# Trivia Devs

> Trivia Devs is a community-driven, AI-powered platform where developers discover, share, and validate the best developer tools, libraries, frameworks, AI models, MCP servers, courses, and learning resources — ranked by real developers, for developers.

Trivia Devs solves the "which tool should I actually use?" problem. Instead of scattered blog posts and unmaintained awesome-lists, it offers a living, community-validated catalogue: every resource carries a submitter's honest take, star ratings, trust-weighted reviews, freshness signals (is it still maintained?), and a public "avoid" list for tools the community warns against. Reputation is earned through helpful reviews and quality submissions, not vanity metrics.

## For AI agents (MCP)

Trivia Devs exposes a public, read-only MCP server so AI coding agents can query the community-validated catalogue directly while helping a developer choose a stack.

- MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP): https://triviadevs.dev/api/mcp
- Install guide: https://triviadevs.dev/for-agents
- Tools: best_for (top resources for a category/tag), search_resources (natural-language search), compare (two resources head-to-head), avoid (community-flagged resources to skip), get_resource (full detail by id or slug)
