Return the most relevant matches based on: - Name similarity to the query and the awesome lists section - Category/section relevance of the awesome lists - Number of items in the section - Confidence score Response Format: - Returns matching sections of the awesome lists with metadata - Includes repository information, item counts, and confidence score - Use the githubRepo or listId with relevant sections from results for get_awesome_items For ambiguous queries, multiple relevant sections will be returned for the user to choose from.

What the publisher says

From the Context Awesome repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

context-awesome : awesome references for your agents

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to all the curated awesome lists and their items. It can provide the best resources for your agent from sections of the 8500+ awesome lists on github and more then 1mn+ (growing) awesome row items.

What are Awesome Lists? Awesome lists are community-curated collections of the best tools, libraries, and resources on any topic - from machine learning frameworks to design tools. By adding this MCP server, your AI agents get instant access to these high-quality, vetted resources instead of relying on random web searches.

Perfect for :

  1. Knowledge worker agents to get the most relevant references for their work
  2. The source for the best learning resources
  3. Deep research can quickly gather a lot of high quality resources for any topic.
  4. Search agents

Two Ways to Use Context Awesome

Both modes ship from the same npm package (context-awesome) and hit the same hosted backend.

MCP Tools

Every MCP tool has a 1:1 CLI subcommand — the server and the CLI expose the same operations.

CLI Commands

The CLI (context-awesome) talks directly to the hosted backend. For the MCP server, use the separate context-awesome-mcp binary (see Installation — MCP Clients below).

context-awesome <command> [options]

Commands:
  sections <query...>        Find sections matching a query
  search <query...>          Search items (e.g., context-awesome search "postgres orm")
  items <target>             Fetch items from a list (by owner/repo or listId)

Globals:
  --api-host <url>           Backend API host (env: CONTEXT_AWESOME_API_HOST)
  --api-key <key>            API key (env: CONTEXT_AWESOME_API_KEY)
  --json                     Emit raw JSON (for scripts)

Install the CLI

npm install -g context-awesome
context-awesome --help
context-awesome search "rate limiter"
context-awesome sections "graph databases"

Use the CLI without installing

npx context-awesome search "vector database"

Installation — MCP Clients
