Monorepo containing reference MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers implemented and maintained by Anthropic – showcases Memory, Filesystem, Git, Fetch, Time, etc. and links to many community/third-party servers.
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/serversStop hunting across scattered repositories and incomplete documentation. This is the official Model Context Protocol hub that puts the entire MCP ecosystem in one place – from Anthropic's production-ready reference servers to hundreds of community-built integrations.
You're building with Claude or other MCP-compatible clients, but every integration feels like starting from scratch. Finding reliable MCP servers means:
Meanwhile, your actual product development stalls while you're building infrastructure.
This repository eliminates the integration bottleneck. You get:
Battle-tested reference implementations from Anthropic's team – Memory, Filesystem, Git, Fetch, and Time servers that handle the protocol details correctly so you can focus on your application logic.
Instant server deployment with one-liners like npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-git or uvx mcp-server-memory. No setup, no configuration files, no Docker complexity.
Production-grade integrations for 200+ services including GitHub, AWS, Postgres, Redis, Slack, and virtually every major platform your applications need to connect with.
Framework-agnostic tooling with servers built in Python, TypeScript, Java, Go, and more, so you can integrate MCP capabilities regardless of your tech stack.
From research to implementation in minutes: Need to add GitHub integration to your Claude workflow? npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-github gets you full repository access immediately instead of spending days with the GitHub API.
Skip the protocol complexity: Reference servers handle all MCP specification details, error handling, and connection management. You configure once in your client and everything works.
Proven in production: These aren't experimental demos – Anthropic uses these implementations internally, and thousands of developers depend on them daily. You're building on a foundation that scales.
Complete ecosystem visibility: The repository catalogues 400+ MCP servers across databases, APIs, cloud services, and specialized tools. Find exactly what you need or discover capabilities you didn't know existed.
Start with any reference server in seconds:
# Add persistent memory to Claude
npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory
# Give Claude filesystem access
npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /path/to/project
# Connect Claude to your Git workflow
uvx mcp-server-git --repository /path/to/repo
Configure in Claude Desktop:
{
"mcpServers": {
"memory": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"]
},
"filesystem": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/files"]
}
}
}
The repository serves as the definitive MCP ecosystem directory:
Whether you need Redis caching, Kubernetes management, financial data APIs, or custom business logic, the ecosystem has you covered.
This repository should be your first stop for any MCP integration. The reference servers handle common needs immediately, while the ecosystem directory reveals what's possible and points you toward existing solutions instead of custom development.
With 55,000+ stars and active maintenance from Anthropic, you're building on the most reliable foundation in the MCP ecosystem. Your focus stays on product development while MCP handles the connectivity layer.
Start exploring the complete MCP ecosystem – your next integration is probably already built and waiting.
