MCP Registry – GitHub’s Official Platform for MCP Servers

What is MCP Registry？

MCP Registry is a centralized platform launched by GitHub, providing developers with a unified way to discover and install MCP servers. The platform addresses the previous issue of MCP servers being scattered across multiple registries, random repositories, and community discussions, enabling developers to easily find the AI tools they need in one place. MCP Registry supports all MCP-protocol-based tools, including GitHub Copilot and AI Agents, allowing developers to efficiently locate the right tools, accelerate development workflows, and promote a more open and interoperable ecosystem.

Key Features of MCP Registry

• Centralized Discovery: Offers a single platform for quickly finding various MCP servers, avoiding the cumbersome process of searching across multiple decentralized registries, repositories, and community discussions.

• Simplified Usage: Makes it easier for developers to explore and use MCP servers, accelerating AI tool integration and development workflows, improving overall efficiency.

• Ecosystem Support: Promotes a more open and interoperable AI tool ecosystem, helping developers quickly find suitable tools and fostering innovation and collaboration.

• Security and Compliance: Reduces security risks associated with using dispersed MCP servers through centralized management and standardized registration processes, providing a more reliable user experience.
