Launchdistro MCP — AI skill for Claude Code

LaunchDistro MCP

LaunchDistro is a hosted MCP server that plans a product's startup-directory submissions and checks that the links went live. Your own AI app (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, ...) fills each directory's form in **your own browser**; LaunchDistro supplies the verified catalog, the order to submit in, the playbook for each form and the live-link check.

This repository holds documentation and the registry manifest only. The server runs at `https://launchdistro.com/api/mcp`.

What it does

1. Match: which directories take your product (type, region, badge rules, requirements), with the reason for each one that does not.
2. Plan: the order to submit in and a daily pace for your domain's rating, each directory with a reason for its place.
3. Playbook: before each directory, what its form asks, which profile field goes where, the free plan's conditions and where to stop for you.
4. Record: what happened at each directory, on your dashboard.
5. Verify: opens the public listing, checks that it links to your product and reads the link's rel (dofollow or nofollow). A listing counts as live only after this check.
