Moving off Smithery: find your servers a new home
On Smithery stops its connection service:
server URLs on server.smithery.ai and run.tools, the Smithery CLI, its
API, and Smithery accounts and API keys stop working (Smithery's notice). Paste what you use today and get the same server from the Official MCP Registry, with what
to put in your client instead.
Find every Smithery entry you have
- Claude Desktop:
claude_desktop_config.json(Settings › Developer › Edit Config) and Settings › Connectors. - Claude Code: run
claude mcp list. - Cursor:
~/.cursor/mcp.json, and.cursor/mcp.jsonin each project. - VS Code:
.vscode/mcp.jsonin each workspace, and themcp.jsonof your user profile.
Every entry that names server.smithery.ai, run.tools or @smithery/cli needs a replacement. Paste each one above.
Questions
- Will my keys move?
- No. Smithery held them; set them again in your client.
- Where do these results come from?
- From the Official MCP Registry: a server's name, description and install details are what its publisher wrote there. We match a Smithery name to a registry server by its hosted URL, its repository, its website or its GitHub owner and name.
- Is plug.directory part of Smithery?
- No. plug.directory is not affiliated with Smithery.
