What is the Agent MCP Server?

MCP server registry and marketplace - discover, install, activate tools on demand

What it actually does

Search spans the official MCP registry, npm, and PyPI in one query, so popular servers that aren't in the official index (Microsoft @playwright/mcp, @modelcontextprotocol/server-*, mcp-server-fetch, mcp-server-git, …) all show up.

Recorded tools

  • find_tool — Single-call discovery. Hybrid BM25 + semantic search → top match + confidence label + compact required_args + 4 alternatives. Auto-activates the owning server.
  • find_tools — Batch discovery. Pass intents: [...] to discover N tools in one round-trip. Use for multi-step tasks.
  • get_schema — Full input_schema for a discovered tool. Only needed when the compact required_args summary isn't enough (conditional / polymorphic args).
  • proxy_call — Invoke a discovered tool through agent-discover without exposing it to the host catalog. Pair with find_tool({auto_activate: false}) for huge catalogs.
  • list — Search the local registry by server (FTS5).
  • uninstall — Remove a server.
  • activate — Start a server, discover its tools, expose them to the host as serverName__toolName.
  • deactivate — Stop a server, hide its tools.
  • browse — Federated search across the official MCP registry, npm, and PyPI.
  • status — Active servers summary (names, tool counts, tool lists).
