## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-10-02.

- **Endpoint Security**: 66/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 5 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe.
  - HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path.
  - The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present.
  - DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 80/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Tool/resource definitions use about 517 tokens (~103/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), lean.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 100/100
  - No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 6 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 60/100
  - Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28.

## Install

### How do I install the MCP Junction server?

MCP Junction is a hosted endpoint at https://mcpjunction.ai/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

### Claude

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http ai-mcpjunction-directory 'https://mcpjunction.ai/mcp'
```

### Cursor

## MCP tools (5)

### `search_servers` (~229 tokens)

Search the MCP server directory by keyword and/or filters. Keyword matches name, description, and GitHub topics. Returns active servers sorted by relevance then stars. Supply at least one of query, category, or topic — with no query, filters alone enumerate a whole category or topic by stars. Data refreshes nightly from the public GitHub API. Any install_hint is a best-effort guess from the repository language, not a verified command: relay the install_hint_caveat with it rather than presenting it as ready to run.

Input parameters:

- `category` (string): Optional category slug filter, e.g. 'databases' (see list_categories)
- `language` (string): Optional implementation language filter, e.g. 'Python'
- `limit` (integer): Max results (default 10)
- `query` (string): Keywords, e.g. 'postgres', 'browser automation'. Optional if category or topic is given.
- `topic` (string): Optional GitHub topic filter, exact match, e.g. 'kubernetes'. Any topic string works, not only the curated ones from list_topics.

### `get_server` (~101 tokens)

Get the full directory entry for one MCP server by id ('owner--repo', e.g. 'microsoft--playwright-mcp'). Includes install hint, license, stars, category, and editorial fields. Any install_hint is a best-effort guess from the repository language, not a verified command: relay the install_hint_caveat with it rather than presenting it as ready to run.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Server id in owner--repo form

### `list_categories` (~23 tokens)

List all directory categories with slugs, names, and active-server counts.

### `list_topics` (~63 tokens)

List the curated GitHub topics that have a directory page, with active-server counts. Topics are assigned by repository owners and imported verbatim, so the full dataset carries thousands of them; this returns only the curated subset. search_servers accepts any topic string, curated or not.

### `get_dataset_info` (~29 tokens)

Dataset metadata: entry counts, generation timestamp, source, and licensing terms for bulk or training use.

## Common questions

### What is the MCP Junction server?

MCP Junction is listed in the public MCP registry as ai.mcpjunction/directory. Search a nightly-refreshed directory of MCP servers by keyword, category or topic. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcpjunction.ai/mcp).

### Is the MCP Junction server safe to use?

MCP Junction scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the MCP Junction server expose?

MCP Junction exposes 5 tools: search_servers, get_server, list_categories, list_topics, get_dataset_info. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 445 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Does the MCP Junction server require authentication?

No. We connected to MCP Junction without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

### Is the MCP Junction server still maintained?

MCP Junction is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 2 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
