}Remote HTTP Mode (Hosted)
AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server that you can connect to directly — no local installation required.
Endpoint: https://luma.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
All requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Get your token from AceDataCloud Platform.

docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-luma:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-luma:latestClients connect with their own Bearer token — the server extracts the token from each request's Authorization header and uses it for upstream API calls.
