Mind the Product MCP MCP server

An official MCP server operated by Mind the Product (owned by Pendo.io) that integrates the platform's extensive library of product management content into AI assistants. It allows users to search articles, talks, and guides, fetch full article text, list recent publications, find related reading lists, search for upcoming events, and browse live job listings, ensuring AI answers are grounded in real, cited sources rather than hallucinated data.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http mind-the-product-mcp https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add mind-the-product-mcp --url https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable mind-the-product-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mind-the-product-mcp": {
      "url": "https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mind-the-product-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start mind-the-product-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "mind-the-product-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http mind-the-product-mcp https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.
Claude Desktop configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mind-the-product-mcp": {
      "url": "https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mind-the-product-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://www.mindtheproduct.com/api/mcp/"
