Find MCP servers for your workflow

A hand-checked Model Context Protocol directory for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and every MCP client. Every listing carries an install command, its source repository, and exactly what the server can reach — GitHub, Postgres, Stripe, a real browser. Copy one command, restart your client, done.

25 servers across 12 categories, each with its own page.

Install an MCP server in three steps

  1. Find the server. Search the directory or open a category, then pick the server for the system you want your agent to reach.
  2. Copy the install command. Each page carries a one-line command or a ready-made JSON block for your client config.
  3. Restart and use the tools. The server's tools appear in your next session, scoped to the credentials you gave it.

Frequently asked questions

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard, introduced by Anthropic in November 2024, that lets AI assistants talk to external tools and data through one common interface. Instead of a bespoke integration per app, a client speaks MCP once and can reach every MCP server.

What is an MCP server?

An MCP server is a small program that exposes a system — GitHub, Postgres, Stripe, a browser, your filesystem — to an AI client as a set of tools, resources and prompts. The client calls those tools; the server does the work and controls what is exposed.

How do I install an MCP server?

Copy the install command from the server's page on this directory, add it to your MCP client's config (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and Windsurf all read a JSON config), then restart the client. The server's tools appear in the next session.

Which clients support MCP servers?

Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, Zed, Cline and Continue all support MCP servers today, and the list keeps growing as the protocol is adopted. Any server in this directory works with any of them.

Are MCP servers free to use?

Almost all of the MCP servers listed here are free and open source — you run them yourself, on your own machine or infrastructure. Some connect to paid third-party APIs, in which case that service's own pricing applies.

Are MCP servers safe to run?

An MCP server runs with the permissions you give it, so treat one like any other dependency: prefer official or well-starred servers, read what tools it exposes, and scope its API keys narrowly. Servers marked Official on this site are published by the vendor of the system they connect to.

What is the difference between an MCP server and an Agent Skill?

An MCP server is a running process that exposes live tools over the protocol. An Agent Skill is a packaged set of instructions and files that teaches an assistant a workflow, with no server to run. Many setups use both — skills for know-how, servers for reach.

How do I add my MCP server to this directory?

Use the Submit page to send us the repository and a short description. Listings are reviewed by hand before they appear, which is what keeps this directory curated rather than a scrape of every repo mentioning MCP.
