Show HN: MCP Manager – Open-Source CLI to Manage Your MCP Servers

Hi HN! I'm Noah, an ordinary guy that got really interested in MCP about a month ago when I downloaded Cursor. It's been super exciting to see companies around the world launch their own MCP servers empowering AI to do more.

Unfortunately, I got a bit overwhelmed setting up MCP servers across my clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code, so I figured I'd take a shot at building an open-source tool to help others and myself!

So yeah, I built a CLI tool that enables you to quickly get MCP servers from the Web integrated with your clients like Cursor and Claude Desktop. You can use the built-in MCP servers I've defined like Playwright, Github, etc and add your own configurations!

Feel free to support me too. PRs are welcome!

Thanks for reading this and have a great day!

Super cool, we built a similar one for our MCP because we were unhappy with the MCP management experience. Ours allows you to manage your tools, the MCPs "focus" (what project it is looking at" and your hosts.

Great work! Where does it source MCP servers from when searching?

    Thanks! I manually added the first MCP servers to the repo itself. No database - first seeing if this idea resonates with folks. You can fork the repo and add more MCP servers or create a Github issue and I'd be happy to look into it for you.

so i watched the video and see fetch to get the current time in the UK. Can you give some other use case examples?

    Yep, the MCP servers I've supported out the gate include Github, Playwright, Git, Filesystem, etc so you can do things like

    1. Have Claude Desktop perform actions on your behalf in Github (e.g. search code, search PRs, create repos, create PRs) 2. Have Cursor browse the web for you to integrate realtime Web info into context for code changes 3. Have Claude Desktop use information stored locally in your files to answer questions
