AI cloud for agents: launch GPUs, run jobs that stop their own billing, schedule runs.

What it can do

Common questions

Is Runcrate safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.5.1) reached the registry 3 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Runcrate MCP

Give your AI agent GPUs. Runcrate is the AI cloud for developers and agents: connect it once, then ask in plain words. Your agent sees live GPU prices, launches a GPU on a ready image, runs your command as a job whose machine stops (and stops billing) when the command exits, schedules runs, moves files, and checks your spend.

Server: https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp (streamable HTTP)
Sign-in: OAuth in your browser. No key to copy, nothing to paste into a config file.
Tools for instances, clusters, jobs, schedules, files, volumes, firewall and HTTPS links, billing, environments and secret names. Tool reference

You pick one environment when you sign in. The agent acts only there, and that environment's monthly budget caps what it can spend.

Connect your agent

Paste this one line into your agent: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, OpenCode, or any agent that can run a command. It adds the server to itself, and its first Runcrate tool call opens your browser to sign in.

Add Runcrate's MCP server to yourself: run curl -fsSL "https://runcrate.ai/mcp.md" and follow it.

Or one click:

In Claude Code, the plugin adds the server and a skill that teaches Claude how to spend safely: /plugin marketplace add runcrateai/runcrate-mcp, then /plugin install runcrate@runcrate. In Gemini CLI: gemini extensions install https://github.com/runcrateai/runcrate-mcp.

The same skill installs into Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents that read Agent Skills: npx skills add runcrateai/runcrate-mcp --skill runcrate. It teaches your agent to check live prices (https://www.runcrate.ai/pricing.md), run work with a max runtime, stop what it started, and top up when the balance runs low.

Claude and ChatGPT on the web can't run a command, so they take the URL as a custom connector (steps below).

Set it up by hand

With the Runcrate CLI, one command connects every client it finds on your machine:

runcrate mcp install

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user runcrate https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp

Then run /mcp in Claude Code and pick runcrate: your browser opens to sign in.

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

Open Settings > Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
Name it Runcrate and paste https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp.
Choose Connect and sign in to Runcrate in the window that opens.

ChatGPT

Open chatgpt.com/plugins, choose +, then Add custom MCP server.
Name it Runcrate and paste https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp as the URL, with OAuth.
Create it, sign in to Runcrate, then mention @Runcrate in a chat.

Codex

codex mcp add runcrate --url https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp

Codex opens your browser to sign in. Closed it? Run codex mcp login runcrate.

Windsurf and Devin

Run runcrate mcp install --client windsurf, or add a server in Cascade's MCP settings with the URL https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp. Devin CLI: devin mcp add -s user runcrate https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp, then devin mcp login runcrate.

Zed, Warp, Goose, Raycast and any other MCP client

Give the client the URL https://mcp.runcrate.ai/mcp and choose OAuth (dynamic registration). It signs you in through your browser on first use.

Try it

Launch an H100 with the Finetune crate and run nvidia-smi.

Run python train.py on an A100 as a job, at most 2 hours, and follow the logs.
