The 15 best TypeScript MCP servers

The 15 TypeScript MCP servers worth your time, out of 6,189 we track - actively maintained, with real adoption, ranked on monthly installs, GitHub stars, and commit recency. Checked nightly.

TypeScript is the language the MCP SDK grew up in, so the deepest client support and the most battle-tested servers live here. Expect first-class npm installs and configs that paste straight into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code.

How to choose between them

Playwright MCP tops the list - the most installs (25,988,876 last month) and actively maintained. 1 of these 15 offers a remote endpoint (no local process to run); the rest are local stdio servers. 12 document no required env vars - paste the config and go; the others need env vars set first (each page lists exactly which). Where we've compared two of these head-to-head, the comparison is linked on each one's page.
