What is this?

Model Context Protocol

MCP is an open standard that lets AI assistants such as GitHub Copilot, Claude or Cursor call external tools and read external data.

What you get

Instead of searching the web, your assistant asks Tech Hub for fresh, pre-screened content and links you straight to the items it finds.

Free to use

No account, no API key. Requests are limited to 60 per minute per IP address, which is plenty for normal use.

Connect your AI client

Add the server to your client, then restart or refresh its tool list.

VS Code & Visual Studio

Add this to .vscode/mcp.json (VS Code) or .mcp.json (Visual Studio):

{
  "servers": {
    "techhub": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tech.hub.ms/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Run this in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http techhub https://tech.hub.ms/mcp

Cursor & others

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, or give the URL to any client that supports remote MCP servers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "techhub": {
      "url": "https://tech.hub.ms/mcp"
    }
  }
