Research direction

Find where the mcp-arcade listing is stored or managed; the issue identifies its source as servers/arcade/server.json in the archived import. Start by searching the repository for mcp-arcade and check how listings are unpublished. Done means the listing is no longer available at the Cursor Directory URL.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The mcp-arcade listing at https://cursor.directory/plugins/mcp-arcade came from the bulk import of the archived cursor/mcp-servers repo (servers/arcade/server.json). It points at https://ctl.arcade.dev/mcp over sse. That endpoint doesn't work in Cursor, because its MCP protocol version isn't compatible, so anyone who installs the listing gets a broken server.

I'm on the Arcade.dev team and maintain https://github.com/ArcadeAI/arcade-plugin. Could you unpublish mcp-arcade? We'll publish Arcade's plugin through the Cursor Marketplace instead. Thanks!
