Trust verdict
How grades are computed →Grade A (94/100, reliable) from 1 measured signal, based on repository evidence. Only one signal stands behind it, so treat the grade as provisional.
What was measured
- Repository maintenance100/100 · weight 20
The repository has been pushed to or released within the last six months. — last push 2026-07-21, last release 2026-05-29 (v1.5.1).
- Source verification100/100 · weight 25
The repository URL was confirmed to resolve against the live GitHub API and is not archived.
- Provenance65/100 · weight 10
Community-built. That is not a mark against it — most of the ecosystem is community-built — but there is no vendor accountable for keeping it working.
- Listing ↔ repository match100/100 · weight 5
The listing name lines up with the linked repository ie3jp/illustrator-mcp-server.
What could not be measured
These contributed nothing to the score — not a penalty, not a zero. They are why the confidence reads the way it does.
- Live MCP handshakeunknown
No remote endpoint to handshake — this server installs and runs locally over stdio, so there is nothing to probe from the outside.
- Measured uptimeunknown
No probe history recorded for this server yet.
- Tool-schema stabilityunknown
Drift is a difference between two successive checks, and this server has none recorded.

Figma MCP Server
There are three different Figma MCP servers and the install command on most listings belongs to the one Figma no longer leads with, so start with which you are choosing. **Figma's recommended server is now the hosted remote one at `https://mcp.figma.com/mcp`** — nothing to install, OAuth in the client, attached with `claude mcp add --transport http figma https://mcp.figma.com/mcp`. It is also the only one with the write and cross-file tools (`use_figma`, `generate_figma_design`, `generate_diagram`, `create_new_file`, `search_design_system`, asset upload and download). **The Dev Mode desktop server ships inside the Figma Desktop app** — enable it in Dev Mode (Shift+D) from the MCP server section of the inspect panel and the app opens a local endpoint at `http://127.0.0.1:3845/mcp`. Figma's docs now describe the desktop server as being for specific organisation and enterprise cases and recommend the remote one instead. Because it runs in the app, it reads whatever you have selected on the canvas: exact colors, typography, spacing, auto-layout constraints, component variants, and — the part a token-based reader cannot do — your Code Connect mappings, so it emits your component names rather than generic divs. It requires a Dev or Full seat on a paid plan and the desktop app must be open. The repository linked here is `figma/mcp-server-guide`, Figma's own setup guide; Figma does not publish the server's source. **The community alternative is Figma-Context-MCP by GLips** (15,500+ stars), installed as `npx figma-developer-mcp --figma-api-key=YOUR_FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN`. It authenticates with a Personal Access Token from Figma Settings → Personal Access Tokens and calls the REST API, so it needs no desktop app, works headlessly in CI, and can read any file your account can open — including from a free plan. It exposes the document JSON, node lookup by ID, component listing, text extraction, and rendered-image download. The practical split: pick the official server when design-to-code fidelity and Code Connect matter and you are already paying for Dev Mode; pick GLips when you need automation, a free plan, or a machine with no Figma app installed. Both let an assistant translate a frame into accurate React, Tailwind, or plain HTML/CSS instead of guessing from a screenshot.
YouTube MCP Server
The YouTube MCP Server by Zubeid Hendricks connects AI assistants to the full YouTube Data API v3, letting Claude search videos, pull transcripts, manage content, and run analytics without leaving the conversation. It is one of the most complete community YouTube MCP servers, exposing tools across several areas: video management (search by keyword, retrieve metadata, get statistics, and list a channel's uploads), transcript retrieval (fetch full captions for any public video for summarization or Q&A), channel operations (look up channel details, subscriber and view counts, and recent activity), playlist tools (list and inspect playlist contents), Shorts creation workflows, and advanced analytics for creators tracking performance. Authentication uses a single YOUTUBE_API_KEY obtained free from the Google Cloud Console by enabling the YouTube Data API v3 — read-heavy operations fit comfortably inside the daily quota. Install globally with npm as zubeid-youtube-mcp-server, run it directly with npx (no install required), or add it through Smithery for one-click Claude Desktop setup; a Docker image is also provided for HTTP transport. The YouTube MCP Server is ideal for content research, competitive analysis, transcript-based summarization, and automated creator workflows — Claude can, for example, find the top videos on a topic, fetch their transcripts, and synthesize a briefing in a single pass.
Spotify MCP Server
Marcel Marais's Spotify MCP Server is a lightweight TypeScript bridge between AI assistants and the Spotify Web API, letting Claude control playback and search a listener's library through natural language. It exposes tools for searching tracks/albums/artists/playlists, controlling playback (play, pause, skip, queue management), reading and modifying the current queue, and browsing a user's playlists and saved library. Authentication uses standard Spotify OAuth (client ID/secret from the Spotify Developer Dashboard) with a one-time login flow to obtain a refresh token, after which the server runs locally via the MCP stdio transport. Typical use: ask Claude to "queue up some upbeat workout music" or "what's currently playing," and it calls the Spotify API directly rather than requiring the user to switch to the Spotify app.

ElevenLabs MCP Server
The official ElevenLabs MCP server (elevenlabs/elevenlabs-mcp) connects AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and OpenAI Agents directly to ElevenLabs' text-to-speech and audio-processing APIs. Once installed, an AI client can generate natural-sounding speech from text in dozens of voices and languages, clone a voice from a short audio sample, design and save new synthetic voices to a personal voice library, transcribe spoken audio with automatic speaker diarization, isolate vocals from background noise, and compose layered soundscapes (e.g. "a thunderstorm in a dense jungle with animals reacting") from a text prompt. It also exposes ElevenLabs' Conversational AI agent-creation tools, so a client can spin up a voice agent with a defined persona and have it answer questions in character. Install via PyPI/uv with `uvx elevenlabs-mcp` and an `ELEVENLABS_API_KEY` from the ElevenLabs dashboard — the free tier includes 10k credits/month, enough for testing. Optional environment variables (`ELEVENLABS_MCP_BASE_PATH`, `ELEVENLABS_MCP_OUTPUT_MODE`) control whether generated audio is saved to disk, returned as base64-encoded MCP resources for containerized/serverless environments, or both, and `ELEVENLABS_API_RESIDENCY` supports enterprise data-residency requirements. With 1,450+ GitHub stars, it is the most widely adopted way to give an AI coding assistant real audio-generation capabilities without hand-rolling API calls.
