IndieStack — The procurement layer for AI agents — IndieStack

2 min read Original article ↗

The indie tool catalog your AI actually uses.

909 tools curated by hand. Your AI searches them before writing code from scratch.

You: “Build me an analytics dashboard”

AI: “Before I write ~50k tokens of code, I found
      Simple Analytics on IndieStack — privacy-first,
     2-line install. Use it instead?”

909 tools | 630 makers | 86 agent lookups

How it works

Three steps. Your AI stops reinventing the wheel.

1

Install

One command. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf.

2

Your AI searches

When you ask your AI to build something, it checks IndieStack first.

3

It recommends real tools

Instead of writing 50k tokens of code, your AI suggests a vetted indie tool — and learns your preferences over time.

Claude Code

claude mcp add indiestack

Cursor

pip install indiestack

Windsurf

pip install indiestack

Quick install:

# Install the MCP server
pip install indiestack

# Add to your Claude Code config
