Everything we measure right now, as plain CSV. Rebuilt every night, last on 22 September 2026. Take it, chart it, publish it, sell what you build on it — CC BY 4.0, the only thing we ask is a link back. Month by month we also publish the totals. Day-by-day history is not published: it is the one thing here that cannot be reconstructed later, and it is what the API is for.
Every remote endpoint gets a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. The file records what it answered and when we asked — not what its README claims.
Weekly downloads from npm and PyPI. Everyone else publishes GitHub stars, which say how many people liked a link, not how many run the thing.
Agent Skills are matched by content hash, so one skill repackaged into forty repositories counts once — with the number of copies in its own column.
Read this before you build on the numbers.
Local servers have no uptime. Roughly half the registry ships as an npm or PyPI package that the client starts on your machine. There is no address to ping, so those rows carry installs but empty uptime columns — that is missing data, not zero availability.
“Not responding” is not always broken. A server behind a corporate network or one that requires an API key answers our anonymous handshake with a refusal. We record the refusal honestly; it usually means the server is running and simply will not talk to strangers.
Uptime history starts when we did. The daily file begins on the day we ran the first check, not on the day the ecosystem appeared. It grows by one row a day and cannot be backfilled — by us or by anyone else.
curl -O https://mcpbeat.com/static/data/servers.csvAttribution is required. The files are free for anything — a blog post, a dashboard, a paper, a commercial product, a model trained on them. The one condition is a visible credit to mcpbeat with a working link to the source. That link is the whole price: these numbers cost fifteen minutes of checks each, every day, and the link is what pays for the next day of them.
Republishing a chart, a table or a single number counts. Copy this line as is:
Source: mcpbeat — https://mcpbeat.com/data/In HTML, an ordinary followed link is enough:
<a href="https://mcpbeat.com/">mcpbeat</a>. What the licence does not
allow is publishing the data as your own measurements, or stripping the credit and presenting
the files as a dataset of unknown origin. Full terms:

The same files, frozen each day. Current state is easy to copy — history is not: you had to be collecting it since August. Compressed only; tools are included on Mondays.
