Each page on appsgit lists the environment variables a MCP server expects. ### Which AI clients work with these MCP servers? Claude Code (all), Claude Desktop (all), Cursor (all) and VS Code (all). The client list comes from each project's published transport and package data; appsgit does not guess it. ### Are any of these MCP servers official? None of the picks is published by the vendor itself; they are community projects. ### How do I install an MCP server? Local servers run as a command such as npx, uvx or docker run that you add to your client's MCP configuration; remote servers only need their URL. Every server page on appsgit has ready-made snippets for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. ## Related questions - [What are the best MCP servers for developer tools?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-developer-tools) - [What are the best MCP servers for web browsing and scraping?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-web-browsing-scraping) - [What are the best MCP servers for productivity?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-productivity) - [What are the best MCP servers for cloud and DevOps?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-cloud-devops) - [What are the best MCP servers for data and analytics?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-data-analytics) - [What are the best MCP servers for communication?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-communication) - [What are the best MCP servers for finance?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-finance) - [What are the best MCP servers for AI search and memory?](https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-ai-search-memory) ## See also - [Databases MCP servers](https://appsgit.com/mcp-servers/category/databases) - [All MCP servers](https://appsgit.com/mcp-servers) - [Trending MCP servers](https://appsgit.com/mcp-servers/trending) - [Official MCP servers](https://appsgit.com/mcp-servers/official) --- Canonical page: https://appsgit.com/best/mcp-servers-for-databases Source: appsgit (https://appsgit.com), the app store for github.
