Awesome Remote MCP Servers

A curated list of high-quality remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that works with Highlight out of the box. This repository focuses on listing official and well-maintained MCP servers that can be accessed over the internet, helping developers discover reliable and production-ready services for their AI applications.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a protocol that enables AI models to interact with external tools and resources. Remote MCP servers allow clients to securely connect to these services over the internet.

This is not an exhaustive list of all remote MCP servers. We maintain high standards for inclusion:

• Official Support: Servers that are maintained by their underlying companies are preferred
• Production Ready: Must be stable and suitable for production use
• Active Maintenance: Regular updates and bug fixes
• Security: Proper authentication and security measures, with OAuth 2.0 support required
• Reliability: Proven track record of uptime and performance
• Community: Active user community and support channels

Note from Highlight Team: As the MCP spec is still in development, not all clients may support all features. In particular client support of OAuth is not yet widespread. If your client supports please contribute. Make sure to keep alphatical order.

To use remote MCP servers that requires auth you need to use mcp-remote. Make sure you have Node.js installed in your computer. For desktop clients the configuration you need to add to your client's config file will be like this;

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "<REMOTE_MCP_SERVER_NAME>": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "<REMOTE_MCP_SERVER_URL>"
      ]
    }
  }
}
