MCP Playground is a Postman-style tool for MCP — inspect servers, execute tools live, test your client, all from the browser.

Four things in one place:

1. Free hosted MCP servers — four public test servers anyone can point their client at: Echo (connectivity), Auth (Bearer token flow), Error (error handling), Complex (multi-tool schemas).No sign-up, just use the URL.

2. Server inspector — paste any remote MCP server URL, see all its tools/resources/prompts, execute them live, inspect the full JSON-RPC log. HTTP, SSE, and WebSocket all supported.

3. Registry — 10,000+ servers indexed by category. Each links to the repo and can be tested in the inspector directly.

4. Recipes + guides — 45 articles and step-by-step workflows for real use cases: GitHub PR reviewer, standup bot, database query assistant, Meta ads automation, and more.

Everything free, no install, no sign-up.

Happy to answer questions on the implementation.

Hey HN,

I'm a software engineer who spent 8 months job hunting last year. Applied to hundreds of jobs. Filled out the same forms over and over. Name, email, resume, cover letter, "how did you hear about us." You know the drill.

I started building ApplyGhost out of frustration. Most auto-apply tools just blast your resume to 500 jobs and hope for the best. That never worked for me. I'd get interviews for roles I didn't even want.

ApplyGhost takes a different approach: it reads the job posting, tailors your application, and actually fills out the forms for you. No spray and pray.

You get 10 free applications per month to try it out.

Would love to hear your thoughts, especially if you've been through the job hunting grind recently.

The current job market is tough to crack. So I decided to do some basic analysis of the rejection emails that I have gotten. The script is at https://github.com/Khante/l and a brief write up is at substack. Just wanted to build something that would put a smile on my face unlike the endless leetcode grinding and applications.

Treetok shows the token count for Claude and OpenAI in a directory structure. I built it because this one folder I was working in filled up the context window quick, and wanted to know why. I could have used line count instead, but I wanted more precision.

Through it, I learned that the same files in Claude cost 20-30% more tokens than OpenAI. So the same 200k context window in Claude is similar to 150k in Codex.

A browser based air traffic control simulation where agentic AI acts as a control tower with an objective of landing airplanes.

It was developed as an experiment in exploring agentic AI capabilities for controlling multiple objects in an active space.

The results were spectacular as a single agent can not only land multiple airplanes, but it also prevents collisions with other airplanes in small busy spaces.
