MCP = Model Context Protocol. Anthropic-designed open standard (Nov 2024) that lets any LLM client talk to any external tool through a single JSON-RPC interface. Install a server like @modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres, point Claude at it, and now the agent can read your DB. Same pattern for Slack, GitHub, Figma — 80+ servers below.Full guide

How to connect an MCP server in 60 seconds

Two ways: one-click via the Add to Cursor button on each card (Cursor opens with the config pre-filled), or paste the JSON block into your client's config file. Works identically across Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf — same shape.

Claude Desktop / Code

File: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (Mac)

{ "mcpServers": { "filesystem": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/Users/you/projects"] } } }

Cursor / Cline / Windsurf

File: .cursor/mcp.json or settings UI

{ "mcpServers": { "github": { "command": "docker", "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN", "ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server"], "env": { "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "ghp_..." } } } }

For remote MCP servers (anything with a URL in this directory — Linear, Sentry, PostHog, Vercel, Cloudflare), you can also use the /mcp command inside Claude Code to add it via OAuth without editing JSON.

Like this directory?

The full StackPicks directory has 165+ OSS picks with honest curator takes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?+

MCP is an open standard released by Anthropic in November 2024. It defines a single JSON-RPC interface so any LLM client (Claude, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Continue) can connect to any external tool — databases, GitHub, Slack, Figma — without writing custom integration code.

How many MCP servers exist in May 2026?+

StackPicks has indexed 89 production-ready MCP servers across 18 categories. The ecosystem includes ~15 official Anthropic reference servers, ~35 vendor-built servers from companies like GitHub, Cloudflare, Stripe, Supabase, and ~40 high-quality community servers.

How do I install an MCP server?+

Two paths: (1) Click "Add to Cursor" on any card here — Cursor opens with the install dialog pre-filled. (2) Manually edit your client config: claude_desktop_config.json (Claude Desktop), .cursor/mcp.json (Cursor), or the settings UI (Cline/Windsurf). The JSON shape is identical across all clients.

Which MCP servers should I install first?+

Start with five official Anthropic servers: Filesystem (file edits), GitHub (issues + PRs), Fetch (read URLs), Sequential Thinking (better planning), and Memory (persistent knowledge graph). Together they cover 80% of real workflows. All are listed in the directory above.

Are remote MCP servers different from local?+

Yes. Local MCP servers run as subprocesses on your machine (stdio transport). Remote MCP servers are hosted by the vendor and authenticate via OAuth — Linear, Sentry, PostHog, Cloudflare, Vercel ship remote servers so you never hold raw API keys. Both are listed with their transport type in the directory.

Is this MCP directory free?+

Yes. The full 89-server MCP directory is free, no signup required. Curated paid content lives at /preview (165+ open-source repos with curator takes) and the stack bundles at /build. Lifetime access is ₹99 / $2.99.

Built an MCP server we missed? Submit it → We update this directory monthly with full credit to maintainers.
