Authoritative reference for submitting tdmcp to the Anthropic Connectors Directory as a Claude Desktop Extension (MCPB). Use whenever drafting, checking, or fixing the submission — it defines the two submission paths, why tdmcp is a Desktop Extension (never a remote connector), every form field, the rejection-causing gates, and the local-only compliance story. Read this before writing any submission deliverable.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Anthropic Connectors Directory — tdmcp submission spec
The "Claude marketplace" is the **Anthropic Connectors Directory**, surfaced in
Claude Desktop at *Settings → Extensions → Browse extensions* ("Anthropic-reviewed
tools"). There are **two submission paths with separate forms** — picking the
wrong one wastes a ~2-week review cycle.
## Path decision — tdmcp is a Desktop Extension (MCPB)
| Path | For | tdmcp? |
|------|-----|--------|
| **Remote MCP server** (internet-hosted, OAuth 2.0) → *MCP Directory form* | SaaS-style connectors Claude reaches over the network | **NO** |
| **Desktop Extension** (local MCP server bundled as **MCPB**) → *Desktop extension form* | Local servers that run on the user's machine | **YES** |
**Why local:** tdmcp is a Node/stdio server that talks to a Python bridge running
*inside TouchDesigner* at `127.0.0.1:9980`. It cannot be hosted remotely — it must
run next to TD on the artist's machine. So OAuth/hosting requirements **do not
apply**; ignore them. Submit via the **Desktop extension form** (linked from the
official submission docs page).
> `.dxt` was renamed to `.mcpb` (MCP Bundle). Existing `.dxt` still installs, but

How to install
mdr add hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills/connectors-directory-spec@sha256:83d83c63019c93fdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260727.48beb34, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
