command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "claude-octopus"]
[mcp_servers.claude-octopus.env]
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY = "<YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY>"{
"mcpServers": {
"claude-octopus": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"claude-octopus"
],
"env": {
"ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "<YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY>"
}
}

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?
Add it to your projects and 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 its remote endpoint goes 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.
