Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account aerolalit for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Pane lets an assistant hand a human a rich interactive UI by URL and receive structured data back, from any MCP client.

What you can do: Send a person a link to an interactive UI and collect their structured responses back into the conversation, so a human can fill in or choose things the assistant cannot decide alone. Works from any MCP client over a local stdio process. Connects through a Pane relay, either the hosted one or a self-hosted relay you point it at. Registers an agent automatically on first use when no API key is supplied.
When to use it: Useful when a task needs human input that is easier to give through a form or interactive page than through chat, such as approvals, selections or structured data entry, and you want the result returned to the assistant.
Requirements: Runs as a local npm package over stdio on a desktop machine. Needs network access to a Pane relay; PANE_URL defaults to the hosted relay and can point at a self-hosted one. Optional PANE_API_KEY and PANE_AGENT_NAME; PANE_REGISTER_SECRET only for relays in secret registration mode.

Before you install

Without PANE_API_KEY the server auto-registers an agent and writes the key to a shared config file under the user's home directory. PANE_API_KEY and PANE_REGISTER_SECRET are secrets and should be handled carefully. Data entered in the UI and relay traffic pass through the relay, which is a third party unless self-hosted.

Installation

In SourceWeft
