What authentication does Slidev require?

No provider sign-in was required during MCPBundles' probe. Your client may still need MCPBundles credentials depending on how you connect.

Slidev | MCP Directory

For AI agents — MCPBundles Directory API
Recommended: Directory API v1 over HTTP for detail and anonymous invoke when eligible (not MCP JSON-RPC on the publisher URL; no user MCPBundles credentials on v1).
GET https://www.mcpbundles.com/api/directory/v1/servers/slidev-mcp-mcp-81b385eee4
GET https://www.mcpbundles.com/api/directory/v1/servers/slidev-mcp-mcp-81b385eee4?live=1 (optional live refresh)
GET https://www.mcpbundles.com/api/directory/v1/servers/slidev-mcp-mcp-81b385eee4/tools/<tool> (one tool: schema + invoke.url)
POST https://www.mcpbundles.com/api/directory/v1/servers/slidev-mcp-mcp-81b385eee4/tools/{tool}
POST body: flat JSON of tool argument names and values; not an arguments wrapper. Replace {tool} with a tool name from GET detail.
Restricted agent shell (ChatGPT Codex desktop, some IDE sandboxes):
Default command sandboxes often block outbound network. curl exit 6 or "Could not resolve host" for www.mcpbundles.com is usually sandbox DNS — not evidence this site is down.
Retry the same Directory API GET with sandbox_permissions "require_escalated" and a one-sentence justification on the shell tool (Codex on-request approval). Do not tell the user the site is unreachable from sandbox curl alone.
Example justification: Run the public MCPBundles Directory API search outside the command sandbox to complete the user's MCP server lookup.
If the agent has browser access (e.g. Codex @Browser): open https://www.mcpbundles.com/?q=<query> or stay on this page — no shell network needed. Use WebMCP search_mcp_servers then get_mcp_server (document.modelContext / page tools; refresh with fetchTools or getTools if a tool id is missing from the snapshot). Read-only directory search; same index as Directory API v1 GETs. Neither WebMCP nor Directory API v1 uses user MCPBundles credentials.
Without a browser: after escalated curl fails, use GET https://www.mcpbundles.com/?q=<query> with Accept: text/markdown for ranked results.
Hub MCP (connected session): discover_mcp_servers — same filter semantics as search_mcp_servers.

Render Slidev Presentation — Render a Slidev presentation from markdown and return its hosted URL. IMPORTANT: Before calling this tool, you MUST call get_theme with the theme name you plan to use. Each theme has unique layouts, components, and frontmatter options. Apply the theme's specific features in your markdown to produce high-quality slides that match the theme's design. If the user has not specified a theme, call list_themes to pick one. If you are unfamiliar with Slidev markdown syntax, call get_slidev_guide. Ima
List Session Slides — Look up presentations by UUID. Returns URLs, themes, and timestamps for each requested presentation. The server does not track which presentations belong to a conversation, so pass the UUIDs you got back from render_slides. Unknown UUIDs are omitted.
List Themes — Get a list of all available themes with style descriptions and recommendations. Call this to decide which theme to use. Returns a guide organized by style (dark, academic, modern, playful, etc.) with "best for" recommendations. After picking a theme, call get_theme with the theme name to read its full documentation (layouts, components, examples) before rendering. This tool does NOT display anything to the user — it is for your own reference when choosing a theme.
Browse Themes — Show the user a visual theme gallery with preview images. ONLY call this when the user explicitly asks to SEE or BROWSE themes visually (e.g. "show me the themes", "what do they look like", "let me pick a theme"). This renders an interactive gallery in the user's UI. To show a filtered subset (e.g. only dark themes), first call list_themes to identify matching themes, then pass their names here. Do NOT call this to decide which theme to use yourself — use list_themes for that instead.
Get Theme Details — Get full documentation for a specific theme: layouts, components, and examples. Call this BEFORE render_slides to learn the theme's unique features. Each theme has different layouts, components, and frontmatter options. Use what you learn here to produce high-quality, theme-specific slides. This is the primary tool for preparing to render slides. When the user specifies a theme, call this directly — no need to call browse_themes.
