Available tools 10

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

browse
browse_apps
Search ElfHosted's catalogue of apps and bundles by name or by what you want done, such as "photos" or "password manager". Returns each match's name, a short description, its live price and its store link. With no search words, AIOStreams, Immich, OpenClaw and Hermes come first.
compare
compare_apps
Compare 2 to 5 ElfHosted apps or bundles side by side: name, description, live price and store link for each. Give store product ids or names.
connect
connect_my_account
How an ElfHosted customer connects their agent to their own private MCP server, which sees their apps and can ask for changes, with the steps for claude.ai, ChatGPT, Claude Code and Cursor. Read from the docs, with the link.
doc
get_doc
Read one page of the public ElfHosted docs as markdown. Give its path ("app/plex", "ai-agents") or its docs.elfhosted.com link, as search_docs returns. Long pages are cut short.
docs
search_docs
Search ElfHosted's public documentation. Returns the best matching pages and sections, each with its title, link and a short snippet. get_doc reads a whole page.
how
how_the_trial_works
How ElfHosted's $1 trial works: how long it runs, what you get, which products are not on trial, what happens when it ends, and how to cancel. Read from the trial page of the docs, with its link.
platform
platform_status
Whether ElfHosted's public services are up right now, from the status page, naming any that are down.
save
save_me_money
Ways to pay less for an ElfHosted app: prepaying 3, 6 or 12 months, and paying with ElfBuckz bought with Bitcoin, which stacks with prepaying. Give a product (a name, search words or a store product id) to get its live monthly price and what each term costs; without one, it explains the savings with a worked example.
second
second_breakfast
For someone happy with their stack who wants more: suggests up to 5 ElfHosted apps that pair with the apps they list, never one they already run, each with why and a live store link. Rules-based.
setup
find_my_setup
Suggests which ElfHosted path fits how someone watches and what they want: Stremio with their own private AIOStreams, a Plex, Emby or Jellyfin library, or Flex for everyday apps such as photos, recipes and notes. Rules-based, with live store links and prices.

ElfHosted — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ElfHosted do?
It exposes 10 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: browse_apps, compare_apps, connect_my_account, find_my_setup, get_doc, how_the_trial_works and 4 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is ElfHosted working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 222 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ElfHosted?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does ElfHosted need an API key?
No. ElfHosted completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 10 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is ElfHosted?
It answers our handshake in 222 ms on average, which is faster than 65% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
