About resource-hub-server
resource-hub-server is a proxy linking a local MCP environment with Resource Hub, for users who configure and manage MCP servers centrally. It makes centrally configured tools and resources available and lets configurations be shared across environments.
Key features
- 01Proxy between local MCP and Resource Hub
- 02Access centrally configured tools and resources
- 03Share configurations across environments
- 04Manage MCP server settings centrally
Use cases
- 01Use Resource Hub-configured tools locally
- 02Reuse MCP server configurations across environments
MCP support
The MCP server acts as a proxy between a local MCP environment and Resource Hub, exposing centrally configured tools and resources to clients. It requires a RESOURCE_HUB_TOKEN.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
npx -y @adamwattis/resource-hub-serverRESOURCE_HUB_TOKENSecretLocal servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEresource-hub-server
An MCP server that connects to the Resource Hub - a central place to configure and manage your MCP servers.
Overview
The resource-hub-server acts as a proxy between your local MCP environment and the Resource Hub. It allows you to:
- Access centrally configured tools and resources
- Share configurations across different environments
- Manage MCP server settings in one place
Usage
Quick Start with npx
The easiest way to run the server is using npx:
RESOURCE_HUB_TOKEN=your_token npx @adamwattis/resource-hub-server
Running from Source
If you want to run from source:
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Build the server:
npm run build
- Run with your Resource Hub token:
RESOURCE_HUB_TOKEN=your_token npm start
Configuration
You'll need a Resource Hub token to use this server. You can get this from the Resource Hub token page.
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": {
"resource-hub-server": {
"command": "npx @adamwattis/resource-hub-server"
}
}
}
Environment Variables
RESOURCE_HUB_TOKEN(required): Your Resource Hub authentication token
Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector:
npm run inspector
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

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.
