# NitroStack NitroStack provides a TypeScript SDK, CLI, desktop tools, and managed hosting for building, testing, and deploying MCP servers and MCP apps. - Findings24: - Website: - Pricing: Freemium - Categories: AI Agent Infrastructure, AI SDKs ## What is NitroStack? NitroStack is a development platform for building and operating applications based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Its TypeScript SDK and CLI help developers define MCP tools and scaffold projects; NitroStudio provides a desktop environment for inspecting and testing servers, while NitroCloud hosts MCP servers and apps. The platform is aimed at developers and teams creating custom tools and agent-connected applications, rather than only connecting to prebuilt MCP services. ## What can NitroStack do? ### TypeScript MCP SDK Define server tools with declarative decorators and Zod input schemas. The SDK also describes enterprise authentication modules and a production-oriented development workflow. ### API-to-MCP project generation In NitroStudio, provide a Swagger or OpenAPI URL or import a Postman Collection to generate a scaffolded MCP project with typed tools and detected schemas. ### Visual MCP inspection and testing Browse tools, resources, prompts, and tasks; inspect schemas, execute tools through forms, and preview widgets. ### AI workflow visibility NitroStudio's Ops Canvas displays tool calls and their order, with per-turn token usage and latency information to help developers inspect agent execution. ### Managed deployment and monitoring NitroCloud accepts deployments through GitHub, CLI, or ZIP, handles containerization and rollout, and provides autoscaling, live logs, and resource monitoring. ### Security and domain configuration NitroCloud supports custom domains with automatic SSL, encrypted secrets, JWT rotation, and role-based access control. NitroStudio lists OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and API-key authentication. ## Use Cases ### Create custom MCP tools Use the TypeScript SDK and CLI to define typed tools and scaffold a server for connecting an organization's own services or workflows to MCP clients. ### Turn an existing API into an MCP server Import an OpenAPI description or Postman Collection in NitroStudio to generate a project scaffold and tools from existing API endpoints. ### Debug a server before release Inspect the server's exposed tools and schemas, run tools interactively, review logs, and trace AI tool-call sequences in the desktop studio. ### Run multiple MCP servers during development Connect several servers in NitroStudio, retain independent sessions, and use its combined view to examine tools across projects. ### Deploy and observe an MCP application Push a project through NitroCloud's GitHub, CLI, or ZIP workflow, then use hosted logs and resource dashboards to observe its operation. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What does NitroStack include? The platform presents an MCP SDK and CLI for development, NitroStudio for desktop inspection and testing, and NitroCloud for managed hosting. NitroChat is also described as a white-label chat client for MCP servers. ### Which languages does the SDK support? The open-source NitroStack SDK supports TypeScript and Python. ### How can I deploy a project to NitroCloud? NitroCloud describes deployment from GitHub, the CLI, or a ZIP archive. Its Git-based workflow handles containerization and rollout. ### Can NitroStudio generate an MCP server from an existing API? Yes. NitroStudio can take a Swagger or OpenAPI URL or a Postman Collection and generate a scaffolded MCP project with typed tools. ## Quick Facts - **Category**: MCP development platform - **SDK**: TypeScript and Python - **Desktop development tool**: NitroStudio - **Managed hosting**: NitroCloud - **Primary users**: Developers building MCP servers, apps, and agent-connected workflows - **Website**: nitrostack.ai
