# Awesome MCP Servers — Curated MCP Directory > Curated directory of MCP servers across databases, dev tools, web, and productivity. Compare installs, transports, and client support quickly. ## Install Merge the JSON below into your `.mcp.json`: ## Quick Use ```bash git clone https://github.com/YuzeHao2023/Awesome-MCP-Servers cd Awesome-MCP-Servers less README.md ``` ## Intro Awesome MCP Servers is a jump-start directory for discovering MCP servers with real install commands and categorized capabilities. **Best for:** People building MCP client stacks and evaluating which servers to add safely **Works with:** Any MCP client (Claude Desktop/Claude Code/Cursor etc.); install commands vary per server **Setup time:** 2–8 minutes ### Key facts (verified) - Use it as a shortlist builder: pick 3–5 servers, test locally, then promote into team configs. - Combine with a scanner (e.g., Aguara) before deploying third-party servers in shared environments. - GitHub: 1,043 stars · 151 forks; pushed 2026-05-03 (GitHub API verified). ## Main A repeatable evaluation loop for MCP directories: 1) Filter by capability (DB, tracing, CI, browser) and by install surface (single binary vs npm/pip). 2) Prefer servers with explicit licenses, recent pushes, and clear environment variable docs. 3) Start read-only: list tools, call diagnostics, and only then enable write tools. ### README excerpt (verbatim) ![](asserts/logo1.png) # Awesome MCP Servers ![Awesome](https://cdn.rawgit.com/sindresorhus/awesome/d7305f38d29fed78fa85652e3a63e154dd8e8829/media/badge.svg) [![Powered by DartNode](https://dartnode.com/branding/DN-Open-Source-sm.png)](https://dartnode.com "Powered by DartNode - Free VPS for Open Source") A curated, community-driven list of awesome Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, tools, frameworks, clients, and utilities.

Each entry links to a separate MCP server repo. **Q: How do I choose between similar servers?** A: Compare install complexity, transport (stdio vs HTTP), and what clients they document. **Q: How do I reduce risk?** A: Scan third-party servers, run them locally first, and start with read-only tool calls. ## Source & Thanks > Source: https://github.com/YuzeHao2023/Awesome-MCP-Servers > License: Apache-2.0 > GitHub stars: 1,043 · forks: 151 --- ## 快速使用 ```bash git clone https://github.com/YuzeHao2023/Awesome-MCP-Servers cd Awesome-MCP-Servers less README.md ``` ## 简介 Awesome MCP Servers 是一个快速入口：按类别汇总 MCP server，并给出可直接使用的安装线索与能力说明。 **最适合：** 要搭建 MCP 客户端栈、评估要接入哪些 server 的人 **适配：** 任意 MCP 客户端（Claude Desktop/Claude Code/Cursor 等）；不同 server 的安装方式各不相同 **配置时间：** 2–8 分钟 ### 关键事实（已验证） - 把它当作 shortlist 生成器：先挑 3–5 个 server 本地试用，再逐步沉淀到团队配置里。 - 在共享环境引入第三方 server 前，可先配合安全扫描（如 Aguara）做预检。 - GitHub：1,043 stars · 151 forks；最近更新 2026-05-03（GitHub API 验证）。 ## 正文 使用 MCP 目录做评估时建议固定一个循环： 1) 先按能力（DB、tracing、CI、browser）与安装面（单二进制 vs npm/pip）过滤。 2) 优先选择许可证明确、近期更新、环境变量说明清晰的 server。 3) 先从只读开始：tools/list + 诊断调用，确认无误后再逐步开启写入类工具。 ### README 原文节选（verbatim） ![](asserts/logo1.png) # Awesome MCP Servers ![Awesome](https://cdn.rawgit.com/sindresorhus/awesome/d7305f38d29fed78fa85652e3a63e154dd8e8829/media/badge.svg) [![Powered by DartNode](https://dartnode.com/branding/DN-Open-Source-sm.png)](https://dartnode.com "Powered by DartNode - Free VPS for Open Source") A curated, community-driven list of awesome Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, tools, frameworks, clients, and utilities.
