MCP Registry

The MCP registry provides MCP clients with a list of MCP servers, like an app store for MCP servers.

📤 Publish my MCP server | ⚡️ Live API docs | 👀 Ecosystem vision | 📖 Full documentation

Development Status

2025-10-24 update: The Registry API has entered an API freeze (v0.1) 🎉. For the next month or more, the API will remain stable with no breaking changes, allowing integrators to confidently implement support. This freeze applies to v0.1 while development continues on v0. We'll use this period to validate the API in real-world integrations and gather feedback to shape v1 for general availability. Thank you to everyone for your contributions and patience—your involvement has been key to getting us here!

2025-09-08 update: The registry has launched in preview 🎉 (announcement blog post). While the system is now more stable, this is still a preview release and breaking changes or data resets may occur. A general availability (GA) release will follow later. We'd love your feedback in GitHub discussions or in the #registry-dev Discord (joining details here).

Contributing

We use multiple channels for collaboration - see modelcontextprotocol.io/community/communication.

Often (but not always) ideas flow through this pipeline:

Discord - Real-time community discussions
Discussions - Propose and discuss product/technical requirements
Issues - Track well-scoped technical work
Pull Requests - Contribute work towards issues

Quick start:

Pre-requisites

Docker
Go 1.24.x
ko - Container image builder for Go (installation instructions)
golangci-lint v2.4.0

Running the server

# Start full development environment
make dev-compose

This starts the registry at localhost:8080 with PostgreSQL. The database uses ephemeral storage and is reset each time you restart the containers, ensuring a clean state for development and testing.

Note: The registry uses ko to build container images. The make dev-compose command automatically builds the registry image with ko and loads it into your local Docker daemon before starting the services.

By default, the registry seeds from the production API with a filtered subset of servers (to keep startup fast). This ensures your local environment mirrors production behavior and all seed data passes validation. For offline development you can seed from a file without validation with MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FROM=data/seed.json MCP_REGISTRY_ENABLE_REGISTRY_VALIDATION=false make dev-compose.

The setup can be configured with environment variables in docker-compose.yml - see .env.example for a reference.

Alternative: Running a pre-built Docker image

Pre-built Docker images are automatically published
