awesome-mcp-servers is one of the most popular curated lists of Model Context Protocol servers on GitHub. It collects servers you install and run yourself, organised into dozens of categories such as browser automation, databases, developer tools, finance, knowledge and memory, search and security, plus sections on frameworks, tutorials, community resources and tips.

It is a good starting point when you are looking for an MCP server for a particular service or task and want to see what exists before choosing. Each entry links to the repository, many carry legend icons for implementation language and local or cloud operation, and many include a quality and maintenance score badge from Glama, an MCP directory associated with the list's maintainer. Hosted servers you connect to over a URL are kept in a separate list, awesome-remote-mcp-servers, and MCP clients in awesome-mcp-clients.

How to use it: browse the table of contents or search the page for the service you need, then evaluate candidates before installing them. Our guide "How to Choose an MCP Server" offers a checklist covering publisher, maintenance, permissions, transport, credentials and licensing.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool. Data as of 2026-10-24.

Trade-offs

!Inclusion is not a security review; many listed servers are small personal projects, so evaluate each before installing.
!The list is very long, so finding the best option for a common task still takes effort.
!Quality badges come from Glama, which is associated with the list's maintainer, and the README includes promoted placements; treat both as signals, not verdicts.

Who it fits

Pick it if
  • You are looking for the most comprehensive, actively maintained catalog of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for Cursor or Claude Desktop.
  • You need categorized listings with quality badges to quickly find tested servers across databases, cloud, dev tools, and APIs.
Look elsewhere if
  • You want an interactive web UI with specs comparisons and selection guides rather than a plain markdown list (AgentIndex provides full reviews).
  • You are building an MCP server from scratch and need an SDK framework (use `fastmcp` or the official SDKs instead).
