Agent Discover MCP Server
MCP server registry and marketplace. Discover, install, activate, and manage MCP tools on demand. Acts as a dynamic proxy -- activated servers have their tools merged into the registry's own tool list, so agents can use them without restarting. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting database tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
