Verification

After installing any server, verify with:

claude mcp list

Resources

What's inside

13 tool sections, each with install commands and prerequisites, plus a verification step and resource links.

Change this for your project

Replace your_github_pat with your GitHub personal access token
Replace /path/to/service-account-key.json with your GCP key path
Replace your-project-id with your GCP project ID
Replace your-integration-token with your Notion API token

Where it goes

A prompt collection. Copy the individual prompts you need rather than the whole file.

Worth borrowing

Grouping MCP servers by domain (productivity, cloud, design) for quick scanning
Offering both remote and local install options for each server
Including a verification command to confirm setup succeeded
