OpenAPISearch – Make APIs Accessible for AI Codegen

Hey Hackernews! In the last few days I've dug up some work I was working on last year but never was able to ship due to perfectionism. But with my new attitude, here it is: I also immediately got it in MCP-form so you can use it in Claude and Cursor as well. Enable Claude / Cursor to know ANY API!! Video and links here: https://x.com/janwilmake/status/1903497808134496583 P.S. Expect bugs. Building in public. I've tested it with a few apis so far, and so far it worked really well as MCP every time. P.P.S. It's all Open source!…

OpenAPISearch – Make APIs Accessible for AI Codegen launched on March 22, 2025 with 10 votes, #2,743 of 7,215 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

In plain words

OpenAPISearch makes APIs accessible to AI code generation tools like Claude and Cursor. The tool helps these AI assistants understand and work with any API by providing searchable API documentation. It's available as an open-source project and can be used as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Claude and Cursor, enabling developers to leverage AI for code generation with real API knowledge. The project is actively being built in public.

    Just to clarify the background a bit. This project wasn’t planned as a big standalone release at first. On January 16, Ollama added support for an Anthropic-compatible API, and I was curious how far this could be pushed in practice. I decided to try plugging local Ollama models directly into a Claude Code-style workflow and see if it would actually work end to end. Here is the release note from Ollama that made this possible: https://ollama.com/blog/claude Technically, what I do is pretty straightforward: - Detect which local models are available in Ollama. - When…

    Hi all! I normally work on the PyTorch project but I've been on baby leave for the past month, so I've been playing around with AI as a user rather than a framework implementor. I really liked the agent experience with Claude Code, but I couldn't really justify spending so many dollars on API costs for random side projects. I already pay for a Claude Pro subscription though, and it turns out you can simulate many of Claude Code's features with an MCP. If you have a Pro subscription, check this out! I think it really captures the Claude Code experience quite well, without forcing you to pay…
