Method

Apify runs one hosted MCP server at https://mcp.apify.com. Every Actor in this catalogue becomes one tool an agent can call when its name is added to the server URL (?tools=owner/actor), in Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Codex or n8n. The index counts those Actors.

  • In the index: every Actor listed in the catalogue on the last day of the month (or today, for the current month), except Actors kept off recommendations.
  • Joined: the Actor was first published that month, by the catalogue's publication records.
  • Left: the Actor was deleted, made private or deprecated that month; the catalogue checks every Actor several times an hour.
  • Confirmed: a tools/list request to the Actor's own MCP URL returned its run tool. Nothing is run and nothing is billed; Actors not yet probed count as unconfirmed.
  • Shelf: the kind of data, from the website the Actor reads or its Store categories.
  • Most used: users as each Actor's Store listing reports them, the date shown above. These include anyone who ran the Actor, its makers too.

A month is frozen when it ends: its numbers never change afterwards, even when an Actor in it is later removed (it is then named without a link). The current month updates with every catalogue check.
