ToolHive - simplify and secure MCP servers

**Run any Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: securely, instantly, anywhere.**

ToolHive includes everything you need to use MCP servers in production. Rather than build or combine components yourself, use ToolHive's Registry Server, Runtime, Gateway, and Portal to get up and running quickly and safely.

ToolHive keeps you in control of your MCP estate. Integrate with popular clients in seconds and deploy pre-vetted MCP servers in locked-down containers with a single click or command. ToolHive is available as a desktop app, web app, CLI, and Kubernetes operator.

Why ToolHive?

• Instant deployment: Start any MCP server with one click or 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 UI and CLI for local development, or the Kubernetes Operator for production and scale.
• Seamless integration: ToolHive auto-configures popular clients like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, VS Code Server, and more.
