ToolHive - simplify and secure MCP servers

Run any Model Context Protocol (MCP) server — 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 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, and more. ToolHive is available as a GUI desktop app, CLI, and Kubernetes Operator.
