title Example Servers
description A list of example servers and implementations

This page showcases various Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that demonstrate the protocol's capabilities and versatility. These servers enable Large Language Models (LLMs) to securely access tools and data sources.

Reference implementations

These official reference servers demonstrate core MCP features and SDK usage:

Current reference servers

  • Everything - Reference / test server with prompts, resources, and tools
  • Fetch - Web content fetching and conversion for efficient LLM usage
  • Filesystem - Secure file operations with configurable access controls
  • Git - Tools to read, search, and manipulate Git repositories
  • Memory - Knowledge graph-based persistent memory system
  • Sequential Thinking - Dynamic and reflective problem-solving through thought sequences
  • Time - Time and timezone conversion capabilities

Additional example servers (archived)

Visit the servers-archived repository to get access to archived example servers that are no longer actively maintained.

They are provided for historical reference only.

Getting started

Using reference servers

TypeScript-based servers can be used directly with npx:

npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory

Python-based servers can be used with uvx (recommended) or pip:

# Using uvx
uvx mcp-server-git

# Using pip
pip install mcp-server-git
python -m mcp_server_git

    },
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem",
        "/path/to/allowed/files"
      ]
    },
    "github": {
      "command": "npx",
