Prestigious-Web-2968 · reddit · 2026-09-22
A developer launched MCP Index, an independent ranking of MCP servers by quality and popularity, graded with letter grades based on reach, speed, tools, and spec compliance, with a public methodology.
- Verifies how MCPs perform across major hosts, their tool coverage, and whether descriptions align with schemas
- MCP developers can submit for free to get independently verified scores and a showcase badge (Product Hunt-style)
- Shows how MCPs are accessed by different hosts from residential devices
- For users, it doubles as a comprehensive, independent MCP library
The project is still in progress and the author is soliciting feedback.
