⇱ MCP Hub - The npm for MCP Servers (Search, Install, Manage with One Command) - DEV Community

I've been working with MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and found the install/config process painful:

  1. Find the server on GitHub
  2. Read the docs to figure out the config
  3. Manually edit JSON config files for Claude Desktop / Cursor
  4. Repeat for every server

So I built MCP Hub - a CLI that does all of this in one command:

mcphub search database
mcphub install io.github.xxx/server-database

It queries the official MCP Registry, installs the server, and auto-configures your MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor). Config files are backed up before modification.

It also works as an MCP server

Add it to Claude Code and you can say "search for database MCP servers" in conversation:

go install github.com/Ricardo-M-L/mcphub/mcp@latest
claude mcp add mcphub mcphub-mcp

Features
