What you actually get
A card in a registry of 74,016 MCP servers, 12,743 connectors and 589,931 tools, rebuilt continuously and re-indexed daily, in front of 50,000 developers making over a million tool calls a month. Every server is graded on licence, quality and maintenance with a letter score, so the listing is a public verdict on your repository, not just a link. Servers are also claimable: about 2,546 currently are.
How to submit to Glama MCP Registry
1
Check whether you are already listed
They describe themselves as a superset of the official MCP Registry and index continuously, so a public server is often there before you submit anything. Search first.
2
Press Add Server
The control sits beside the sort dropdown on /mcp/servers, above the results.
3
Create an account
The Add Server control opens a sign-up modal with Google, GitHub and Discord as an unlabelled icon row, or an email route with a name field and an "I'm not a robot" checkbox.
4
Claim the listing
About 2,546 servers carry a Claimed attribute, which is a separate state from being indexed.
Glama MCP Registry requirements
A public repository for the MCP server
A licence, graded on every listing
An account (Google, GitHub, Discord, or email), to add or claim
A README and maintenance activity, both of which feed the letter gradesoptional
Gotchas
Every listing carries three public letter grades, for licence, quality and maintenance, computed from the repository. An unmaintained or unlicensed server gets a C in front of everyone who looks at it, and that is the listing.
Being indexed and being claimed are different states, and only about 2,546 of 74,016 servers are claimed, so a listing that exists is not a listing you control.
The email sign-up route ends in an "I'm not a robot" checkbox, so the account cannot be created end to end without a person.
