Agent infrastructure · by South Forge AI
Toolport
A free MIT-licensed desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux that runs one local MCP gateway: you add each MCP server once, it replaces the per-agent config entries in 39 detected agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and others) with a single entry, and moves API keys into the OS keychain.
You stop copying the same MCP server config and plain-text API keys into every agent's settings file, and a broken server is retried or flagged in one place instead of failing silently in six tools.

For your agent
No official API. An agent should not scrape the site: use it by hand.
- Install the desktop app from toolport.app/download; it rewrites each agent's config to one `toolport` MCP entry pointing at the local toolport-gateway binary (backups kept, Disconnect restores), keys go to the OS keychain; Open WebUI and other OpenAPI clients reach the same servers over local HTTP.
- Only connect MCP servers you trust; the injection screening is heuristic, not a guarantee
- Do not paste secrets into shared Teams commands, URLs or instructions
- Self-hosting Teams for more than 10 people needs a licence
