Legitshow Search

[!IMPORTANT] This server has been merged into commitshow-mcp and is no longer published.

commitshow-mcp carries the same two tools — search_services and fetch_docs, with identical arguments — and adds audit_repo and project_status. Two entries under one name, half of them the same, gave anyone browsing the registry no way to tell which to install; there is one now.

jsonc

{ "mcpServers": { "legitshow": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "commitshow-mcp@latest"] } } }

The npm package and the registry entry io.github.commitshow/legitshow-search are both marked deprecated. The source stays here as the record of what it was.

Legit.Show MCP server

Model Context Protocol server for Legit.Show. Plug it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, or any MCP host, and your model can search a directory of launched software by measured production-readiness — not GitHub stars — without ever leaving the chat.

[npm] [MIT license] [node 20+]

// any MCP host config (Claude Desktop · Cursor · Cline · Windsurf · …){  "mcpServers": {    "legitshow": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "legitshow-mcp"]    }  }}

That's the entire install. No API key. The server is a stdio shim over the public https://legit.show/api/search REST surface — one source of truth for the data.

Why this is different

Most "find me a tool" flows rank by GitHub stars or popularity. Legit.Show carries a deterministic 7-Frame production-readiness benchmark (Performance, Accessibility, Security, Privacy, Reliability, Standards, Discoverability) measured from the public surface — real Lighthouse, HTTP headers, live probes, no LLM in the scoring path. So your agent can filter by whether something is actually production-ready:

"find production-ready, open-source MCP servers with Security ≥ 80"

Tools exposed

Boundary: per-frame scores + summary + the page only. There is no combined overall total in the public data (it's a licensed product), so the model won't invent one.

Host wiring snippets

Claude Desktop — claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "legitshow": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "legitshow-mcp"] } } }

Cursor — .cursor/mcp.json

{ "mcpServers": { "legitshow": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "legitshow-mcp"] } } }

Cline / Continue / Windsurf

Same three-line npx -y legitshow-mcp invocation in the host's MCP config.

No MCP host? Plain REST

GET https://legit.show/api/search?q=<name>

Filters: category, min_scores (e.g. {"security":80}), is_open_source, limit (≤50). GET or POST. No key.
