The Connectors Directory aims to be a collection of high-quality, vetted, and reviewed MCP servers that are helpful and harmless to users. Anyone is welcome to build MCP servers, but only servers meeting the review standards outlined on this page will be included in the directory.

​
What you can submit

Developers can submit:
  • Remote MCP servers — internet-hosted servers that provide tools and data to Claude
  • Desktop extensions — local MCP servers packaged as MCP Bundles (MCPB) for Claude Desktop
  • MCP Apps — MCP servers that surface interactive UI elements. These have the additional requirement of including screenshots for submission and listing in the directory.

​

​
Detail card description

You write the detail card description in the submission form. It is not editable by Anthropic. The disclaimer text shown on connector cards is general and not customizable per partner.

​
Review process

All submissions go through one standard review process; there is no expedited track. Review times vary with queue volume. The submission form is always open. If you can’t access the form because of a corporate firewall or tenant restriction, email mcp-review@anthropic.com—the form is also moving to a native Claude.ai surface. A self-serve status dashboard is rolling out in Claude.ai. Until then, you may not receive proactive notification on every status change; email mcp-review@anthropic.com for escalations. Run the pre-submission checklist and, for plugins, claude plugin validate before you submit.

Submit your connector

Ready to submit? Use the appropriate form based on your connector type: Skills are not a standalone submission type—bundle them in a plugin.

​
What you’ll need for submission

Have the following information ready when filling out the submission form:
  • Server basics — server name, URL, tagline, description, use cases
  • Connection details — auth type, transport protocol, read/write capabilities, connection requirements
  • Data & compliance — data handling practices, third-party connections, health data access, category
  • Tools, resources & prompts — list of all tools (with human-readable names), resources, and prompts in your server, plus confirmation of tool annotations
  • Documentation & support — links to docs, privacy policy, support channel
  • Test account — credentials with step-by-step setup instructions for a reviewer unfamiliar with your service
  • Launch readiness — GA date, confirmation of which surfaces you’ve tested in (Claude.ai, Desktop, etc.)
  • Branding — server logo (URL or SVG upload), favicon verification, promotional screenshots for MCP Apps (see asset specifications above)
  • Documentation link — must be public by your publish date (a blog post or help-center article is sufficient); you can share privately with Anthropic during review
  • Policy & requirements checklists — confirming compliance with directory policy, technical requirements (OAuth, HTTPS, Origin-header validation, annotations), documentation, and testing standards
  • Optional: Skills & Plugins — if submitting a related Agent Skill alongside the server. To submit a standalone plugin, see Submitting your plugin.
