directory to Cursor?

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://ashtonforge.com/mcp/directory. 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.
