Local MCP gateway for shared tool access

Toolport is a local gateway for MCP servers, so you can set up tools once and use them in several AI clients. It routes access through profiles, stores secrets in the OS keychain, and lets you review or restrict tool calls from one place.

211 stars•54 forks•Rust•Updated 7d ago
Who it's for

Builders who connect MCP tools to Claude, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, or similar clients.

What it delivers

You can set up your tool servers once and reuse them across clients without re-entering credentials or copying configs.

What it does

Shared tool gateway

Connect MCP servers once and make them available to multiple AI clients.

Lazy discovery

Find tools only when needed instead of loading every tool definition up front.

Keychain-backed secrets

Store credentials in the operating system keychain instead of client config files.

Tool controls

Disable tools, require approval for destructive calls, and review activity in one place.

Client profiles and shared rules

Choose which servers each client can access and apply agent rules across supported clients.

How to get it

  1. 1Requires Node.js and stable Rust, plus the platform dependencies described in…
    npm ci
npm run build:gateway
npm run tauri dev

Set up your MCP servers once. Use them in every AI client.

Toolport is a local gateway for MCP, the protocol that gives AI apps access to tools like GitHub, Slack, and databases. Connect your servers once, then share them across Claude, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, and other clients.

Toolport on Linux with the Tokyo Night theme

Why Toolport?

  • Less context overhead. Agents search for tools when they need them instead of loading every tool definition up front. See the benchmarks.
  • One setup for every client. Add and authenticate each server once. Use profiles to choose which servers each client can access.
  • Keys stay local. Credentials live in your OS keychain, outside client configs.
  • Control over tool calls. Disable tools, require approval for destructive calls, and review activity in one place.
  • Shared agent rules. Write instructions once and apply them to supported clients, with a preview before changes are written.

Get started

  1. Download Toolport for Windows, macOS, or Linux.
  2. Add a server from the catalog, import an existing setup, or paste a server config.
  3. Authenticate the server, then open Clients and connect your AI apps.

Installers and release notes are also on GitHub Releases. For Linux desktop integration, see Toolport on Omarchy.

Documentation

Development

Requires Node.js and stable Rust, plus the platform dependencies described in Contributing.
