Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

[](https://github.com/NimbleBrainInc/nimblebrain/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [](https://github.com/NimbleBrainInc/nimblebrain/blob/main/LICENSE) [](https://bun.sh) [](https://modelcontextprotocol.io)

A self-hosted platform for MCP Apps and agent tasks. Install an MCP connector and you get more than tools — you get an interactive UI in the sidebar with live agent-UI data sync, and the ability to run the agent on demand or on a cron schedule. Full ext-apps host support on top of an agentic loop with skill-driven prompt composition.

Ships as container images on GHCR (ghcr.io/nimblebraininc/nimblebrain, ghcr.io/nimblebraininc/nimblebrain-web). Also exposes itself as an MCP server via Streamable HTTP so external MCP clients can consume the aggregated toolset.

Quick Start

Option 1: Docker (recommended)

# Prerequisites: Docker
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...

# The identity provider. `dev` signs every request in as one local developer,
# with no login: keep it on your own machine.
echo '{"auth":{"adapter":"dev"}}' > instance.json

docker compose up
# Pulls ghcr.io/nimblebraininc/nimblebrain + nimblebrain-web
# Web UI:  http://localhost:27246
# API:     http://localhost:27246/v1/health

Open http://localhost:27246 in your browser. The runtime does not start without instance.json; for a real identity provider (oidc or workos), see instance.json.

To build from source instead of pulling (e.g. when developing against local changes), run docker compose up --build.

Option 2: Local dev

Connect

Built from this server's own package name, version and transport as found in its source — not copied from anyone's documentation, so it cannot drift against a page we do not control. Replace the environment placeholders with a token scoped to the least it needs.
