It runs as a remote server. In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http hotrepo 'https://hotrepo.ai/mcp' --header 'Authorization: <Bearer token with your HotRepo API key. Create one for free at https://hotrepo.ai/account>'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does HotRepo need an API key?

Who maintains HotRepo?
It is published by ai.hotrepo. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
