Your project is listed on Spark — claim your listing

Claim Your Project Listing on Spark

Your project, AB498/computer-control-mcp, has been automatically listed on Spark, a catalog of AI tools and connectors. This provides increased visibility for your project, but you need to claim the listing to unlock its full potential. This article guides you through the process.

The Problem: Unclaimed Listing

While your project's presence on Spark is beneficial, an unclaimed listing lacks the "Maintainer Verified" badge and prevents you from customizing its details or accessing valuable analytics. This means potential users might not be fully aware of your project's capabilities or the official, maintainer-approved information.

Root Cause: Automatic Listing

Spark automatically lists projects based on certain criteria, such as activity, keywords, and overall relevance to the AI ecosystem. This automated process ensures broad coverage but requires maintainers to step in and verify their listings to ensure accuracy and provide up-to-date information.

Solution: Claiming Your Listing

Claiming your project's listing on Spark is a simple process that unlocks several benefits. Here's a step-by-step guide:

Navigate to the Claim Page: Open your web browser and go to the dedicated claim page for your project: https://spark.entire.vc/claim/vb-computer-control-mcp.
Sign In with GitHub: Click the "Sign in with GitHub" button. You'll be redirected to GitHub to authorize Spark to access your account. This authorization is necessary to verify your access to the repository.
Verify Push Access: Spark will verify that you have push access to the AB498/computer-control-mcp repository. This is a crucial step to ensure that only authorized maintainers can claim and manage the listing. You must have write access to the repository.
Complete the Claim: Once your push access is verified, the claim process is complete. You'll now have access to the listing's settings and analytics.

Benefits of Claiming Your Listing

"Maintainer Verified" Badge: This badge assures users that the listing is officially managed and endorsed by the project maintainers.
Edit Listing Details: You can edit the title, description, and tags to accurately reflect your project's features and target audience. This allows you to optimize the listing for search and improve user understanding.
Download Analytics: Access data on how many times your project has been downloaded or accessed through Spark. This provides valuable insights into user engagement and the effectiveness of your listing.
Add a "Listed on Spark" Badge: You can add a badge to your project's README file to promote its presence on Spark and drive traffic to your listing. This increases visibility and encourages users to explore your project through the Spark platform. An example badge would be:
```
<a href="https://spark.entire.vc/assets/vb-computer-control-mcp">
  <img src="https://example.com/spark-badge.svg" alt="Listed on Spark">
</a>
```
(Note: Replace https://example.com/spark-badge.svg with the actual badge image URL provided by Spark after claiming your listing.)
