Curio MCP
Connect your AI to Curio — a design-style library built for AI agents. Hundreds of tokenized design styles (real design movements, brands, cultural traditions), each with a machine-readable spec your agent can apply directly to slides, websites, and products.
- Endpoint:
https://mcp.designbycurio.com/mcp(streamable HTTP) - Auth: OAuth sign-in — no API key. Searching and browsing are free; 1 credit unlocks a style for good (credit packs, never expire).
- Docs: designbycurio.com/docs
Tools
| Tool | What it does | Cost |
|---|---|---|
search_styles | Keyword + facet search over the library | free |
list_styles | Browse / paginate, filtered by facets | free |
get_style | Metadata + preview image for one style | free |
get_style_spec | Full design spec (DESIGN.md) for a style you've unlocked; for a locked style it returns the cost and your balance instead | free |
unlock_style | Unlock a style for good and return its spec — your AI asks you first | 1 credit, once per style |
get_balance | Your credit balance and how many styles you've unlocked | free |
Your AI never spends a credit on its own: get_style_spec only reads, and unlock_style is meant to be called after you agree. Unlocking a style you already own costs nothing.
