Show HN: I made awesome lists available through CLI+Skills and MCP
The author created a tool that makes awesome lists accessible via CLI commands, Skills, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing users to browse curated resources directly from the terminal.
Background
- "awesome lists" are curated collections of resources on GitHub (e.g., awesome-python, awesome-selfhosted) maintained by the community, originally popularized by the "awesome" list project.
- CLI (command-line interface) refers to interacting with software via typed commands in a terminal, common among developers.
- MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an emerging open protocol that lets large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT connect to external tools and data sources — essentially a way to give an AI assistant access to structured context.
- This project packages awesome lists so you can query them from your terminal or feed them as context to an AI assistant, making it easier to find curated tools/libraries without browsing GitHub manually.
