MCP Registry Server

MCP Registry Server is an MCP server that provides discovery and retrieval capabilities for other Model Context Protocol servers via MCPulse. Built with Node.js and TypeScript, it allows AI clients such as Claude Desktop to perform semantic searches across an MCP server registry using natural language queries. Developers, AI engineers, and users working with extensive tool ecosystems use this server to dynamically identify available servers that match specific capabilities, protocols, or integration tasks. Rather than manually tracking multiple GitHub repositories or directory listings, the connected client can issue semantic queries to discover existing tooling on demand. The server exposes a dedicated retrieval tool that accepts natural language search terms, queries the underlying MCP registry database, and returns relevant server listings. By integrating this server into an MCP-enabled workflow, agents can automatically locate complementary tools needed to solve complex development or automation problems.

How to install and configure MCP Registry Server

1. Build the server locally by cloning the repository: bash git clone https://github.com/KBB99/mcp-registry-server.git cd mcp-registry-server npm install npm run build 2. Verify the server build runs correctly: bash node ./dist/index.js 3. Add the server entry to your claude_desktop_config.json file: json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-registry-server": { "command": "node", "args": [ "./path/to/build/mcp-registry-server/dist/index.js" ] } } } Alternatively, install it via Smithery by executing: bash npx -y @smithery/cli install @KBB99/mcp-registry-server --client claude
