Founders OS, an open-source AI assistant toolkit for small business owners, launches with 92 tools for managing customers, tasks, finances, and projects—all integrated into Claude, Cursor, or any compatible AI client.

What happened

OurThinkTank released Founders OS, a self-hosted MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects to Supabase and an embedding API. It bundles 92 tools across 12 modules: CRM (13 tools), Tasks (12 tools), Projects (5 tools), Playbooks (11 tools), Financial (14 tools), Feeds (13 tools), Memory (5 tools), Tags (4 tools), Members (4 tools), Surfaces (4 tools), Audit + Restore (2 tools), and Diagnostics (5 tools). Users can configure it by entering Supabase and embedding credentials into a wizard at foundersmcp.com/setup, then copy the generated config into their AI client.

What to watch

The platform supports playbooks—reusable automation templates that can spin up tasks and trigger external actions (like creating a GitHub repo or posting to Slack) in a single command. If external connectors aren't available, steps gracefully fall back to manual tasks, so workflows remain usable. The setup is designed for technical founders or small teams comfortable running their own Supabase instance; a detailed onboarding guide ('Read This First') is included for teams new to AI assistants.
