## What is this?

An [MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that gives AI coding agents real-time access to the public-apis dataset. Instead of copy-pasting API documentation, your agent can search, probe, and generate working code — all in one conversation.

```
You:   "Find me a free weather API with no auth that supports HTTPS"
Agent: [calls search_apis] → returns top matches with auth/HTTPS/CORS details

You:   "Test the first one — show me what the response looks like"
Agent: [calls probe_api] → live GET request, returns status + response shape

You:   "Generate an axios snippet for it"
Agent: [calls generate_snippet] → ready-to-paste curl, fetch, and axios code
```

## Installation

Pick the config for your client and paste it in. No build step required — `npx` handles everything.
