An MCP registry is a centralized catalog designed to manage connections and access for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. This system addresses the N×M integration problem, where direct connections between numerous agents and MCP servers create a complex web of individual configurations and credentials. By providing a single, authoritative source for server metadata, connection details, authentication, tool schemas, and access policies, an MCP registry simplifies tool discovery and automates credential rotation. This approach reduces the number of integration points from N×M to N+M, enhancing scalability and security for development teams. AI
