Give your AI the best tools from all your MCPs 🎯

⚡ Features

🔓 Break Free from Tool Limits

Connect unlimited MCP servers. Use 10, 50, or 500+ tools total - your AI only sees what it needs.

🎯 Task-Specific Toolsets

Build "git-essentials" with 5 tools instead of drowning in 47 Git commands. Switch contexts instantly.

🧠 Smart Tool Descriptions

Enhance tools with examples and context. Watch your AI pick the right tool 89% more often.

🚀 Quick Start

Step 1: Copy Your Existing Config

# In your project directory
cp .mcp.json .mcp.hypertool.json

Step 2: Point Your AI to HyperTool

Replace your .mcp.json with:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hypertool": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@toolprint/hypertool-mcp", "--mcp-config", ".mcp.hypertool.json"]
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Create Your First Toolset

Restart your AI and try:

You: "Create a toolset called 'coding' with git and docker tools"
AI: "Created 'coding' toolset with 15 focused tools"

You: "Switch to coding toolset"
AI: "Equipped! I now have just the tools needed for development"

That's it! Your AI is now focused and effective. 🎉

📚 Configuration Mode: HyperTool uses a smart Configuration Mode to keep toolset management separate from your operational tools. Learn more in the Configuration Mode Guide.

What's a "Toolset"? Think Playlists for Your AI

Just like Spotify playlists organize your music, toolsets organize your AI tools:

ALL YOUR TOOLS (64 total)              YOUR TOOLSETS

💼 Real-World Toolsets

Create focused toolsets for different workflows:

🔨 Development Mode

"deep-coding": git + docker + filesystem (12 tools)
→ Everything you need for feature development

"code-review": git + github + linear (10 tools)
→ Review PRs, update tickets, merge with confidence

"debugging": logs + docker + traces + alerts (8 tools)
→ Find and fix issues fast

📝 Content Creation

"writing": notion + grammarly + slack (6 tools)
→ Blog posts, docs, and team updates

"research": perplexity + notion + filesystem (7 tools)
→ Deep dives with organized notes

📁 Server Groups (NEW!)

Organize your MCP servers into logical groups for easy management:

# Create a development group
hypertool-mcp mcp group create development -d "All development servers"

# Add servers to the group
hypertool-mcp mcp group add development git-server docker-server filesystem-server

# Run with a specific group
hypertool-mcp --group development

# List all groups
hypertool-mcp mcp group list

# Show servers in a group
hypertool-mcp mcp group show development

Server groups make it easy to:

• 🚀 Launch related servers together
• 📊 Organize servers by project or environment
• 🔄 Switch between different server configurations
• 🎯 Maintain focused tool contexts

🎬 Real Chat Example

You: "I need to debug our API"
AI: "I'll switch to the debugging toolset for better focus"
[Now has: logs, traces, curl, docker]

You: "Actually, let's write the incident report"
AI: "Switching to writing toolset"
[Now has: notion, slack, templates]

💡 Pro tip: Start with 3-5 tools per toolset. Your AI will thank you!

❓ FAQ

General Questions

Q: How is this different from just using MCP servers directly? A: HyperTool lets you use unlimited MCP servers without hitting the 100-tool limit, and dynamically switches between focused toolsets for better AI performance.

Q: Can I use multiple toolsets at once? A: In stdio mode (default), use --equip-toolset <name> when launching. HTTP mode supports one active toolset but you can switch anytime.

Q: Where are my toolsets stored? A: Locally in ~/.toolprint/hypertool-mcp/. Explore the directory to see your configurations.

Setup & Compatibility

Q: Does this work with Claude Desktop / Cursor / Claude Code? A: Yes! Cursor has full hot-swapping support. Claude Desktop works with restart. Claude Code hot-swap coming soon.

Q: What if an MCP server goes down? A: HyperTool monitors health and automatically reconnects when servers come back. Your toolsets stay intact.

Q: Can I share toolsets with my team? A: Import/export is coming soon! For now, you can copy and share toolset files - they'll work if your team has the same MCP servers configured.

Technical Questions

Q: How do I add tools from a new MCP server? A: Just add the server to your .mcp.hypertool.json config. It's automatically available for toolsets.

Q: Can I use this in production? A: Yes! For enterprise support, contact us.

🎮 App Compatibility

Works with ANY MCP-compatible app! HyperTool is a standard MCP server, so if your app supports MCP, it supports HyperTool.
