13 Outstanding MCP Servers
MCP is redefining how AI assistants connect to the world of data and tools, so no wonder MCP servers are in high demand now. That’s why we’ve curated 13 cool MCP servers to upgrade your workflow:
1. Hugging Face Official MCP Server -> https://github.com/evalstate/hf-mcp-server
Provides an access and interaction with Hugging Face models, datasets, and Gradio Spaces for dynamic tool integration and configuration across environments.
2. Browser MCP -> https://browsermcp.io/
An MCP server +Chrome extension. It allows to automate your browser with AI apps like VS Code, Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.
3. Bright Data MCP -> https://github.com/brightdata/brightdata-mcp
This one is for working with data in real-time: searching the web, navigating websites, taking action and retrieving data.
4. JSON MCP -> https://github.com/VadimNastoyashchy/json-mcp
Interact with JSON files: split, merge, find specific data, and validate content within them.
5. Octagon Deep Research MCP -> https://github.com/OctagonAI/octagon-deep-research-mcp
Allows for deep research via AI agents, integrating seamlessly with MCP clients like Claude Desktop and Cursor for powerful, unlimited research capabilities.
6. VLM Run MCP Server -> https://docs.vlm.run/mcp/introduction
Provides an agent the ability to see, understand and process visual content.

5 New implementations of Diffusion Models
Diffusion models are widely used for image and video generation but remain underexplored in text generation, where autoregressive models (ARMs) dominate. Unlike ARMs, which produce tokens sequentially, diffusion models iteratively refine noise through denoising steps, offering greater flexibility and speed.
Recent advancements show a shift toward using diffusion models in place of, or alongside, ARMs. Researchers also combine strengths from both methods and integrate autoregressive concepts into diffusion.
Here are 5 new implementations of diffusion models:
1. Mercury family of diffusion LLMs (dLLMs) by Inception Labs -> https://www.inceptionlabs.ai/news
It applies diffusion to text and code data, enabling sequence generation 10x faster than today's top LLMs. Now available Mercury Coder can run at over 1,000 tokens/sec on NVIDIA H100s.
2. Diffusion of Thoughts (DoT) -> https://huggingface.co/papers/2402.07754
Integrates diffusion models with Chain-of-Thought. DoT allows reasoning steps to diffuse gradually over time. This flexibility enables balancing between reasoning quality and computational cost.
3. LLaDA -> https://huggingface.co/papers/2502.09992
Shows diffusion models' potential in replacing ARMs. Trained with pre-training and SFT, LLaDA masks tokens, predicts them via a Transformer, and optimizes a likelihood bound. LLaDA matches key LLM skills, and surpasses GPT-4o in reversal poetry.
4. LanDiff -> https://huggingface.co/papers/2503.04606
This hybrid text-to-video model combines autoregressive and diffusion paradigms, introducing a semantic tokenizer, an LM for token generation, and a streaming diffusion model. LanDiff outperforms models like Sora.
5. General Interpolating Discrete Diffusion (GIDD) -> https://huggingface.co/papers/2503.04482
A flexible noising process with a novel diffusion ELBO enables combining masking and uniform noise, allowing diffusion models to correct mistakes, where ARMs struggle.
