### The sign-in route, step by step

1.  Send the handshake to `https://www.primitive.dev/mcp` over streamable-http. Servers on the 2026-07-28 revision answer `server/discover`; older servers answer `initialize`.
2.  Send `tools/list`, then `resources/list` and `prompts/list` if the capabilities name them.
3.  Send no token. The connector sent none and the server answered, so any MCP client can read this list.
4.  Calling a tool is a separate step this directory never takes.

See [OAuth for MCP: client ID metadata documents and dynamic registration](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/guides/oauth-for-mcp-cimd-dcr/) for how each route works.

## CLI

No CLI is on record for Primitive. The directory checks a package only where a source names one, so this is a floor: a company can ship a command line that no source read for this edition mentions. See [shipping a CLI agents can use](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/guides/ship-a-cli-for-agents/).
