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.
