957 servers in this category
MCPpedia tracks 957 education MCP servers. 226 of them score at least 50 out of 100, and 126 clear 70 - about 13% of what has been published in this space. The remaining 731 are thinner: registry entries with no description, no published tool schema, or no commit in the last year. They are all still listed here, because knowing a server exists and is unmaintained is worth as much as knowing a good one exists.
io.github.mims-harvard/tooluniverse leads the list at 96/100. io.github.amos689/paper-preflight (93) and Arxiv MCP Server (91) follow. Every score is the same five weighted inputs: security (CVE scanning, tool-poisoning detection, and whether the server authenticates at all), maintenance (commit recency, release cadence, and download trend), documentation, client compatibility, and token efficiency - how much of your context window the tool definitions consume before you have asked anything.
4 of these servers are published by the vendor behind the underlying API rather than by a third party, which is usually the difference between an integration that tracks upstream changes and one that quietly stops working. 1 currently carry an open CVE; those are flagged on the server's own page with the advisory and its severity.
