This is a curated map of the MCP ecosystem: the projects, tools, and resources worth knowing after you have built and shipped your first servers.Let's create the largest and most comprehensive list of Model Context Protocol (MCP) resources.

📚 LLM Prompt Engineering For Developers Book

LLM Prompt Engineering For Developers - The Art and Science of Unlocking LLMs' True Potential. Example of what others say about it:

"Such a comprehensive view over Prompt Engineering. It is hard to find a book of this quality and depth covering what is a very emergent field." ~ MR G STEWART (Amazon Review).

Note: Only add developers' tools, frameworks, and resources that are relevant to the MCP ecosystem.

Notes

This is not just a list of MCP servers. It's a list of tools and resources for developers and engineers building MCP applications.

Specification and Official Resources

• Model Context Protocol specification - the canonical spec, concepts, and transport definitions. Read this before trusting any third-party explainer.
• MCP GitHub organization - SDKs, reference servers, the inspector, the registry, and the docs, all in one place.
• MCP blog - protocol release candidates, registry announcements, and governance updates. The fastest way to learn what changed.
• MCP Inspector - the official GUI for connecting to a server and exercising its tools, resources, and prompts by hand. Your first debugging stop.

Learning Resources

• Official MCP documentation - tutorials, concept guides, and the client and server build walkthroughs, kept current with the spec.
• FastMCP documentation - deep, example-driven docs for the framework used throughout this book.
• DeepWiki - AI-generated, browsable documentation for MCP repositories, handy for orienting yourself in an unfamiliar codebase fast.
• Reference servers - the official educational implementations (filesystem, fetch, memory, and more), maintained to demonstrate SDK usage and protocol features cleanly.
• Practical MCP with FastMCP & LangChain - A hands-on course for engineers done with demos: build production-grade MCP servers, clients, and middleware with FastMCP and LangChain, from first principles through human-in-the-loop flows, progress and sampling, RAG, and stateful deployment, capped by a full PostgreSQL and Redis analytics system.

Newsletters and Communities

• AILinks: Generative AI is changing everything, and most of the coverage is noise. We cut through it - one weekly issue packed with the most relevant tools, research, and news in AI and machine learning, with a take you won't find anywhere else.

Server Frameworks and SDKs

Open Source

• FastMCP - the Pythonic, high-level way to build servers and clients, and the framework this book is built around. Docs at gofastmcp.com.
• Python SDK - the official low-level Python implementation. FastMCP's foundations were upstreamed here.
• TypeScript SDK - official, runs on Node.js, Bun, and Deno. The reference implementation for the JavaScript world.
• Go SDK - official, maintained in collaboration with Google.
• C# SDK - official .NET SDK, maintained with Microsoft.
• Java SDK and Spring AI MCP - official Java support, with Spring AI providing the higher-level integration.
• mcp-framework - a TypeScript framework with automatic tool discovery and multi-transport support, aiming to fill the ergonomic gap that FastMCP fills in Python.

Gateways and Proxies

Open Source

• Klavis - a Y Combinator-backed platform offering 50+ hosted MCP servers with enterprise OAuth, so agents reach tools like GitHub, Slack, and Gmail reliably at scale. Apache 2.0.
• agentgateway - a Rust data-plane gateway with native MCP and A2A support, JWT and OAuth, tool-level RBAC, and OpenTelemetry tracing. A Linux Foundation project contributed by Solo.io, with Envoy and Istio roots.
• Unla - a lightweight Go gateway that turns existing REST, gRPC, or WebSocket APIs and MCP servers into MCP endpoints through configuration alone, with a management UI.
• AIRIS MCP Gateway - a Docker-based multiplexer that collapses many tools behind a handful of meta-tools (find, exec, schema, route, and others), using progressive disclosure to cut context tokens, with server lifecycle states and circuit breaking.
• Docker MCP Gateway - runs MCP servers as isolated containers with credential injection and restricted privileges by default. Ships with Docker Desktop's MCP Toolkit.
• IBM ContextForge - a gateway, registry, and proxy that federates MCP, A2A, and REST or gRPC behind one endpoint, with a plugin system, virtual servers, and OpenTelemetry. Strong community traction.
• Jetski - from hyprmcp, adds OAuth 2.1, dynamic client registration, real-time logging, and prompt visibility to existing MCP servers with no code changes.
• MCPJungle - a self-hostable gateway and registry that centralizes many servers behind one endpoint, with tool groups, access control, and audit trails. A sensible default for small to medium teams.
• MCPO - not a router but an MCP-to-OpenAPI proxy that exposes any MCP server as a REST endpoint, so non-MCP clients (Open WebUI and others) can use it. The most popular option for personal setups.
• Gate22 - a gateway and control plane from Aipotheosis Labs (ACI.dev) that lets teams govern which tools agents may call, expose curated bundles through a single search-and-execute endpoint, and audit every use.
• hyper-mcp - a fast, security-minded MCP server whose capabilities are WebAssembly plugins distributed as signed OCI images, runnable from the edge to IoT.
• mcpproxy-go - a lightweight local proxy that fronts many servers through one endpoint, adding BM25 tool search, activity logs, a quarantine security mode, and a web UI.
• Kuadrant MCP Gateway - an Envoy- and Istio-based gateway that applies Kubernetes policy-attachment for authentication, authorization, and rate limiting to MCP traffic.
• Lasso MCP Gateway -
