Request: Delete server io.github.mctx-ai/example-mcp-server

Deletion Request

Server name: io.github.mctx-ai/example-mcp-server
Version: 0.3.5
Published: 2026-02-22

We are the publisher of this server (authenticated via GitHub OIDC as mctx-ai org owner). We need this entry removed from the registry.

We attempted to use the API to delete it but found that:

• DELETE /v0.1/servers/{serverName} returns 404 (endpoint doesn't exist)
• DELETE /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version} returns 404 (endpoint doesn't exist)
• PUT /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}?status=deleted returns 403 (admin-only)

There appears to be no self-service deletion path available to publishers. Could you either:

1. Delete this entry for us, or
2. Let us know the correct API endpoint for publishers to remove their own entries

Thank you!

Related issues requesting self-service unpublish/deletion:

• Allow a reverse-publication flow #104 — Allow a reverse-publication flow
• Add support for un-publishing or route for authors to follow in order to obtain a removal. #416 — Add support for un-publishing or route for authors to follow in order to obtain a removal

Our publishing platform (mctx) needs this capability to let developers unpublish their servers. Currently we've had to disable our unpublish button since there's no API path for publishers to remove or deprecate their own entries.

Thanks for raising this, and apologies for the delay getting to it! This has been addressed — closing it out now.
