go to MCP.so, select a hosting server,
click `Connect` to generate your exclusive server_key.

take `Claude Desktop` for example:
{
"mcpServers": {
"fetch": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcprouter"],
"env": {
"SERVER_KEY": "xxx"
}
}
}

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcprouter": {
"command": "/path/to/mcprouter/build/index.js"

npm run inspectorThe Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
