IVY MCP Server

Serve the tools you built in IVY MCP as a live MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, so other apps — like Claude Desktop — can call them. It runs as both a local command-line server and an HTTP server, and it prompts you for approval before a sensitive tool runs.

What you can do

• Start and stop serving a provider you built in IVY MCP.
• Let outside clients such as Claude Desktop or MCP Inspector call your tools.
• Approve or deny sensitive tool calls as they come in, or pre-approve specific tools so they run without a prompt.
• Open a status panel to see what's serving and copy a ready-made client config.
• Generate a Claude Desktop config entry so you can connect in a few steps.

Getting started

• Build a provider first in IVY MCP.
• Start serving, then add the generated config to Claude Desktop and restart it.
• Watch calls come and go in MCP Monitor.

Requirements

• Desktop app only — serving opens a network connection on your machine.
• Connecting from Claude Desktop needs Node.js 18 or newer available to it.
