FAQ from VISO TRUST MCP Server

Does VISO TRUST MCP Server require self-hosting?

No. VISO TRUST hosts a managed instance at https://mcp.visotrust.com/mcp which you can connect to directly with any MCP client using Streamable HTTP.

What are the runtime requirements for self-hosting?

Java 21+ and Gradle are required. Docker is optional but recommended for containerized deployment.

Where does data live when using the hosted server?

Data is processed through VISO TRUST’s API. The server itself does not persist data; it acts as a bridge to the VISO TRUST API.

What transport protocols are supported?

The hosted server uses Streamable HTTP. Self-hosted deployments can use either Streamable HTTP (remote profile) or standard I/O (default profile). Legacy SSE is no longer supported.

How do I authenticate with the VISO TRUST MCP Server?

Provide a VISO TRUST API token either as a Bearer token in client headers for the hosted server or via the VISOTRUST_API_TOKEN environment variable for self-hosted instances.
