Conduit is a local-first gateway that puts every MCP server behind one endpoint shared by all your AI coding tools (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, and more). Set up and authenticate each server once, then connect every client to Conduit instead of re-adding servers everywhere. Keys stay in your OS keychain (never in client configs), lazy discovery exposes just 3 meta-tools so your agent's context stays small no matter how many servers you add, and you can toggle servers on/off live without restarting the client. Proxies both local (stdio) and remote (http/SSE) servers, with a built-in audit log and tool playground. No Docker, no cloud, no account. Free and open source (MIT). Windows, macOS, and Linux.
