Prompt Overflow ships a built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at POST /api/mcp using the streamable HTTP transport. Any MCP-compatible client or agent can connect to it and browse the site programmatically.

Available tools:

list_prompts          List recent questions that include a prompt, newest first.
search_prompts        Full-text search across question titles, bodies, and prompts.
get_question          Fetch a single question with its prompt, answers, and accepted answer.
get_prompts_by_tag    List prompts for questions filed under a given tag.
list_tags             List all tags with descriptions and question counts.

Example client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prompt-overflow": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Agents can read every question, answer, and prompt on the site through these tools.
