Discovery for MCP is still an unsettled question. An adjacent protocol, A2A, has proposed using /.well-known for discovery. At the rate things are moving this won't be a problem for too much longer.

But yes, currently, you still need to read the docs to know if/where on my server you can find an MCP endpoint.

Adding a link for A2A (https://developers.googleblog.com/en/a2a-a-new-era-of-agent-...)

Also I believe there are some open source directories and Anthropic themselves are planning to launch or have launched a directory, so an NPM for MCPs.
