Coding agent starter stack
Most people who wire MCP into Claude Code, Cursor or Codex end up with the same handful of servers: one for the code host, one for files, a browser so the agent can check its own UI work, and a database. Each list below is the best-ranked servers for that job in our catalog, by documentation, activity, stars and downloads.
Code hosting
Read issues, review pull requests and check CI without leaving the editor.
