In the directory, 493 companies are in the official registry and 504 in the GitHub registry. First step: Official registry: mcp-publisher with GitHub, DNS or HTTP namespace proof. ## Steps 1. Official registry: mcp-publisher with GitHub, DNS or HTTP namespace proof. 2. Claude Connectors Directory: developer portal, annotations, OAuth. 3. GitHub MCP Registry: check your listing through the API. 4. Glama: Add Server; claim your listing. ## What the sources say - Publishing to the official registry uses the mcp-publisher CLI; pull requests do not list servers. ([github.com](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry), read 4 November 2026) - Reverse-DNS namespaces need DNS or HTTP proof; io.github./ needs that GitHub login. ([github.com](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry), read 4 November 2026) - Claude Connectors Directory needs a remote HTTPS URL, OAuth 2.0 for user data and title plus readOnlyHint or destructiveHint on every tool. ([claude.com](https://claude.com/docs/connectors/building/submission), read 4 November 2026) - The GitHub MCP Registry API at api.mcp.github.com/v0/servers answered without a key on 4 Nov 2026 and listed 773 entries. ([api.mcp.github.com](https://api.mcp.github.com/v0/servers), read 4 November 2026) - Glama lets anyone add a server; 10,287 of 115,804 listings were claimed on 4 Nov 2026.

A listing is only part of discovery; [a server card](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/guides/publish-an-mcp-server-card/) tells an agent what the server is before it connects. ## Testing your own MCP server Ora scans an MCP server URL and runs 28 of its 132 public checks on it, with check sets that differ for a docs server and a product server. It is the check this directory recommends; it reads public URLs only and publishes no repeat-scan data.
