Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only Ascension leaderboard of consumer AI apps, letting an assistant look up daily App Store and Google Play ranks, a single app's position, and weekly…

What you can do
  • List the top consumer AI apps on the live daily board or the latest frozen week, with rank, platform, change, date and app page
  • Look up one app by fuzzy name and get its rank on the live board and in the latest frozen week
  • See which apps climbed, dropped, joined or left the board for the latest week, a specific Monday week, or day over day
When to use it
Useful when you want current or recent ranking context on consumer AI apps, such as tracking how a named app is trending or summarizing weekly chart movement. It is a narrow, read-only data source rather than a general app-store analytics tool.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at ascension.fyi; no authentication, environment variables or headers are declared. Network access to the endpoint is needed.
Before you install
Data is ranks only and read-only, so it cannot change anything. The server asks that Ascension be credited and linked when its data is used, under CC BY 4.0; check that attribution requirement before publishing results.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Ascension: AI app leaderboard in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/fyi.ascension%2Fleaderboard/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
