About Open MCP Index

Free discovery. Free submissions.

Anyone can submit an MCP server without paying a listing fee. An admin checks each submission before it appears in the directory. There are no paid rankings in this version.

“Free” describes access to this directory. Individual MCP servers may require a subscription, API key, or usage payment. We label unconfirmed provider pricing as unknown.

Sources, with credit

We collect public metadata from primary registries and community lists. Each listing links back to its source. Importing a listing does not endorse it or transfer ownership of the underlying server.

• Official MCP Registry ↗

  Publisher-provided manifests, package references, and remote endpoints.

• Smithery ↗

  Public server discovery metadata. Connection details are checked separately from historical hosting claims.

• punkpeye / awesome-mcp-servers ↗

  A community-maintained list, used under its MIT license. Attribution is retained.

• appcypher / awesome-mcp-servers ↗

  An archived reference list. Imports use repository references and original directory summaries; these entries need current review.

What review means

Review checks the description, source attribution, category, connection metadata, and search presentation. Listings are not security certifications. Submissions are collected privately in Youform. Approved metadata is added to the catalog and published in the next static build.

The directory never downloads or runs third-party MCP server code during an import. Installation and authentication remain with the original provider.

Help keep it useful
