Aback Launch MCP server
A free, read-only remote MCP server. Your AI assistant can read launches, search the site, choose launch platforms and check character limits, with no key.
Endpoint
https://abacklaunch.com/mcp. Streamable HTTP transport, stateless, JSON responses. Server name aback-launch, version 1.0.0. Server card: /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json.
No authentication is needed for public data. To let an assistant read your own listings and stats, connect your account when the client asks (OAuth, read-only, scope account:read); see /auth.md.
Add it to your client
Claude Code
Run in your terminal:
claude mcp add --transport http aback-launch https://abacklaunch.com/mcp

"url": "https://abacklaunch.com/mcp"
}
}
}VS Code
Add to .vscode/mcp.json:
{

Any other client that supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP works the same way: give it the endpoint URL.
Tools
All 13 tools are read-only.
search_aback_launchSearch launched products, guides, categories, tags and pages on Aback Launch.get_top_launchesThe top products launched on Aback Launch this week, this month or of all time, in leaderboard order.get_launchOne product launched on Aback Launch: what it does, who it is for, pricing and platforms, its FAQ and links.find_launch_platformsWhere to launch or list a product: launch platforms, startup and AI directories, review sites and communities, with who each suits and whether its link is dofollow (only when checked on real listings).get_launch_platformOne launch platform or directory in full, with a step-by-step launch guide when there is one.compare_launch_platformsTwo launch platforms side by side, with a written verdict on which to choose when there is one.check_character_limitCount text the way a platform field does (Product Hunt tagline, App Store subtitle, Google Play short description, X post...) and say whether it fits and what gets cut off.define_termA glossary definition (dofollow link, GEO, Show HN, launch week...). Without a slug, lists every term.list_promptsThe prompt library: task briefs a coding agent can follow to fix a site's SEO, AI visibility and launch readiness (pre-launch audit, llms.txt, structured data, sitemaps...). Each has a slug for get_prompt.get_promptOne prompt from the library, rendered for the site's stack: the job, ground rules (read first, plan, wait for approval), limits, steps and what done looks like. Follow it in the user's codebase, starting with the plan.list_free_toolsThe free tools on Aback Launch: SEO and AI search checkers, launch helpers, character limit and image size checkers.askA question in plain words ("free launch platforms with dofollow links", "a prompt to add llms.txt"), answered only from Aback Launch's own pages: listings, the launch platform database, prompts, tools and the glossary. Returns the matching pages with links, and a short cited answer when answers are turned on.get_my_accountThe signed-in member's own listings on Aback Launch: review status, launch date, votes, AI-readiness score and badge, with page views, visitors and clicks for the last 30 days. Needs the member to connect their account (OAuth, scope account:read).
Limits and more
120 requests a minute per IP, shared with the REST API; a connected account gets 600. The same data is in the Aback Launch API, and the versioning policy covers both.
