Guide

Quickstart

Create, review, deploy, and connect to your first hosted MCP.

1. Add a source

Open the MCP Ops console, create a new MCP project, then provide a public OpenAPI URL, upload a specification, or paste Markdown. For documentation sources, also provide the public upstream API base URL.

2. Review the generated tools

Wait for generation to finish, then inspect each tool name, description, schema, request mapping, and risk annotation. Disable anything you do not intend to expose.

3. Deploy a runtime

Choose a unique endpoint slug and a runtime class. MCP Ops schedules the container and marks the deployment ready only after health checks pass.

4. Create an API key

Create a project key after deployment. Copy it immediately because the secret is shown once and stored only as a hash.

5. Connect your client

Use the HTTPS endpoint shown in the project and send the key as an Authorization: Bearer header.
