# MCP Census and mcp.so

mcp.so is a community directory for discovering MCP servers. The MCP Census checks public evidence and returns PASS, REVIEW, BLOCK, or UNKNOWN. A directory listing is not that decision.

Their FAQ says: “mcp.so is a community-driven platform that collects and organizes third-party MCP Servers.” The homepage also says “Discover useful MCP servers” and lists clients, CLI tools, and agent skills, not only servers.

The pages read on 15 October 2026 did not name a company. This page does not invent one.

Their FAQ says you submit a server by opening a GitHub issue. Census /submit queues a missing server for an evidence check. It does not feature it.

Their FAQ answers a general question about the MCP protocol. That answer is theirs. The Census does not treat it as a verdict on any listed server, and does not say a server is safe to run.

docs.mcp.so did not return its article through the bot check on this date, so this page does not describe hosting rules from those docs.
