Apache-2.0 licensed. The MCP server exposes powerful modules including sandbox code execution (Python/Shell/JavaScript), shell/SSH access, Docker and Kubernetes control, file system read/write, and network scanning — grant access deliberately. Many integration modules (OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS S3, Google, Slack, etc.) require their own API keys/credentials supplied via environment variables. Report vulnerabilities to security@flyto.dev.

What does the MCP server actually expose?
All of flyto-core's modules become MCP tools — the README states 467 modules across 78 categories, so 'your AI gets all modules as tools', plus helper tools like search_modules and validate_params.
How do I add it to Claude Code?
Install with `pip install flyto-core`, then run `claude mcp add flyto-core -- python -m core.mcp_server`, or add the mcpServers JSON block with command 'python' and args ['-m', 'core.mcp_server'] to your MCP config.
Is there an HTTP/remote transport?
Yes. `pip install flyto-core[api]` then `flyto serve` exposes an HTTP API including a POST /mcp endpoint using the MCP Streamable HTTP transport. A hosted deployment is also available on Fronteir AI.
