Show HN: Fortune Cookie MCP

4 hours ago 2

“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow. Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead.”

Ever wondered what happens when your LLM is guided by the same chaotic energy that powers takeout dessert? Forget “responsible AI.” This is fortune-cookie-driven intelligence.


What is FortuneCookie MCP?

The MCP server that guides your LLM with answers from the fortune cookie factory of chaos.

Every MCP call is a gamble: will your bot inspire, confuse, or simply ignore the laws of logic?

  • Weaponized Wisdom: 100+ fortune cookie quotes, ready to derail any rational workflow.
  • Guaranteed Unpredictability: Every MCP call is a leap of faith.
  1. Your bot asks MCP-FortuneCookie for a fortune.
  2. MCP-FortuneCookie delivers a random, sometimes profound, sometimes catastrophic quote.
  3. Your bot acts accordingly. (Good luck.)
User: Should I deploy to production on a Friday? MCP-FortuneCookie: “Adventure may hurt you, but monotony will kill you.”
User: Should I trust my LLM? MCP-FortuneCookie: “Even a broken clock is right twice a day.”
