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.
