Why Toolport?
- Less context overhead. Agents search for tools when they need them insteadof loading every tool definition up front. See the benchmarks.
- One setup for every client. Add and authenticate each server once. Useprofiles to choose which servers each client can access.
- Keys stay local. Credentials live in your OS keychain, outside client configs.
- Control over tool calls. Disable tools, require approval for destructivecalls, and review activity in one place.
- Shared agent rules. Write instructions once and apply them to supportedclients, with a preview before changes are written.
Get started
- Download Toolport for Windows, macOS, or Linux.
