# Find MCP servers in the public registry

**Use case:** 

Searches the MCP server registry and returns each server with its stars, last-update date, topics and a trust score, so a client can be pointed at servers that are actually maintained rather than abandoned.

## Input

```json
{
  "topics": [],
  "activeOnly": true,
  "minTrustScore": 0,
  "minStars": 10,
  "includeArchived": false,
  "maxPages": 3,
  "maxItems": 2000
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "fullName": {
    "label": "Repository",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "trustScore": {
    "label": "Trust score",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "maintenanceHealth": {
    "label": "Maintenance health",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "abandonmentRisk": {
    "label": "Risk",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "daysSincePush": {
    "label": "Days since push",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "transport": {
    "label": "Transport",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "installMethod": {
    "label": "Install",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "language": {
    "label": "Language",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "stars": {
    "label": "Stars",
    "format": "integer"
  },
  "license": {
    "label": "License",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",
    "format": "string"
  }
}
```

### 2. Start the "Find MCP servers in the public registry" task

The MCP Server Registry — Health & Trust Scores Actor will start running based on the input automatically. You can also change all the input fields, like github topics to search, only actively maintained servers, and more, to match your specific use case.

### 3. Receive the "Find MCP servers in the public registry" output

Monitor the progress in real time. You will be notified as soon as your dataset is complete and ready for review. Each result includes data such as repository, trust score, maintenance health, and more.

### 4. Integrate into your workflow

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [MCP Server Registry — Health & Trust Scores](https://apify.com/alaudinburki/mcp-server-registry.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/alaudinburki/mcp-server-registry.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/alaudinburki/mcp-server-registry.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
