About

ShipStatic hosts static sites. Through this server an assistant can upload HTML, CSS, JS and other files and get a live URL back. It can also password-protect a site, set an expiry, manage deployments and labels, and connect custom subdomains with DNS setup help.

The hosted endpoint at https://mcp.shipstatic.com needs no install, sign-in or API key for deploying. Without an account, sites are public and expire after 3 days, and a claim URL is returned to keep them. Listing, managing and domain tools need a connected account. A local npm package (@shipstatic/mcp) runs with npx on Node.js 20.19 or newer and takes an optional SHIP_TOKEN API key.

What you can do

  • Deploy static site files to an instant live URL
  • Password-protect a deployment
  • Set an expiry (ttl) on a deployment
  • List, inspect, label and delete deployments
  • Reserve and link custom subdomains to deployments

Set up

Every client connects to mcp.shipstatic.com. Pick yours; the page remembers your choice.

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http shipstatic https://mcp.shipstatic.com
  1. Start Claude Code and type /mcp. shipstatic should show as connected.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
  2. Name it ShipStatic and paste this URL:
https://mcp.shipstatic.com
  1. Click Add. Its tools appear in the chat’s tools menu.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

claude.ai

  1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
  1. Check that the URL reads https://mcp.shipstatic.com and click Add.
  2. Turn it on in a chat from the tools menu.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.

ChatGPT

  1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click + to create an app for a remote MCP server.
  3. Paste https://mcp.shipstatic.com as the server URL and choose No authentication.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shipstatic": {
      "url": "https://mcp.shipstatic.com"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"shipstatic","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.shipstatic.com"}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "shipstatic": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.shipstatic.com"
    }
  }
}

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shipstatic": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.shipstatic.com"
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.

Codex

codex mcp add shipstatic --url https://mcp.shipstatic.com

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.shipstatic]
url = "https://mcp.shipstatic.com"

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add --transport http shipstatic https://mcp.shipstatic.com

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shipstatic": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.shipstatic.com"
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.shipstatic.com.

FAQ

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/shipstatic into my MCP client?

No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://mcp.shipstatic.com, so your client talks to ShipStatic directly. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.

Does ShipStatic need an API key or a sign-in?

No. ShipStatic doesn’t ask for an account or key.

Is ShipStatic a remote or a local server?

Remote. ShipStatic hosts it at https://mcp.shipstatic.com, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There’s nothing to install.

What can ShipStatic do?

It has 15 tools, including deployments_upload, deployments_list and deployments_get. You can deploy static site files to an instant live URL, Password-protect a deployment and set an expiry (ttl) on a deployment.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc’s robot read ShipStatic’s own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can’t confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.

The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.
