What is MCP Registry?
mcp.run is a registry of pre-built MCP servers. Instead of building your own REST connector or custom MCP, use existing implementations. Examples:- Airtable - Spreadsheet operations
- GitHub - Repository management
- Linear - Issue tracking
- Notion - Database operations
- Slack - Chat and messaging

Example: Slack
- Create app at https://api.slack.com/apps
- Get Bot Token (starts with
xoxb-) - Paste in connector setup
- Grant necessary permissions
