mcp-grafana is the first-party (Grafana Labs) MCP server that bridges LLM assistants to a Grafana instance. Vendor-described scope: "access to your Grafana instance and the surrounding ecosystem," exposing 100+ tools across dashboards (search/get/update, JSONPath extraction), datasources (Prometheus, Loki, ClickHouse, CloudWatch, Elasticsearch and more), alerting (rules, routing, contact points), Grafana Incident/OnCall, query execution (PromQL, LogQL, SQL), admin, PNG rendering, and annotations. Many high-privilege tools are disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled by flag — a sensible least-privilege posture for an observability-connected agent. Authentication uses a Grafana service-account token (or username/password) via environment variables; the README states credentials are never logged. It is genuinely free and Apache-2.0, and being first-party it tracks Grafana's own API surface. The main risk to weigh is granting an LLM read/write reach into production dashboards and alert config, so scope the service-account token carefully.
Grafana MCP Server
First-party MCP server for querying and managing Grafana
Grafana's official Model Context Protocol server, letting AI assistants search dashboards, query datasources, and manage alerts/incidents on your Grafana instance through a standard MCP interface.
Pricing
Free and open-source (Apache-2.0). No license or usage fees; you supply your own Grafana instance and credentials.
Platforms
Install via uvx, pre-built binaries, Docker, Kubernetes/Helm, or Go source. Transports: stdio (local, Claude Desktop), SSE (Docker default), streamable-HTTP (multi-client). Cross-platform.

MCP Registry
Official open catalog of Model Context Protocol servers
The official, community-run registry for discovering and publishing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers — an open index that MCP clients read to find available servers.
Figma Console MCP
Turn a Figma design system into a programmable API for AI assistants
Figma Console MCP is open-source design-system infrastructure that exposes Figma to AI assistants through MCP. It supports structured extraction, design creation and editing, debugging, accessibility audits, and bidirectional design-token workflows across local, remote read-only, and paired cloud modes; it is not a generic one-click Figma-to-code exporter.
MCP Context Forge
IBM-backed ContextForge gateway for federating MCP, A2A, REST, and gRPC APIs
MCP Context Forge is IBM’s Apache-2.0 ContextForge project for operating a gateway, registry, and proxy across MCP servers, A2A agents, REST APIs, and gRPC services. It centralizes discovery, authentication, policy controls, federation, and observability, with deployment paths through PyPI, Docker, and Kubernetes.
n8n-MCP
Community MCP server for n8n node knowledge, workflow drafting, and validation
n8n-MCP is an independent, MIT-licensed community server that gives MCP-compatible assistants structured access to n8n node documentation, properties, templates, and workflow validation helpers. It is distinct from the existing n8n product page and covers the MCP layer used from clients such as Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and Codex.
MCP for Unity
Open-source MCP bridge between AI assistants and the Unity Editor
MCP for Unity is CoplayDev’s MIT-licensed bridge between MCP-compatible AI assistants and the Unity Editor. It exposes tools for assets, scenes, GameObjects, scripts, tests, profiling, and build-oriented workflows. The community project supports Unity 2021.3 LTS through 6.x and is explicitly not affiliated with Unity Technologies.
XcodeBuildMCP
Sentry-maintained MCP server and CLI for Xcode builds, simulators, and tests
XcodeBuildMCP is a Sentry-maintained, MIT-licensed MCP server and CLI for agent-assisted iOS and macOS development. It lets MCP-compatible coding agents run Xcode build and test workflows, manage simulators, inspect failures, and work through Homebrew, npm, or on-demand client configuration, with documented Sentry telemetry controls for teams that need an opt-out.
