MCP Server Lookup

Search 2425+ MCP servers across 39 domains. Returns ready-to-use configs.

Activation Rules

ONLY activate when the user explicitly wants to FIND or SEARCH for MCP servers. Examples:

• "find MCP servers for databases"
• "what MCP servers exist for web scraping"
• "search MCP servers for finance"
• "browse available MCP servers"

Do NOT activate for:

• General questions about MCP protocol
• Help configuring an already-known MCP server
• Casual mentions of "MCP" without a search intent
• Questions about how MCP works

How to Search (LAZY LOAD — never read the full file)

The catalog is at: skills/mcp-lookup/references/mcp-servers-lookup.md (1.1MB — NEVER read the full file)

Always use Grep to search. Never use Read on the full file.

1. By keyword: Grep pattern="<keyword>" path="skills/mcp-lookup/references/mcp-servers-lookup.md"
2. By domain: Grep pattern="### <Domain>" path="skills/mcp-lookup/references/mcp-servers-lookup.md" to find the section header, then grep for specific terms within that domain
3. By name: Grep pattern="<owner/repo>" path="skills/mcp-lookup/references/mcp-servers-lookup.md"

Presenting Results

For each match, show:

• Server name with GitHub link
• Install command
• Domain tags
• Description
• Config JSON (ready to copy into mcpServers)

Config Format

"server-name":{"type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["-y","package-name"]}

Performance Rules

• NEVER read the full reference file — it's 1.1MB and will waste context
• Always use Grep to search for specific terms
• Limit output: Show max 5-10 results for broad queries
• Suggest domains if the query is vague — don't grep blindly
