概覽

AI 產生的概覽

遠端 MCP 伺服器,讓助理檢索從創辦人、投資人的演講、文章與貼文中提煉、附上引用的成長、通路與定價方法論。

可以做什麼
  • 在某個「大腦」中檢索關於成長、通路、定價與創業的段落,每筆結果都附來源連結與日期
  • 列出組成該大腦的演講、訪談、文章與貼文合集
  • 透過整合端點列出可用的各個大腦並跨庫檢索
  • 以某位創辦人的觀點提問,例如他會如何為某個產品定價
適用情境
當你希望取得基於某位知名創辦人或投資人公開素材的創業、行銷或定價建議,並能回溯到原始出處時適用,而不是只依賴模型的一般性回答。
執行需求
需要遠端 MCP 端點 mcp.brains.ceo,在 Claude、Cursor、ChatGPT 或 Codex 等用戶端中作為自訂連接器加入。必須透過 OAuth 登入:提供電子郵件並輸入信件中的 6 位數驗證碼。未宣告任何 API 金鑰或環境變數。
安裝前請注意
登入需向該服務提供電子郵件,託管版本也會記錄使用情形。內容為非官方整理,未經當事人認可;回答是衍生摘要與短引用而非原文全文,重要結論應回到所引來源查證。

安裝

在 SourceWeft 中

  1. 開啟 儀表板中的 The Brains,將其新增到工作區。
  2. 連接 所需的 憑證。它們會被私密儲存,絕不會在公開頁面上展示。
  3. 為需要使用其工具的對話啟用該服務。

Web executable,透過 Streamable HTTP。 遠端服務在工作區中設定後即可從網頁執行環境執行。

交給代理程式安裝

把這段提示詞貼上到 Claude Code、Codex、Cursor 等代理程式,或 SourceWeft 對話中。代理程式會讀取該伺服器的安裝指南,先向你展示發布者、端點和登入方式,經你同意後再把它新增到你的客戶端。金鑰不會寫進任何命令。

閱讀 https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.VicPitic%2Fthe-brains/install.md,並按其中說明把這個 MCP 伺服器接入我的客戶端。修改任何設定之前,先告訴我它的發布者、端點和登入方式,等我確認。不要把 API 金鑰寫進命令或我會提交的檔案;問我金鑰應從哪裡取得。

The Brains

The smartest brains on earth, in an MCP.

Founders, CEOs and investors, each turned into a searchable MCP server built from their talks, essays and posts.
Add one to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or Codex. Every answer cites its source.

Use a brain in 30 seconds

Every brain is a public MCP URL: https://mcp.brains.ceo/<slug>/mcp. To get every brain behind one connector, use https://mcp.brains.ceo/mcp (tools: list_brains, search_brains, list_sources).

bash
# Claude Codeclaude mcp add --transport http levels-brain https://mcp.brains.ceo/pieter-levels/mcp# then run /mcp and choose Authenticate
bash
# Codexcodex mcp add levels-brain --url https://mcp.brains.ceo/pieter-levels/mcpcodex mcp login levels-brain

In Cursor, Claude.ai / Claude Desktop and ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server or connector with the same URL. Each brain page on brains.ceo has one-click buttons and step-by-step instructions for each client.

The first time you connect, your client opens a short sign-in: enter your email and the 6-digit code we send you. It's free, and there are no passwords.

Then just ask: "How would Levels price this?" or "What would Paul Graham say about my idea?"

Missing someone? Request a brain. The most-requested ones get built first.

How it works

A brain is a small, curated, cited knowledge base, not an archive of everything someone ever said. Each one holds 15–45 long-form sources and a few hundred hand-picked posts, all filtered to the person's principles on growth, distribution, pricing and building a business.

discover ──▶ curate ──▶ fetch ──▶ cards ──▶ notes ──▶ index ──▶ manifest ──▶ MCP + site (cheap       (Claude     (only the  (one per   (sectioned,  (BM25)    (brain.json) metadata)    picks)      shortlist) source)    third person)
StepCommandOutput
1. Discovernode pipeline/discover.mjs <slug>candidates.json: top X posts, YouTube interviews and talks, essays
1b. Deep X pullnode pipeline/x-deep.mjs <slug> [minFaves] [maxItems]Business-keyword and high-engagement posts (Apify, ~$0.40 per 1,000)
1c. LinkedIn pullnode pipeline/linkedin.mjs <slug> [maxPosts]Recent LinkedIn posts and profile for LinkedIn-first people (Apify, ~$2 per 1,000 posts)
1d. Full post textnode pipeline/x-refresh.mjs <slug>Re-fetches the full text of long X posts already in a brain (~$0.0004 per post)
2. Curatea Claude agent following docs/brain-runbook.mdshortlist.json: 12–30 long-form sources, 60–300 posts
3. Fetchnode pipeline/fetch.mjs <slug>Transcripts and essay text for the shortlist only (not committed)
4. Cardsnode pipeline/summarize.mjs <slug>cards/: title, summary, verbatim quotes, topics, quality score
5. Notesnode pipeline/notes.mjs <slug>notes/: sectioned third-person notes, the passages search returns
6. Indexnode pipeline/build.mjs <slug>index.json, which the MCP server loads
7. Manifestnode pipeline/brain.mjs <slug>brain.json: tagline, topics, principles and sample Q&A, every line cited

Steps 2, 4, 5 and 7 run on headless Claude Code (claude -p), so they use a Claude subscription instead of API credits. The first 10 brains cost about $3.50 in total in scraping fees.

Architecture

  • server/ is one Express app (TypeScript, run with tsx) that serves:
    • the website (web/)
    • every brain as a stateless Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at /<slug>/mcp
    • OAuth 2.1 with dynamic client registration, where sign-in is email plus a 6-digit code (server/oauth.ts)
    • usage tracking and a password-protected /admin with an email CSV export
  • web/ is a no-build vanilla HTML/CSS/JS site: a search-first directory, brain pages with cited principles and sources, and per-client install instructions.
  • pipeline/ has the scripts above. They're idempotent: re-running a step skips finished work.
  • data/brains/<slug>/ holds each brain's curated, derived content: brain.json, index.json, cards/, notes/ and shortlist.json.
  • External brains are ones people already run themselves, like Nevo David's mcp.nevo.md. They're listed with node pipeline/external.mjs <slug> from pipeline/external/<slug>.json, and installs go straight to their URL.

Run it yourself

bash
git clone https://github.com/VicPitic/the-brains.gitcd the-brainsnpm installnpm start            # http://localhost:8790

That's enough to browse and use all the brains locally. Without DATABASE_URL, the MCP endpoints are open and nothing is tracked. Add one locally:

bash
claude mcp add --transport http levels-brain http://localhost:8790/pieter-levels/mcp

To build new brains or turn on sign-in and tracking, copy .env.example to .env.local and fill in what you need. Deployment is a single service plus Postgres. We run the website on Railway and the same service on Manufact for the MCP host (mcp.brains.ceo), with BEHIND_MCP_GATEWAY=true and CLIENT_IP_HEADER=cf-connecting-ip.

Content and takedowns

  • Brains are unofficial. They're built only from public talks, interviews, essays and posts, and they're not affiliated with or endorsed by the people they're about unless marked "claimed".
  • Every passage cites its original source. The repo contains only our derived summaries and short quotes. Raw transcripts and scraped articles are never committed.
  • Are you one of these people? Email [email protected] to claim your brain, correct it, add sources, or have it removed.
