So I'm constantly using this.

This is another big one.

The next one is MCP servers.

So last time I came on the podcast, I was not using MCP servers.

And to be honest, I didn't understand what all the hype was about with MCP servers.

I now understand where they're useful, especially for coding.

So there's two MCP servers that I'm currently using.

The first one's called Contact7.

It's a free MCP server.

Basically, it just...

lets you access the latest version of a lot of different documentation, and it's very compressed and very well formatted for an LLM.

What I typically would do is I would just get the documentation for something.

Let's say I wanted to integrate PostHog Analytics into my app.

I would typically say, by the way, here's the link to PostHog, go implement it for me.

But the problem with that is now it has to go scrape it, maybe it doesn't do it correctly.

Or you can use Context 7, hook up the MCP server, and you're basically giving Claude code and cursor tools.

And now it has access to Context 7, which now I can just say, oh, make sure to use the latest documentation for PostHog.

Please use the Context 7 MCP.

And when you do this, it's going to use Context 7, pull the latest documentation, really compressed, really, really more digestible for Cloud Coder Cursor, and it will just use it way better than you trying to feed it in through a URL or something.

So that's the first one.
