shadcn/ui

Official
byshadcn

shadcn's official MCP server, bundled into the shadcn CLI itself (`npx shadcn@latest mcp init --client claude`). Lets AI agents interact with the shadcn component registry — search for components, add them to your project, manage themes, and pull from private or third-party registries. Same source repo as the CLI (shadcn-ui/ui, 115k stars) and ships in the same release cycle.
