Paste a Streamable HTTP endpoint into your MCP client. Every connected service shares the same hosted infrastructure — no per-server local installs.
Background agents and long-running sessions keep working when your laptop sleeps. Remote servers stay reachable over HTTPS for the whole team.
Connect accounts once in MCPBundles. Keys and tokens are encrypted at rest and injected at call time — not copied into local JSON configs.
| Local (stdio) | Remote hosted (MCPBundles) | |
|---|---|---|
| Connection | Local subprocess on your machine | HTTPS URL — Streamable HTTP |
| Uptime | Stops when the process or laptop stops | Always available in the cloud |
| Team sharing | Manual key handoffs | One workspace URL for the team |
| Catalog size | One repo per service you install | 1,500+ servers in one directory |
The MCPBundles directory lists every hosted server with setup steps, example workflows, and client compatibility. Filter by category — developer tools, open data, financial services, marketing, and more.
A remote MCP server runs in the cloud and exposes an HTTPS URL your AI client connects to. Instead of starting a local process with stdio transport, you paste one Streamable HTTP endpoint into Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or VS Code and the tools go live.
MCPBundles lists 1,500+ live hosted MCP servers across marketing, CRM, finance, developer tools, open data, and more. Each server is reachable from a single remote URL after you connect your account.
No. Hosted MCP servers on MCPBundles run on our infrastructure. Your machine only needs an MCP client — Desktop, IDE, or chat app — pointed at the remote server URL.
Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT, Codex, and other MCP-compatible clients can connect to Streamable HTTP remote servers. See the getting-started guide for per-client setup steps.
Local MCP servers use stdio and require a running process on your machine. Remote hosted servers use HTTPS, stay available for background agents and teammates, and keep credentials encrypted on the server instead of in JSON config files.
