Save and share anything from your AI chats with permanent links

What is MCPH?

MCPH (Model Context Protocol Hub) is an AI artifact storage and sharing platform that lets you save and share anything from your AI chats with permanent links. One click in Claude or ChatGPT creates a shareable link that works everywhere.

Key benefits:

  • Never lose AI creations - Everything saved permanently and searchable
  • Share with one link - No login required for viewers to access content
  • Works in Claude & ChatGPT Pro+ - Direct integration with your favorite AI tools
  • Simple access model - Upload requires login, viewing doesn't
  • Complete AI workflow ecosystem - Recipe, Text, Images, Code, Data, and Polls

✨How It Works

🔑

1. Sign in with Google

Quick setup - no passwords to remember

🔌

2. Connect to AI tools

Works with Claude, ChatGPT Pro+, and others

💫

3. Save & share anything

One command creates shareable links instantly

MCPH is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which enables AI models to maintain and share context across interactions.

Using MCPH with AI Assistants

MCPH tools integrate with AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT to provide seamless file management through natural conversation. You can manage your files without learning commands or APIs—just speak naturally about what you want to do.

💬Natural Language Commands

Managing Files:

  • "Show me my files" / "List what I have stored"
  • "Find my report about sales" / "Search for meeting notes"
  • "Save this document" / "Store this analysis for me"
  • "Delete that old file" / "Remove the draft version"

Sharing & Access:

  • "Make this public" / "Share this with others"
  • "Give me a shareable link" / "I want to share this document"
  • "Make this private again" / "Stop sharing this file"

Viewing Content:

  • "Show me that document" / "Open my project notes"
  • "What's in that file?" / "Display the contract"

🧠Contextual Understanding

The AI remembers what you're working on within conversations:

User: "Write a meeting summary"

AI: [Creates summary]

User: "Save it"

AI: "I've saved your meeting summary to your files"

User: "Actually, share it with the team"

AI: "Made it public. Here's the link: https://mcph.io/crate/..."

⭐Key Benefits

  • No learning curve - talk about files naturally
  • Persistent storage - files remain accessible across sessions indefinitely
  • Smart search - AI finds files using keywords and context
  • Instant sharing - generate public links with simple requests
  • Cross-session continuity - reference files from previous conversations
  • Automatic organization - files are tagged with metadata for easy retrieval

🔗Simple Access Model

🔒 Upload = Login Required

You need a Google account to save and organize your AI creations

🌐 View = No Login Needed

Anyone with a public link can view shared content instantly

Getting Started

Quick Reference

  • Web Interface: mcph.io
  • MCP Endpoint: https://api.mcph.io/mcp
  • View Shared Content: https://mcph.io/crate/[id]

Step 1: Create an Account

Visit mcph.io and sign up for a free account. After logging in, navigate to the API Keys section to generate your personal API key. You'll need this to connect AI tools to your MCPH account.

For Non-Logged In Users

You can use MCPH without creating an account, but with some limitations:

  • Secure uploads are available through AI assistants that support MCP
  • Limited management - you can't search, organize, or manage your files
  • No MCP all tools access - you can only use the crates_get tool to get a crate by its ID. You cannot use the other tools.

To get the most out of MCPH, we recommend creating a free account.

Step 2: Connect Your AI Tool

MCPH works with any AI tool that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). For ChatGPT, this requires Pro or higher plans. The basic steps for connecting any AI tool are:

Essential Information

  • Get the MCP URL: https://api.mcph.io/mcp

    This is the endpoint you'll need to configure in your AI tool.

  • Get your API Key: Available from your MCPH account dashboard

    Log in to mcph.io and navigate to the API Keys section to generate or retrieve your key.

  • Configure your AI tool: Set up the MCP server in your tool's settings

    Each AI tool has a different configuration process. Most tools have a dedicated section for MCP server configuration where you'll enter the URL and API key.

Key Notes

  • The specific configuration steps vary by tool (ChatGPT, Claude, custom AI applications, etc.)
  • Authenticated user uploads have no expiration
  • All generated download links expire in 24 hours

For detailed, tool-specific configuration instructions, refer to your AI tool's documentation for MCP setup. Most major AI tools that support MCP have similar configuration processes.

Step 3: Create and Share Content

Once connected, you can ask your AI to create and share content via MCPH. For example:

"Create a markdown guide explaining user authentication best practices and share it via MCPH."

The AI will create the content and provide you with a shareable link that looks like:https://mcph.io/crate/abc123

Share this link with anyone - they don't need an account to view the content.

How the MCP Endpoint Works

The MCP endpoint (/mcp) is the only supported way to interact with MCPH programmatically. It uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) over Streamable HTTP for real-time, bidirectional communication.

  1. Connect via Streamable HTTP: Use npx mcp-remote https://api.mcph.io/mcp or configure your client to use the endpoint.
  2. Authentication: Pass your API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.
  3. Session: On connect, you receive a session ID in the MCP-Session-ID response header. All subsequent requests must include this ID in the MCP-Session-ID header.
  4. Calling Tools: Send JSON-RPC requests to the endpoint. Example for crates/list:
    
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "crates/list",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
    The response will be streamed using Streamable HTTP, with content delivered as chunks in the HTTP response.

For more details, see the mcp-remote documentation or the MCP protocol reference.
