Connection Methods

Remote URL — paste https://app.civic.com/hub/mcp into the client’s MCP settings. Fastest setup, no local software needed.

Hub Bridge — local stdio proxy via npx -y @civic/hub-bridge@latest. Required for clients that only support stdio/local MCP servers. Needs Node.js 18+.

mcp-remote — npx mcp-remote bridges stdio clients to HTTP. Used by JetBrains. Needs Node.js 20+.
