// Our Verdict
The only directory that also hosts servers for you. CLI-first management. Strong choice if you want managed MCP infrastructure.
Best for: Hosted MCP server deployment without managing infrastructure
// Strengths
Hosted deployment option
CLI-first management
Broad client support
Security-conscious (patched critical vulnerability promptly)
// Weaknesses
Hosting model means token handling requires trust
Web UI secondary to CLI
Had a path traversal vulnerability (fixed June 2025)
