// What lives here

An independent, editorially reviewed index of MCP servers.

The Model Context Protocol lets LLM clients call out to servers that expose tools, read files, query databases, hit APIs, or automate your desk. Find the right one and your agent stops guessing and starts shipping.

This directory catalogs every published MCP server we can verify: official Anthropic reference servers, vendor-maintained connectors, and the community long tail. Each entry carries an editorial score, a security read, tool-by-tool notes, and copy-paste install configs for every major client.

We re-review servers weekly. When something ships a breaking change or a questionable permission, the score moves. When it ships something great, we pin it.

// Frequently Asked

QUESTIONS BEFORE
YOU INSTALL.

The short version of everything we get asked about MCP. Deeper dives live in the articles section.

How do I install an MCP server?

Every server card on this page has copy-paste install snippets for Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Cline. For most stdio servers, edit your client config file (e.g. ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json) and restart the client.

Remote servers (SSE, Streamable HTTP) are usually a URL plus an auth token. Cloud-hosted options skip the local install entirely.

What is the difference between stdio, SSE, and Streamable HTTP?

stdio is the default for local servers. The client spawns the server as a subprocess and talks over standard input/output. Fast, simple, and the server runs on your machine.

SSE (Server-Sent Events) and Streamable HTTP are network transports. The server runs anywhere reachable over HTTPS and streams responses back. Use these for team-shared servers, cloud connectors, or anything you prefer to keep off your local machine.

How do you score servers?

Every scored server is tested against a real workflow we would actually run. We look at: tool coverage vs. what the underlying API offers, error handling, documentation quality, install friction, auth story, and security posture. Scores are out of 5.

Scores are living. When a server ships a breaking change, abandons maintenance, or introduces a questionable permission, we re-review.

Is it safe to install a community server?

That depends entirely on the server. stdio servers run with your user permissions and can read files, hit the network, and execute commands. Treat them the way you treat any CLI tool from GitHub: check the source, pin a version, and prefer scoped auth tokens where offered.

Every card flags Requires Auth, Writes to Disk, and Network Egress so you can triage at a glance. Official and vendor-maintained servers receive a tighter security review than community submissions.

Which clients support MCP?

Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code (via the MCP extension), Windsurf, Cline, and a growing list of smaller agents. Each card shows a compatibility row indicating which clients the server has been tested against.

How do I submit a server to this directory?

Open a PR against our public server index, or reach out via the submit form on the contact page. We accept editorial submissions only. Every listing is editorially chosen.

Does AutomationSwitch build MCP servers?

Our parent company Scaletific does, specifically for internal APIs, proprietary systems, and infrastructure that falls outside commodity SaaS. AutomationSwitch itself is the editorial and directory side. If the directory covers your use case, install and go. If you need something custom, the Scaletific CTA below is where to start.

BUILDING A CUSTOM MCP SERVER?

If the directory covers your use case, install and go. If you need a server for your internal APIs or proprietary systems, Scaletific builds custom MCP servers end-to-end.
