Mcp Registry Mcp Server
io.github.weiPublished by GitHub account weiv1.1.1Updated Oct 24, 2026
MCP server for querying the official MCP registry.
Overview
Lets an assistant browse, search, and inspect published MCP servers in the official MCP registry, including versions and health.
- What you can do
- Provides tools to query the official MCP registry: list_servers browses and searches registered servers with pagination, list_server_versions shows all versions of a given server, get_server returns detailed information for a specific server version, and health_check reports whether the registry is reachable. It is a read-only lookup layer over registry metadata, so an assistant can answer questions about what MCP servers exist and what versions they publish.
- When to use it
- Useful when you want an assistant to discover MCP servers, compare versions, or check registry status without leaving the chat. Handy for evaluating which server to install next or confirming that a named server and version actually exist.
- Requirements
- Runs locally over stdio, typically started with npx, so Node.js 18.0.0 or higher is needed. An MCP client that supports stdio servers is required. No accounts, API keys, or environment variables are declared; network access to the registry is implied by the query tools.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Mcp Registry Mcp Server in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

📚 How to Use
Once configured, you can ask your AI assistant natural language questions like:

50% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
