About Proxykey

Proxykey is an API-key vault and proxy for apps and agents that use revocable virtual passes without seeing original keys. Its MCP server manages passes while keeping secret values out of agent access.

Key features

  1. 01AES-256-GCM encrypted key storage
  2. 02Create, rotate, and revoke passes
  3. 03Per-pass IP binding and rate limits
  4. 04Inspect request logs and usage stats
  5. 05Proxy API requests

Use cases

  1. 01Let agents manage API credentials without exposing original keys
  2. 02Apply IP binding and rate limits to passes
  3. 03Review request activity and usage per pass

MCP support

The MCP server provides tools to create, update, revoke, and inspect passes. It cannot read or create original secret values; a human enters keys through the panel.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

From the project README

proxykey MCP server

Issue, rotate and revoke API-key passes from your AI agent — without the agent ever seeing a real key.

proxykey is a credential vault and proxy: your real API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Telegram, Stripe, 25+ providers) are encrypted with AES-256-GCM and never leave the server. Apps and agents use revocable virtual keys — passes (vlt_…) — with per-pass IP binding, rate limits and full request logs. This MCP server lets an agent manage those passes.

Why give an agent this instead of a key

Anything that enters a model's context can leak — through logs, traces or prompt injection. With proxykey the agent gets a tool, not a secret:

  • the agent can create / rotate / revoke / inspect passes;
  • a "read the real key" operation does not exist in the toolset;
  • only a human can enter the original key, in the panel;
  • a leaked pass is a non-event: wrong IP → 403, over limit → 429, revocation is one click and doesn't touch the original.

Quick start

  1. Sign in at https://app.proxykey.org (GitHub OAuth or email magic link, free).
  2. Open MCP → create a token (mcp_…).
  3. Connect your client:

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http proxykey https://mcp.proxykey.org/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer mcp_YOUR_TOKEN"

Claude Desktop / Cursor (mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "proxykey": {
      "url": "https://mcp.proxykey.org/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer mcp_YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

ToolWhat it does
list_providersProvider catalogue (slugs, auth models)
list_secretsStored keys (metadata only — never values)
get_manual_secret_setupLink for a human to enter a key
list_passesAll passes with status, limits, binding
create_passIssue a pass for an existing secret
create_pending_passIssue a pass before the key exists; a human fills the key in later, the pass activates automatically
update_passChange limits, IP mode, expiry
revoke_pass / delete_passKill a pass instantly / remove a revoked one
rotate_passReissue the token, same settings
rebind_pass_ipReset IP learning
get_pass_logs / get_pass_statsPer-pass request log and usage stats

The proxy itself

Point your client at the proxy and use the pass as the API key — only the host and the key change:

# before
curl https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-..."
# after
curl https://api.proxykey.org/p/openai/v1/chat/completions -H "Authorization: Bearer vlt_openai_..."

Streaming (SSE), request bodies and headers pass through unchanged. Telegram bots keep their URL shape (/p/telegram-bot/<pass>/getMe). Full reference: https://app.proxykey.org/docs.html

Security model (short version)

  • Secrets: AES-256-GCM envelope encryption, decrypted in memory per request, never logged, never returned by any API after creation.
  • Pass tokens and MCP tokens are stored hashed (SHA-256).
  • MCP surface cannot create or read secret values, or toggle body logging — those stay human-only in the panel.
  • Request logs contain metadata only — no auth headers, no key material.

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.
