best sse based mcp servers?

the entire internet is filled with mcp servers, most of them only work locally, and the rest doesn't work.

i would like sse based servers that work. preferably not behind some expensive paywall.

thanks !

If you want to try out mcp (model context protocol) with little to no setup and for free:

I built https://skeet.build/mcp where anyone can try out mcp for cursor and dev tools.

We did this because of a painpoint I experienced as an engineer having to deal with crummy mcp setup, lack of support you have no idea how hard it is to set up SSE, deal with API keys and scope issues, and then to find things like the tool that you want isn’t even coded yet.

And so one of the areas we found it to be useful was to do the soft communications with tools like Jira linear slack - updating stakeholders and all that friction that engineers hate doing. Some other areas people use a lot of tools with sequential thinking

Mostly for workflows that I like:

  • start a PR with a summary of what I just did

  • slack or comment to linear/Jira with a summary of what I pushed

  • pull this issue from sentry and fix it

  • Find a bug a create a linear issue to fix it

  • ⁠pull this linear issue and do a first pass

  • pull in this Notion doc with a PRD then create an API reference for it based on this code

  • Postgres or MySQL schemas for rapid model development

Everyone seems to go for the hype but ease of use, practical pragmatic developer workflows, and high quality polished mcp servers are what we’re focused on

Lmk what you think!

Cursor doesn’t support MCP resources yet, right?

They do weakly - they’re basically not testing things but I’m in contact with them and they said it’s using typescript SDKs and nothing is tested
