📌 Update, Oct 2026: how onboarding works (community notes)This thread became the place to request listing on github.com/mcp. These notes collect what's been said here. The process (based on the accepted answer, @trent-j, May 2026):
Include all of these in your request:

39 days, no response. claude-faf-mcp is approved by Anthropic (PR #2759 MERGED), has 10,067+ npm downloads, but isn't visible on github.com/mcp despite being listed in modelcontextprotocol/servers. What are the curation criteria for github.com/mcp? Is there a separate approval process beyond the Anthropic PR? Links: |

Hey @Wolfe-Jam,
right now the GitHub MCP registry is a curated list. This will change in a couple days when we enable sync with the open source registry. In order to get your server added, you have to publish it to the open source registry first. Here is a guide how to publish your server if you haven't done it already.

Hey @hstaudacher - following up from November. Just published both FAF packages to the open source registry today:
Ready for sync whenever that goes live. If there's anything blocking the registry sync rollout, happy to help test, validate, or contribute. We've been through the mcp-publisher flow and can provide feedback if useful. |
|
Hey @hstaudacher — friendly follow-up from the November conversation about registry sync. Quick update on where things stand: we now have 6 FAF MCP servers published to the open source registry, all passing
All published via You mentioned back in November that github.com/mcp would start syncing from the open source registry. Is that sync live now? If so, is there something on our end we need to do to appear? If it's still in progress, totally understand — just want to make sure we're not missing a step. Happy to help test or validate anything on the sync pipeline. |
|
Status check, 2026-05-18: github.com/mcp still shows ~97 servers, so the open-source-registry sync doesn't look live yet. The FAF servers remain published & schema-clean on the OSS registry. If the list stays curated long-term: Is there an ETA for the sync, or is github.com/mcp staying curated? Either answer's fine — closing the loop on this thread. |

Hi @Wolfe-Jam, thanks for the thoughtful follow-up and for continuing to publish and validate your servers. A few clarifications from our side: the GitHub MCP Registry now has the ability to sync versions from the open source registry, but onboarding a new server is still a manual curation process today. Once a server has been onboarded, newly published versions from the OSS registry should sync from there. I’m closer to the technical side than the product/curation criteria, so I don’t want to overstate anything here. I’ll share your request with our product team and ask whether we’re able to move forward with onboarding them. Thanks again for your patience, and for offering to help validate the sync path. |

Hey @trent-j — thanks again for looking into this and for offering to take it to the product team, genuinely appreciate it. Quick update from our side: since May we've moved our two flagship servers to the FAF Foundation's DNS-verified No rush at all on the github.com/mcp side — mostly I'd love to understand the lay of the land so we can be ready: is onboarding/sync something that's moving, or staying curated for now? And if there's a process, criteria, or anything we should prep on our end to make it easy when the time comes, happy to do the legwork. Either way — thanks for keeping the channel open. 🙏 |

Unified AI System is an Apache-2.0 self-hosted gateway that gives Codex, Cursor, Cline, and generic MCP clients nine bounded tools. Its differentiating first-run path turns rough natural-language requests into structured, reviewable prompts locally, with a deterministic fake provider and no account or API key required. Real provider calls remain explicit and disabled by default.
The repository publishes pinned OCI images and runs public CI, container, MCP discovery, security-scanner, clean-clone, and process-cleanup checks. The Official Registry currently contains versions 0.3.1 through 0.4.8; GitHub MCP search still returns no result.
Please consider onboarding this server so future Official Registry versions can sync. I am happy to provide any additional metadata or validation evidence the curation team needs.

Onboarding request: Following the OSS-registry-first process confirmed in this thread (publish to the open source registry, then request manual onboarding; versions sync after):
Derive gives agent output a permanent home. One call publishes a document, styled page, deck, or report to a versioned URL a teammate can open and comment on inline; the agent reads those comments back and revises. Every tool carries a title and honest Nothing to install and no key to paste — it is a remote server behind OAuth with dynamic client registration.
