MCP Remote

ivyx

Connect to MCP servers over HTTP or SSE and make their tools available where you work

MCP Remote

Adds remote HTTP MCP server support to the MCP Servers extension. Give it the URL of a hosted MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and it connects over the network, making that server's tools available to your agents, workflows, and the MCP Explorer.

What you can do

  • Add a remote server by its URL from a short form in the sidebar.
  • Connect over the network — nothing to install locally.
  • Use the server's tools anywhere connected MCP tools are available.

Requirements

  • Works in both the browser and the desktop app.
  • Works alongside the MCP Servers extension, where connected servers are listed and managed.
  • For local command-line servers instead, use MCP Local.

Getting started

Run Connect Remote MCP and enter your server's URL.
