What you actually get
A versioned listing in a marketplace of 89,010 MCP servers ranked by activity, stability and community feedback, with install counts and GitHub stars shown per entry and a PREMIUM or quality grade beside the name. Because publishing is a CLI release rather than a form, the listing carries versions and can be updated properly instead of going stale.
How to submit to LobeHub MCP Marketplace
1
Read their publishing skill
https://lobehub.com/publish-mcp/skill.md is an Agent Skill describing the whole flow, and fetching it returns the file with every reference appended in one request.
2
Install the CLI
@lobehub/market-cli on npm, requiring Node.js 22 or later. Their docs are explicit that you should never make raw HTTP calls: authentication is OIDC PKCE with automatic token refresh and the CLI handles it.
3
Log in and connect GitHub
Login is browser OIDC; GitHub is connected separately because that is how ownership of the repository is verified.
4
Write the manifest and publish
An lhm.plugin.json in the repository describes the listing, and the CLI publishes a version from it. Claiming an existing plugin is a separate command.
LobeHub MCP Marketplace requirements
A GitHub repository for the server
Node.js 22 or later and the @lobehub/market-cli package
An lhm.plugin.json manifest
An agent that can run the CLI, since they publish a skill for exactly thatoptional
Gotchas
There is no submit form. /mcp/submit errors out, and the only supported route is a CLI release from a GitHub repository, so this is a developer workflow rather than a listing form.
Ownership is verified through a connected GitHub account, so a server you did not publish yourself has to be claimed rather than added.
The CLI needs Node.js 22 or later, which is a real gate on an older machine and is not mentioned anywhere on the marketplace page.
