Put It Online MCP server
Put It Online turns files and AI-made web pages into short public links. This repository holds the public metadata and connection instructions for its hosted remote MCP server:
https://putit.online/mcp
Ask your assistant to build a landing page, an RSVP page, a chart or a report, and it publishes it as a live web page. Share a PDF, an image, a zip or any other file the same way. Every upload passes a safety check before the link goes live, and published pages are served sandboxed on their own link.
- Transport: Streamable HTTP (remote, nothing to install)
- Auth: optional. Works anonymously (7-day links plus a private manage token). Sign in with OAuth 2.1 (PKCE, client ID metadata documents or dynamic client registration) or an API key to keep links in your account.
- Account-only URL:
https://putit.online/mcp/accountalways asks you to sign in. Use it for clients that decide on OAuth at connect time (Windsurf, Zed, Le Chat, Docker). - Official MCP Registry name:
online.putit/put-it-online - Docs: https://putit.online/connect · Privacy: https://putit.online/privacy · Terms: https://putit.online/terms · Support: https://putit.online/support
The server itself is a hosted service and is not open source. This repository contains only metadata (
server.json,gemini-extension.json,glama.json), instructions and logos, under the MIT licence.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
