  • No auth, no API key, no sign-up
  • Fair-use limit: 30 tool calls per minute per IP (protocol messages like initialize and tools/list are free)
  • Data: ~450,000 repositories and 435 curated topics, refreshed daily from the public GitHub API

What you can ask

  • "Find self-hosted alternatives to Notion with more than 5k stars"

Rate limits

Each tool call counts against a 30 requests/minute budget per IP, shared with the SrcLog REST API. Over the limit, the tool returns an error result (Rate limit: 30 req/min, retry in N s) instead of dropping the connection, so assistants can wait and retry.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
