mcp-hub runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 345 installs a week from npm. Last commit 15 Oct 2026.
Many stdio MCP servers from one container, published over HTTPS with OAuth 2.1 for any MCP client
Today is the operative word: we check mcp-hub every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.
claude mcp add mcp-hub -- npx -y @ni-c/mcp-hub
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-hub": {
"args": [
"-y",
"@ni-c/mcp-hub"
],
"command": "npx"
}
}

command = "npx"

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
CONFIG_PATH (Path to the mcp.json listing the servers to expose, in Claude Code's mcpServers format (default mcp.json in the working directory)), IDLE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES (Minutes of inactivity before a server is put to sleep; 0 starts every server at launch and keeps it running (default 60)), TOOL_CACHE_PATH (Tool snapshots of sleeping servers (default .mcp-hub/tool-cache.json beside the config)), LOG_FILE (Mirror the hub's log lines into this file; stdout carries the protocol, so logging goes to stderr otherwise).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
