7Maps and other MCP status and directory services
What each service states on its own public pages, row by row, with the page and the date it was checked. Where another service does more, the table says so.
7Maps never sells placement. Rankings come only from live checks and real use.
The facts, with sources
Each row repeats what the named page said when it was checked. Services change; the source link is the authority.

|---|---|---|
| 7Maps | Maps every remote server in the official MCP registry plus servers owners add: over 45,000 servers checked.

| 7Maps | Checks every server once a day with initialize and tools/list, plus server/discover for its protocol revisions (no tool is called); the most used servers again every hour; servers whose owner verified them every 5 minutes (up to 3 per owner). | 7it.co.il/7maps/claim/ 2026-10-03 |
| 7Maps | Gives each tool an automated risk estimate (read-only, changes data or high risk), records the days a tool list changed, and signs each day's files with Ed25519, chained to the day before. History since 2026-10-02. | 7it.co.il/.well-known/7maps.json 2026-10-03 |
