Notion MCP
huge install base, and the open-source half is being wound down
137,000 npm installs a week and a clean hosted oauth endpoint — but the local server you might be tempted to self-host is on borrowed time.
the hosted server at `https://mcp.notion.com/mcp` uses oauth and needs no setup, and that's the one to use. the open-source local server runs via `npx @notionhq/notion-mcp-server` with stdio or http transports, an auth token flag, and an honestly-named `--unsafe-disable-auth` option.
notion has reportedly said the local open-source server is no longer actively maintained and may be sunset in favour of the hosted one. the repo's activity is consistent with that. we could not find a formal announcement, so treat it as likely rather than confirmed — but don't build a long-term dependency on the local path.
the description above is ours, condensed from the ranking. pricing moves — check it on the vendor's own page before you rely on it.

we researched this category against vendors' own pricing pages and licence files. that is where this line comes from — not from the vendor, and not from anything they paid for.
