Built from what Official MCP Registry declares.
claude mcp add --transport stdio search-papers -- npx -y search-papers[mcp_servers.search-papers]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "search-papers"]{
"mcpServers": {
"search-papers": {

"args": [
"-y",

Found by meaning, not by shared code or a shared repository: similar plugins stay separate products, and this is not a review or a recommendation.
Is this your plugin?
Prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and can put its remote endpoint on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from the Official MCP Registry (registry.modelcontextprotocol.io), CC0 1.0. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
