Use MCP servers in Oh My Pi with Toolport
Toolport is a free, open source local MCP gateway. Add your servers to Toolport once, flip the Oh My Pi toggle, and Oh My Pi gets all of them through a single gateway entry, with lazy discovery loading a handful of meta-tools instead of every server's full tool list.
Setup
- Download Toolport for Windows, macOS or Linux, and add your MCP servers to it (or import the ones your other AI agents already have; secrets go to your OS keychain).
- Open the Clients tab and toggle Oh My Pi on. Toolport writes its gateway entry into Oh My Pi's config, next to anything already there.
- Restart or reload Oh My Pi. Your full server set is available through Toolport, and any server you add later shows up without touching Oh My Pi again.
Where Oh My Pi keeps its MCP config
- All platforms
~/.omp/agent/mcp.json
JSON with a top-level mcpServers object, the same shape Pi uses.
Good to know
- Oh My Pi keeps its own config directory, so connecting it here is separate from connecting Pi and the two can hold different profile scopes.
Why a gateway instead of Oh My Pi's own server list?
- One setup, every agent. The same servers work in Oh My Pi and every other AI agent on your machine; add a server once and they all get it.
- Up to 91% fewer tool tokens. Instead of every server dumping its tool list into context, the agent loads a handful of meta-tools and searches on demand (measured).
- Secrets in the OS keychain. API keys are injected at runtime and never sit in Oh My Pi's config file.
- Watched by default. Rug-pull and tool-poisoning detection on every tool, plus per-tool governance and a destructive-tool kill switch. How the security works.
