Server visible in Official Registry API but not discoverable on github.com/mcp search

[bilalahmed-344]

Describe the bug
Our MCP server is published and returned by the Official MCP Registry API, but it does not appear in the GitHub MCP Registry UI search at 'github.com/mcp'.

Server details

• Server name: 'io.github.shabaaspay/shabaaspay-payto'
• Title: ShaBaasPay MCP Server
• Version: 1.0.2
• Source repo: https://github.com/shabaaspay/shabaaspay-mcp-server
• NPM package: 'shabaaspay-mcp-server@1.0.2'

Evidence

• Official registry API returns it:
  • https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0.1/servers?search=shabaaspay
  • https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0.1/servers?search=io.github.shabaaspay/shabaaspay-payto
  • https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/?q=shabaaspay
• GitHub MCP UI search shows no results:
  • https://github.com/mcp?search=shabaaspay

To reproduce

1. Open https://github.com/mcp?search=shabaaspay
2. Observe: no results
3. Open https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0.1/servers?search=shabaaspay
4. Observe: server is returned

Expected behavior
If a server is present and active in the Official MCP Registry, it should be discoverable in 'github.com/mcp' search for relevant terms (e.g. 'shabaaspay' or the server name).

Additional context
We believe this is an indexing/sync issue between the registry backend and the GitHub MCP UI.
