Development Status

[!WARNING]
The registry is under active development. The registry API spec is unstable and the official MCP registry database may be wiped at any time.

2025-09-04 update: We're targeting a 'preview' go-live on 8th September. This may still be unstable and not provide durability guarantees, but is a step towards being more solidified. A general availability (GA) release will follow later.

Current key maintainers:

• Adam Jones (Anthropic) @domdomegg
• Tadas Antanavicius (PulseMCP) @tadasant
• Toby Padilla (GitHub) @toby

Contributing

We use multiple channels for collaboration - see modelcontextprotocol.io/community/communication.

Often (but not always) ideas flow through this pipeline:

• Discord - Real-time community discussions
• Discussions - Propose and discuss product/technical requirements
• Issues - Track well-scoped technical work
• Pull Requests - Contribute work towards issues

Quick start:

Pre-requisites

• Docker
• Go 1.24.x
• golangci-lint v2.4.0

Running the server

# Start full development environment
make dev-compose

This starts the registry at localhost:8080 with PostgreSQL and seed data. It can be configured with environment variables in docker-compose.yml - see .env.example for a reference.

Alternative: Local setup without Docker

Prerequisites:

• PostgreSQL running locally
• Go 1.24.x installed

# Build and run locally
make build
make dev-local

The service runs on localhost:8080 by default. This can be configured with environment variables in .env - see .env.example for a reference.

Alternative: Running a pre-built Docker image

Pre-built Docker images are automatically published to GitHub Container Registry:

# Run latest stable release
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:latest

# Run latest from main branch (continuous deployment)
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:main

# Run specific release version
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:v1.0.0

# Run development build from main branch
docker run -p 8080:8080 ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:main-20250906-abc123d

Available tags:

• Releases: latest, v1.0.0, v1.1.0, etc.
• Continuous: main (latest main branch build)
• Development: main-<date>-<sha> (specific commit builds)

Publishing a server

To publish a server, we've built a simple CLI. You can use it with:

# Build the latest CLI
make publisher

# Use it!
./bin/mcp-publisher --help

See the publisher guide for more details.

Other commands

# Run lint, unit tests and integration tests
make check

There are also a few more helpful commands for development. Run make help to learn more, or look in Makefile.

Authentication

Publishing supports multiple authentication methods:

• GitHub OAuth - For publishing by logging into GitHub
• GitHub OIDC - For publishing from GitHub Actions
• DNS verification - For proving ownership of a domain and its subdomains
• HTTP verification - For proving ownership of a domain

The registry validates namespace ownership when publishing. E.g. to publish...:

• io.github.domdomegg/my-cool-mcp you must login to GitHub as domdomegg, or be in a GitHub Action on domdomegg's repos
• me.adamjones/my-cool-mcp you must prove ownership of adamjones.me via DNS or HTTP challenge
