Endpoint
Hosted endpoint · transport
Connect
This is a remote MCP server — point an MCP client at the endpoint URL. Clients with native remote support (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, …):
# mcp client config (e.g. .mcp.json / mcp settings)
{
"mcpServers": {
"chieflab-io": {
"url": "https://api.chieflab.io/api/mcp"
}
}
}
For stdio-only clients (older Claude Desktop, etc.), bridge with mcp-remote:
# Add to claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"chieflab-io": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://api.chieflab.io/api/mcp"]
}
}
}
If the server requires authentication, add the provider's token/header (e.g. an X-API-Key) per its docs. A quick reachability check:
curl -i -X POST https://api.chieflab.io/api/mcp \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

About MCP
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.
Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.
Work with this as data
Every MCP server here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
