punkpeye/awesome-mcp-servers Crosses 88K Stars as MCP Directory Sprawl Accelerates

GitHub·medium signal

The punkpeye/awesome-mcp-servers list has reached ~88,651 stars, one of several directories now indexing 1,200+ verified MCP servers. The remote-MCP ecosystem alone grew from 16 servers in January to 25+ by April 2026, with Atlassian, HubSpot, Linear, Slack, Sentry, Neon, and Vercel all standing up remote endpoints. The scale is a double-edged adoption signal given concurrent findings that ~40% of remote servers expose tools with no authentication.
