For humans + agents

Connect Physician Forge to your AI

You don’t need to scrape this site or paste essays into chat. MCP is a plug: your agent (Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, and friends) asks Physician Forge for Journal pieces, ship logs, membership facts, and Stats headlines — live, read-only.

Never used Cursor? Start here first — download, open a folder, give it a job: Cursor for people who don’t code. Then come back and paste the URL below into MCP settings.

Want the “why” behind this pattern? What agent-native and MCP actually mean.

The one URL

https://physicianforge.com/mcp

No API key for these public tools. Rate-limited. Nothing writes to Discord or Stripe.

What this is (non-coder version)

Think of MCP like a shared phone book of actions. Physician Forge publishes a short list — “search our writing,” “pull this article,” “what’s on Stats today.” Your AI app dials that list instead of guessing from memory or grinding through HTML.

You’re still in charge. The agent only reads what we already publish for free. Paid BuildForge chapters stay behind checkout.

How to connect in Cursor

Open Cursor (if you’re stuck on install or Agent vs Ask, use the non-coder walkthrough).
Go to Settings → MCP (or open your mcp.json).
Add a remote server named something like physicianforge with this URL:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "physicianforge": {
      "url": "https://physicianforge.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Save, wait for the green/healthy status, then in Agent chat try: “Use Physician Forge MCP — what’s the latest ship log and today’s Stats headlines?”

What the agent can do

Site overview — what this is, free vs paid, key URLs
Search / list writing — Journal essays and /building/ ship logs
Get an article — markdown for free pages only
Stats snapshot — first-party humans / bots / AI referrals
Membership + book facts — pricing and buy links (not chapter text)
llms.txt — the live machine index at /llms.txt

BuildForge PDF + SKILL.md are not on MCP — only the commercial facts and Stripe links. Free how-we-built posts on /building/ stay open.
