Update all documentation to reference the stable `/v0.1/` API version instead of the development `/v0/` version. Didn't update internal references (e.g. in admin-only docs) as that probably make sense to keep pointed at v0 as the "dev" option.

# Generic Registry API Specification
|
|
|
|
A standardized RESTful HTTP API for MCP registries to provide consistent endpoints for discovering and retrieving MCP servers.
|
|
|
|
Also see:
|
|
- For authentication and authorization, see the [registry authorization specification](./registry-authorization.md).
|
|
|
|
## Browse the Complete API Specification
|
|
|
|
**📋 View the full API specification interactively**: Open [openapi.yaml](./openapi.yaml) in an OpenAPI viewer like [Stoplight Elements](https://elements-demo.stoplight.io/?spec=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/refs/heads/main/docs/reference/api/openapi.yaml).
|
|
|
|
The official registry has some more endpoints and restrictions on top of this. See the [official registry API spec](./official-registry-api.md) for details.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Reference
|
|
|
|
### Core Endpoints
|
|
- **`GET /v0.1/servers`** - List all servers with pagination
|
|
- **`GET /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions`** - List all versions of a server
|
|
- **`GET /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}`** - Get specific version of server. Use the special version `latest` to get the latest version.
|
|
- **`POST /v0.1/publish`** - Publish new server (optional, registry-specific authentication)
|
|
- **`DELETE /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}`** - Delete specific server version (optional, not implemented by official registry)
|
|
|
|
Server names and version strings should be URL-encoded in paths.
|
|
|
|
### Authentication
|
|
|
|
No authentication required by default. Subregistries may optionally require authentication following the [registry authorization specification](./registry-authorization.md).
|
|
|
|
### Content Type
|
|
All requests and responses use `application/json`
|
|
|
|
### Pagination
|
|
List endpoints use cursor-based pagination for efficient, stable results.
|
|
|
|
#### Usage
|
|
1. **Initial request**: Omit the `cursor` parameter
|
|
2. **Subsequent requests**: Use the `nextCursor` value from the previous response
|
|
3. **End of results**: When `nextCursor` is null or empty, there are no more results
|
|
|
|
**Important**: Always treat cursors as opaque strings. Never manually construct or modify cursor values.
|
|
|
|
### Basic Example: List Servers
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl https://registry.example.com/v0.1/servers?limit=10
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"servers": [
|
|
{
|
|
"server": {
|
|
"name": "io.modelcontextprotocol/filesystem",
|
|
"description": "Filesystem operations server",
|
|
"version": "1.0.2"
|
|
},
|
|
"_meta": {
|
|
"io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official": {
|
|
"status": "active",
|
|
"publishedAt": "2025-01-01T10:30:00Z",
|
|
"isLatest": true
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"metadata": {
|
|
"count": 10,
|
|
"nextCursor": "com.example/my-server:1.0.0"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
