UI Registry MCP Server

Coding agents are great at logic and not so good at taste. Ask one to build a pricing page and it'll hand-roll a flat, generic card from memory - when there are thousands of beautiful, open-source components sitting one fetch away that too built by people who are great UI/UX experts. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting design tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install UI Registry

Claude Code

claude mcp add mrityunjay-tiwari-ui-registry-mcp -- npx -y ui-registry-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mrityunjay-tiwari-ui-registry-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ui-registry-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
