About MCP Servers for Code & Development Tools

MCP servers that help with code generation, testing, debugging, and development workflows. Nerq tracks 9,673 MCP servers in the code & development tools category, each assessed against 52 global AI regulations including the EU AI Act, US state AI laws (California SB53, Colorado SB205), UK AI Bill, and more. Compliance scores are weighted by jurisdiction penalty severity — jurisdictions with higher fines (like the EU AI Act at up to €35M) have more impact on the score than voluntary frameworks.
