directory — Claude Code MCP server: launch platform directory
A hosted MCP server holding a directory of product launch platforms: who accepts you, what rules you out, which steps a submission takes.
claude mcp add --transport http directory https://submitmap.com/api/mcpWhat directory does
The server serves typed records instead of bare links. Each platform entry covers eligibility, disqualifiers, the submission steps, how long approval takes and whether the link is dofollow. Records were walked by hand.
Three tools need no account. search_platforms queries the directory and filters by category, pricing, link type or approval speed. get_platform returns one platform in full. qualify_project takes a product description and sorts platforms into those you qualify for now, those within reach once something is supplied, and those out of reach. An account token unlocks whoami, project storage, submission_playbook, plan_submissions and submission logging.
Nothing runs locally — the endpoint is https://submitmap.com/api/mcp over streamable HTTP, protocol version 2025-06-18. Account tools read Authorization: Bearer smap_..., and OAuth is advertised as well. Tokens come from https://submitmap.com/app/tokens. Submission automation stays locked until that token is in place.
What it helps with
- find platforms that accept a product today
- list what a specific platform still needs before you can submit
- work out the order to send submissions in
- log what was sent and track each submission's status
- filter directories by link type and approval speed
Example prompts for the agent
- Check the directory for platforms my product qualifies for and what's missing elsewhere
- Pull the full record for this platform and list the submission steps
- Plan the submission run for my project and record the first one

What does directory do?
It gives the agent a directory of launch platforms: filtered search, a full record per platform, and a check of whether a product meets each one's conditions.
Do I need an account to use it?
Search, platform records and project qualification work without one. The submission tools expect an account token sent as Authorization: Bearer smap_....
