MCP Hive is a gateway to paid commercial-grade MCP servers. Learn more at https://mcp-hive.com

Overview

AI-generated overview

A local proxy that connects an assistant to MCP-Hive, a paid gateway for commercial MCP servers, either one server at a time or all of them at once.

What you can do
Proxy a single named MCP-Hive server to the client, or run in gateway mode to expose all available servers through one proxy with namespaced tools (serverName___toolName). In gateway mode, discover servers and list their tools, resources and prompts. Run over stdio or HTTP transport with a chosen port, with optional verbose logging.
When to use it
Use it when you want to reach commercial MCP servers offered through MCP-Hive from an agentic host, either a specific one or the whole catalog behind a single connection.
Requirements
Runs as a local process via the npm package @mcp-hive-utils/proxy, so Node.js is needed. Requires MCP-Hive consumer credentials passed with the --credentials flag, obtained from the provider. Desktop host only; HTTP mode needs a port.
Before you install
It is a gateway to paid commercial servers, so using the proxied servers may involve payment. It requires consumer credentials on the command line; keep them out of shared logs and configs. In gateway mode all available servers' tools are exposed to the assistant.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Mcp Hive Proxy in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Score

50% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
