MCP hosting, two ways.
Thora speaks MCP, the standard way AI tools talk to other software. Connect your AI to Thora, or run your own MCP server on it.
Way one: connect your AI to Thora.
Thora has its own MCP connector. Add it to Claude or ChatGPT and sign in once. Your AI can then build, preview and test sites for you. Other MCP tools connect with an access token.
The connector lists only the tools your sign-in allows, and each call names the organization it is for. Publishing, rollback and purchases stay with a person. See what an agent can do on the deploy page.
Way two: run your own MCP server.
Build it.
Write an MCP server that speaks over HTTP. Your AI can do this.
Preview it.
Thora builds a private preview with the server running, and your agent tests it.
Publish it.
You approve the release once, and the server goes live on your domain.
An MCP server over HTTP is a Node server like any other, and Thora Sites runs Node servers. We haven't published an MCP-specific starter yet.
Protect it, and know the limits.
Your own server is open to whoever can reach it, so plan for that.
Protect it
- Add your own sign-in or key check. Locking a Thora site to Thora sign-in blocks outside callers, including AI tools
- Keep keys in Thora's secure secrets. Never put them in the code or a chat
- Keep each tool narrow, and ask for approval before anything destructive
Know the limits
- Servers that answer each request on its own fit best. Long-lived streaming connections aren't something we've qualified, so ask us first
- A release still needs a domain you own and one human approval
- Thora is in beta, and a real person sets up each workspace
