Setup
To use via MCP, there are two options:
- Remote (recommended): Add the remote URL in your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"prompts.chat": {
"url": "https://prompts.chat/api/mcp"
}
}
}- Local: Run the MCP server via npx:
{
"mcpServers": {
"prompts.chat": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "prompts.chat", "mcp"]
}
}
}

{
"mcpServers": {
"prompts.chat": {
"url": "https://prompts.chat/api/mcp"
}
}
}
Fit and risk
Not for
- Enterprises needing a dedicated private prompt management tool (unless self-hosted)
- Users looking for specific proprietary prompt sets
- Users needing fully offline functionality (remote mode requires network)
Required permissions
- May require network access for remote MCP mode
- Local mode requires Node.js and npm installed (via npx)
- Self-hosting requires a database (recommended PostgreSQL) and optional authentication configuration
Risks and side effects
- Prompts may contain biased or inaccurate content (community-submitted)
- User prompts may be unfiltered; discretion advised
- Self-hosting requires managing database and authentication, which may involve security configuration risks
Troubleshooting
- Remote connection fails: Check network and MCP endpoint URL
- Local npx command fails: Ensure Node.js and npm are globally installed with compatible versions
- Self-hosting issues: Check PostgreSQL database connection and setup script success
- MCP tool list empty: Confirm the server started and connected properly
