About

This repository contains the official reference implementations for MCP servers, maintained by Anthropic. Each server implements the Model Context Protocol, exposing tools and resources that Claude and other MCP clients can call.

Reference servers serve as both practical tools and implementation examples. Adding any server to Claude Desktop takes two lines in claude_desktop_config.json and gives Claude direct access to that system.
