arcade-mcp is the MCP framework that grows with you. Launch a secure MCP server with built in Auth, zero setup, and no rewrites. Write clean Python, scale to production, and connect tools like Gmail or Slack in one line. Open source, eval ready, and works with LangGraph, Cursor, Claude, and more.
I've been building with the Arcade's Secure MCP Framework for a couple weeks now and I've been beyond impressed! I've actually tried to build agent authorization myself into custom MCP servers in the past and it was a huge pain. So this is much needed!
I've used the Secure MCP Framework by Arcade.dev multiple times now and it's been a breeze each time. I converted some of my old helper scripts into a simple MCP server with minimal code.
This is exactly what the MCP ecosystem needs. I've built a few localhost-only MCP servers and the thought of adding proper auth and deploying them securely felt like a massive hurdle. The fact that this handles delegated access and secret management out of the box is a game-changer.
Let’s go team! I love seeing us give these goodies to the community. We love feedback , don’t be shy. Tell us what you want and what we can do better. It’s time to build.
I'm so happy about this going live!
arcade-mcp, the secure MCP framework provides a robust development framework for MCP servers, especially by managing authentication for you, connecting to any third-party system. We know auth can be a huge hurdle, and we made it seamless.
My favorite feature has to be how incredibly easy it makes building a local MCP server and securely deploying it in a single step. We really focused on taking the headache out of getting a production-grade MCP server up and running quickly.
If you've ever wanted to turn that weekend project into a real agent people can use, then give arcade-mcp a try.
Congrats on the launch, team! It's been really exciting watching all the ways in which Arcade leverages devtooling security and makes it more accessible to developers. Keep up the great work!
Love seeing this go live! This is the kind of infrastructure that makes everything else possible 🚀
We kept seeing the same thing: cool MCP demos that only work on localhost.
When we started building real agents, we hit the same pain - auth broke, secrets leaked, and deploying to production meant rewriting everything. So we built a framework to fix it.
arcade-mcp. the secure MCP framework is an open-source server framework for building and deploying MCP servers that actually scale. It handles:
Auth flows and delegated access
Secret management (never exposed to the model)
One-command deploy from localhost to production
We’ve been using it internally to run hundreds of MCP servers and thousands of tools - now it’s yours too. If you’re tired of fighting just to get an agent online, then give it a spin.
I'm so excited for this launch! And I'm very proud of the developer experience we were able to create: seamless.
Developers can:
Build on a local machine with zero config
Test with local credentials
Deploy to staging with real OAuth
Scale to prod with proper secrets management
Same codebase. Same API. No surprises between environments. 🎉
