HostBridge MCP Server

Arc MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that simplifies framework deployments on various hosting environments, with a focus on shared hosting.

Overview

Arc bridges the gap between Large Language Models (LLMs) and hosting environments, allowing novice developers to deploy web applications easily through conversational interfaces. It implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to expose tools, resources, and prompts that guide users through the deployment process.

Key Features

Framework Support: Deploy Wasp applications with ease, with planned support for more frameworks
Multi-Provider: Support for Netlify, Vercel, traditional shared hosting environments, and Hostm.com
Guided Deployments: Prompts to guide users through the deployment process
Authentication Management: Secure storage of hosting provider credentials
Troubleshooting: Built-in tools to diagnose and fix common deployment issues
Focused on Shared Hosting: Simplified deployment to traditional shared hosting environments

Status

This project is currently in early development. Contributions and feedback are welcome!

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+
MCP Client (e.g., Claude Desktop)
Hosting provider accounts as needed

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/elblanco2/arc-mcp.git
cd arc-mcp

# Create a virtual environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\\Scripts\\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Install the package in development mode
pip install -e .

Configuration

Create a .env file with your configuration:

SECURE_STORAGE_PATH=~/.arc/credentials

Usage

Running from command line

# Start the server directly
arc

# With debug logging
arc --debug

# With a custom storage path
arc --secure-storage-path=/path/to/credentials

Using with Claude Desktop

Edit your Claude Desktop configuration file:
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows: %APPDATA%\\Claude\\claude_desktop_config.json
Add Arc server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arc": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "-m",
        "arc",
        "--debug"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop.
Start conversations with Claude about deploying your applications!

Architecture

Arc is built on a modular architecture:
