Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 193 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name tangerine-index.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 5 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 193 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 193 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    17 of 17 parameters have a description (100%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Pass
    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

    Updated 2026-11-10T05:47:36.164448Z, within 180 days.

  • Not measured

Capabilities

Tools 5

get_product

Get one product by id: full description, links, GitHub repository, stars, stars gained in the last 7 and 30 days and the last push, whether its link responded when last checked, ways to install or connect (MCP server, Homebrew, npm, PyPI, crates.io) when known, and every reaction with its source, title, number, date, and original discussion URL.

Discovered
new_products

List products recently added to Tangerine Index that are new: their first reaction (a Hacker News, Product Hunt or GeekNews post, or the GitHub repository's creation) came at most 7 days before they were added. Newest first by added_at. Use it to see what launched recently, optionally for a kind of tool (pass need) or form (e.g. MCP Server). To poll for new products, pass the newest added_at you have seen as since. Data refreshes once a day (as_of); products added before Nov 10, 2026 have no added_at and are not listed.

Discovered
search_products

Find existing products launched since ChatGPT's release (Nov 30, 2022) that already do what you need — check here before building something new. Describe the job in short plain English, e.g. "extract tables from PDF to CSV" or "self-hosted dashboard for coding agents"; English works much better than other languages. Results are ranked by relevance (keyword + semantic). Each result has a one-line description, links, forms, an open-source flag, GitHub stars with recent gains, community reactions labeled by source (e.g. HN 112 pts), and ways to install or connect when known (MCP server, Homebrew, npm, PyPI, crates.io). Numbers are shown as each source reports them and are never combined; Tangerine Index does not rate products. Use get_product for the full description and every reaction.

Discovered
similar_products

List up to 5 products whose descriptions are closest to the given product's description. Similarity is by description embedding only — not quality, popularity, or recency.

Discovered
trending_products

List the products that drew the most community reaction recently — use it to see what is trending among products launched since ChatGPT's release, or what is trending for a kind of tool (pass need). Ranked by a reaction index computed only from the sources' own numbers: for each source, a product's best number in the period (e.g. HN points, Product Hunt votes) is divided by that source's 10th best in the same period; a GitHub repository counts by the stars it gained beyond its own pace over the 28 days before, divided the same way; the values are added across sources, so 1 per source means a reaction as large as that source's 10th place. Tangerine Index does not rate products. period_days is 3, 7 (default), or 30; data refreshes once a day (as_of). Each result shows the reactions that counted, with each source's raw number.
