  • submit_serverAdd an MCP server to the registry.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "submit_server" says "submit": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Add an MCP server to the registry. New submissions are reviewed by a maintainer before they appear in search; get_server shows their status meanwhile. Fill in what you know from the server's README or package metadata. If the result is an error, fix the fields it names and call again. Never include secrets: env_vars takes variable names only, not values.

  • get_serverGet one server by its exact name: its server.json manifest, its review status, and ready-to-use install snippets.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_server" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Get one server by its exact name: its server.json manifest, its review status, and ready-to-use install snippets. Use it to check on a server you submitted; status is pending until a maintainer approves it.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "search_servers" says "search": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Search the registry for MCP servers. Matches names, titles, descriptions, tags and the names of the tools each server exposes. Returns short summaries; call get_server for install instructions. Search before submit_server so you don't add a duplicate.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.

Install

Pinned to version 1.0.1. Values in angle brackets are yours to fill in.

claude mcp add --transport http registry-search-directory https://ai.mcpharbor.dev/mcp

Run in a terminal.

Claude Code permissions

Allow the reads, ask before a change, deny the deletes. Paste into .claude/settings.json.

.claude/settings.json
{
  "permissions": {
    "allow": [
      "mcp__registry-search-directory__search_servers",
      "mcp__registry-search-directory__get_server"
    ],
    "ask": [
      "mcp__registry-search-directory__submit_server"
    ],
    "deny": []
  }
}

Tools that only read are allowed, tools that change things ask first, tools that delete or cancel are denied. It assumes the server is installed as registry-search-directory. Review it before you use it.
