ToolHive - simplify and secure MCP servers

Run any Model Context Protocol (MCP) server โ€” securely, instantly, anywhere.

ToolHive is the easiest way to discover, deploy, and manage MCP servers. Launch
any MCP server in a locked-down container with a single command. No manual
setup, no security headaches, no runtime hassles.

Why ToolHive?

  • Instant deployment: Start any MCP server with one command, using Docker or
    Kubernetes.
  • Secure by default: Every server runs in an isolated container with only
    the permissions it needs. Secrets are managed securely, never in plaintext.
  • Works everywhere: Use the CLI for local development, or the Kubernetes
    Operator for production and scale.
  • Seamless integration: ToolHive auto-configures popular clients like GitHub
    Copilot, Cursor, and more.
