What is glama.json?

MCP server authors are able to claim ownership of their server listing on Glama by adding glama.json file to the root of the project GitHub repository.

Benefits of claiming MCP Server

Once you claim the server, you have access to the following features:

• Update your server's name, description, and other attributes
• Configure Docker image
• Access reports of server usage
• Receive notifications of reviews

Format of glama.json

A very simple glama.json file will contain just two properties: $schema and maintainers, e.g.,

Here is an example https://github.com/punkpeye/mcp-ping/blob/main/glama.json

punkpeye here is my GitHub username (https://github.com/punkpeye).

Syncing glama.json changes

After you've added or updated the glama.json file, you need to go through the Claim ownership flow again. This will trigger our service to pick up the latest changes.

Alternative ways for claiming MCP Server

Alternatively, if the GitHub repository is under your personal account, you can simply authenticate with GitHub. This will automatically associate your account with the server.

Frequent errors

If after adding a glama.json you are still not able to claim the ownership of the MCP Server page, then check the following:

• Ensure that you've added your GitHub username.
• Ensure that there are no syntax errors in glama.json.
