MCP support

The project is an MCP server exposing tools for querying the official MCP Registry, including listing, search, version lookup, details, and health checks.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wei-mcp-registry": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-registry-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}
Run commandnpx -y mcp-registry-mcp-server

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

From the project README

mcp-registry-mcp-server

npm version License: MIT

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools to query the official MCP Registry. This server enables AI assistants and applications to discover, search, and retrieve information about published MCP servers programmatically.

✨ Features

  • 🔍 List Servers: Browse all registered MCP servers with pagination
  • 🔎 Search: Find servers by name with filtering options
  • 📦 Version Management: View all versions of specific servers
  • 📝 Detailed Information: Get comprehensive server details
  • 💚 Health Checks: Monitor registry availability

🚀 Quick Start

Install in VS Code Install in Cursor

Other Clients

Sample configuration (double check the documentation of your MCP client for exact syntax and file locations):

{
  "mcp-registry-mcp-server": {
    "type": "stdio",
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "mcp-registry-mcp-server"]
  }
}

📚 How to Use

Once configured, you can ask your AI assistant natural language questions like:

  • "What new MCP servers have recently been released?"
  • "Search for filesystem-related MCP servers"
  • "Show me the latest version of the github-mcp-server"
  • "Get details about the Chrome DevTools MCP server"
  • "Is the MCP registry healthy?"

The AI will automatically use the appropriate registry tools to answer your questions.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
