Review first — review before installing

Open the source and read safety notes before installing.

Safety notes

  • Publishing incorrect package pointers can redirect users to malicious artifacts—verify npm/PyPI/Docker coordinates.
  • Deprecation without communication breaks enterprise allowlists—coordinate with platform teams.
  • Registry curation does not replace security scanning of server code in package registries.
  • Private servers are out of registry scope per official documentation.

Privacy notes

  • server.json metadata may expose internal repo URLs or staging endpoints—redact public listings.
  • Aggregator sync logs can reveal unpublished server names—restrict access.
  • OAuth publisher credentials for registry authentication must stay in secret stores.

Prerequisites

  • Verified namespace ownership for servers your organization publishes.
  • Access to server.json metadata and package release pipelines for each MCP server.
  • Downstream marketplace or allowlist that consumes registry API exports.
  • Policy for deprecating servers and communicating breaking version bumps.

## Content

MCP Registry Curator Agent is a community-authored reusable prompt for ongoing curation of
MCP Registry listings. It applies official registry quickstart publish workflows—not an
official MCP Registry staff role.

## Scope Note

This prompt operationalizes documented publish, version, and namespace steps from the MCP
Registry quickstart. Runtime security of server code remains with package registries and
your security team.

## Agent Prompt

You are an MCP Registry curator. Maintain accurate registry listings for your organization
using official quickstart documentation.

Workflow:

1. **Catalog inventory.** List published server names, versions, and downstream consumers.
2. **Namespace audit.** Confirm reverse-DNS namespaces still match verified GitHub or DNS ownership.
3. **Publish hygiene.** Verify server.json package pointers and execution instructions before each release.
4. **Version bumps.** Follow documented versioning guidance when shipping breaking changes.
5. **Deprecations.** Mark stale servers deprecated and notify marketplace or allowlist owners.
6. **Aggregator sync.** Schedule registry API pulls expected by downstream aggregators.
7. **Report.** Produce curation summary with required publisher fixes.

Output contract:

- Registry catalog with version and owner matrix.
- Deprecation and migration recommendations.
- Publish blockers ranked by severity.
- Aggregator sync status notes.

## Features

- Applies registry quickstart publish steps to curation runbooks.
- Tracks namespace ownership and version lifecycle.
- Coordinates deprecations with enterprise allowlists.
- Supports marketplace teams consuming registry API exports.

## Use Cases

- Platform team maintaining org-published MCP servers.
- Quarterly audit of registry listings before marketplace refresh.
- Communicate breaking server.json changes to internal clients.
- Onboard new publishers with quickstart-aligned checklists.

## Source Notes

Verified against MCP Registry quickstart documentation on **2026-06-16**:

- Quickstart docs describe steps to publish an MCP server to the official registry including
  authentication, server.json preparation, and submission workflow.
- Documentation covers namespace verification requirements before publishers can claim reverse-DNS names.
- Versioning and update guidance explains how publishers ship new metadata versions without breaking downstream aggregators unexpectedly.

Safety notes✓Publishing incorrect package pointers can redirect users to malicious artifacts—verify npm/PyPI/Docker coordinates. Deprecation without communication breaks enterprise allowlists—coordinate with platform teams. Registry curation does not replace security scanning of server code in package registries. Private servers are out of registry scope per official documentation.✓Taxonomy labels must not overstate tool safety—mark destructive tools explicitly. Duplicate detection is heuristic; human review required before merging listings. Renaming tools in production servers breaks client configs—coordinate version bumps. Classification does not replace security review of tool implementations.
Privacy notes✓server.json metadata may expose internal repo URLs or staging endpoints—redact public listings. Aggregator sync logs can reveal unpublished server names—restrict access. OAuth publisher credentials for registry authentication must stay in secret stores.✓Tool descriptions may embed example data with secrets—sanitize before sharing taxonomies. Marketplace exports should avoid attaching full JSON schemas with internal field names publicly. User task examples for classification should use synthetic scenarios only.
Prerequisites
  • Verified namespace ownership for servers your organization publishes.
  • Access to server.json metadata and package release pipelines for each MCP server.
  • Downstream marketplace or allowlist that consumes registry API exports.
  • Policy for deprecating servers and communicating breaking version bumps.
  • Exported tool list with names, descriptions, and input schemas from target MCP servers.
  • Existing taxonomy or marketplace categories used by your organization.
  • Policy on destructive versus read-only tool labeling.
  • Sample user tasks showing how operators search for connectors.
