This is a model context protocol (MCP) server that provides access to tools from the [Toolhouse](https://toolhouse.ai) platform.
This is a model context protocol (MCP) server that provides access to tools from the Toolhouse platform. That is what the mcp toolhouse mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: TOOLHOUSE_API_KEY, TOOLHOUSE_BUNDLE, PYTHONUTF8. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. It is maintained by SecretiveShell; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
