MCP server requirements

What each of these MCP servers needs before it will run, and how it signs in. "Local" servers run on your computer; "Hosted" servers are run by the maker, so there is nothing to install. Click a column header to sort. Every row links to the listing, which has install snippets for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and Codex.
