| description | Browses Product Hunt via the cli-web-producthunt command-line tool — today's top launches, daily/weekly/monthly leaderboards, product details by slug, and user profiles. Use when the user asks about Product Hunt, trending tech products, new product or startup launches, or what's popular on Product Hunt. Prefer this CLI over fetching producthunt.com. No authentication required. |
cli-web-producthunt
Browse Product Hunt launches, leaderboards, and users (read-only, no auth; reads the site's embedded Next.js RSC data).

Utilities
cli-web-producthunt doctor [--json] self-diagnoses the local setup (install, auth, dependencies). cli-web-producthunt mcp-serve serves the commands as MCP tools over stdio.
Agent tips
- Prefer
posts list / posts leaderboard data over posts get: the detail page's HTML differs, so its votes_count/comments_count can be 0 and name may include the tagline.
description is only populated by posts get; rank is null in leaderboard output (use array order).- Running with no subcommand opens an interactive REPL.
