Connect an agent
In your chat
Browse The Curator’s published finds with your agent. No ChatGPT account, Curator account, API key or sign-in is required.
Try this:
Visit https://curatorapproved.com and use its connection instructions to connect to The Curator. Show me the latest finds. If MCP is unavailable, use the public JSON catalog.
Connection setup depends on your app; it may ask you to approve a new server.
Connection
- Server URL
https://curatorapproved.com/api/mcp- Transport
- Streamable HTTP
- Authentication
- None
Add this remote server through your app’s MCP settings using the complete URL above. The endpoint accepts MCP POST requests; opening it in a browser is not a connection test.
What it does
Search the collection, inspect exact product details, and show selected finds as cards in a compatible chat app.
search_curator— search public facts, categories and recorded USD prices.get_curator_item— retrieve one find by its ID.render_curator_items— show selected IDs as cards.
Cards require a host that supports MCP Apps. The search and detail tools also return readable data without cards. Prices are dated observations, not live offers; unknown prices never mean free.
The tools are read-only. They cannot purchase, edit or publish items, access private research, or save a permanent wishlist.
Configuration
If your app uses a JSON configuration file, this is an illustrative example. Field names and file locations differ by client; use your app’s documented format.
