## About

After payment you add a description, documentation and setup steps, then publish. The launch is an annual listing subscription with the price shown at checkout. It includes a dedicated listing page with a link back to your website, 4 days on the homepage, and launch posts on X and LinkedIn. The MCP must be a public Model Context Protocol server that meets the listing guidelines. Traffic is not guaranteed.
