mcpocket

Your AI setup. Every pocket. ✨

mcpocket syncs your Claude Code agents, skills, plugins, and MCP server configurations across machines — so your full AI loadout follows you everywhere, like magic.

The Problem

You install 8 MCP servers, configure your Claude Code plugins, and build up a library of agents on your Linux workstation. Then you switch to your Windows laptop and… nothing. You start from scratch. Again.

mcpocket fixes that with two commands: push from your source machine, pull on any other.

Features

  • Multi-client sync — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, OpenCode, Copilot CLI, Cursor, Codex, and Antigravity configs in one shot
  • Two storage backends — private GitHub repo (full git history) or lightweight GitHub Gist
  • Provider-scoped sync — target one or more providers with flags like --copilot-cli or --opencode
  • End-to-end encryption — secrets in MCP env, headers, and http_headers are encrypted with AES-256-GCM using a passphrase you choose
  • Cross-platform paths — Windows ↔ Linux ↔ macOS paths round-trip seamlessly
  • Additive pull — pulling merges remote servers into your local config without overwriting anything
  • De-duplicated file sync — push/pull mirror synced files so stale agent, skill, and plugin files don't pile up
  • Zero dependencies on external services — only GitHub and Git

Install

npm install -g mcpocket

Or with pnpm / yarn:

pnpm add -g mcpocket
# or
yarn global add mcpocket

Quick Start

# 1. Initialize (once per machine)
mcpocket init

# 2. Push your setup to the cloud
mcpocket push

# 3. Pull on a new machine
mcpocket pull

# 4. Clean up stale synced files if needed
mcpocket de-dupe

# 5. Check sync status
mcpocket status

Commands

mcpocket init

Interactive setup wizard. Links your GitHub account, chooses a storage backend, and creates the remote pocket.

$ mcpocket init

  ✦ First, let's link your GitHub account.
  Required scopes: repo (full control of private repositories)

  🔑 GitHub token: ****

  ✦ Authenticated as davidsmorais — nice to meet you!

  ✦ Where should mcpocket store your config?
      [1] GitHub repo  (private repo, full git history)
      [2] GitHub gist  (lighter, no git clone needed)

  Pick one [1/2]: 1

Storage options:

| Option | Backend | Requires Git? | History | |---|---|---|---| | 1 — Repo | Private mcpocket-sync repo | Yes | Full git log | | 2 — Gist | Private GitHub Gist | No | Gist revisions |

Requires a GitHub personal access token with repo scope (for repo mode) or gist scope (for gist mode).

mcpocket push

Reads MCP configs, plugin manifests, agents, and skills from the current machine. Encrypts secrets with a passphrase you choose, then uploads to your private pocket.

mcpocket push

Target specific providers by passing one or more flags:

mcpocket push --copilot-cli
mcpocket push --cursor --codex

When provider flags are present, they scope the whole command:

  • Only the selected providers' MCP configs are read and packed into mcp-config.json

  • Claude home assets (~/.claude/plugins, ~/.claude/agents, ~/.claude/skills) are only synced when --claude-code is included

  • In repo mode: commits and pushes to your private GitHub repo.

  • In gist mode: uploads files to your private GitHub Gist (directory structure is flattened with __ separators).

mcpocket pull

Downloads your config from the remote pocket, decrypts secrets with your passphrase, and writes everything to the appropriate client config files:

mcpocket pull

You can also pull into only the providers you want:

mcpocket pull --opencode
mcpocket pull --cursor --copilot-cli

With provider flags, pull only writes MCP servers to those selected providers. Claude home assets are only restored when --claude-code is included.

| Client | Config file | |---|---| | Claude Desktop | claude_desktop_config.json | | Claude Code | ~/.claude/settings.json | | OpenCode | ~/.config/opencode/config.json | | Copilot CLI | VS Code/Copilot user mcp.json | | Cursor | ~/.cursor/mcp.json | | Codex | ~/.codex/config.toml | | Antigravity | ~/.gemini/antigravity/mcp_config.json |

Pull is additive — it adds servers that exist remotely but not locally, without overwriting your existing local config. Restart Claude Desktop after pulling to apply MCP changes.

For synced files, pull also removes stale agent and skill files that were previously synced but no longer exist in your pocket.

mcpocket de-dupe

Refreshes the pocket, mirrors the current synced files, removes stale duplicates on both sides, and writes the cleaned result back to your configured backend.

mcpocket de-dupe

Use this if you already have duplicate or renamed agent/skill/plugin files from earlier syncs. In normal use, push and pull now keep these folders de-duplicated automatically.

mcpocket status

Shows a diff of what's synced, what's local-only, and what's remote-only:

mcpocket status

  ── MCP Servers ──

    Synced:
      ✓ filesystem
      ✓ github

    Local only (run push):
      ↑ sqlite

    In pocket, not here (run pull):
      ↓ postgres

What Gets Synced

| Category | Source | Details | |---|---|---| | MCP server configs | Claude Desktop, Claude Code, OpenCode, Copilot CLI, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity | Merged across all selected providers | | Plugin manifests | ~/.claude/plugins/ | installed_plugins.json, blocklist.json, known_marketplaces.json | | Agents | ~/.claude/agents/ | All *.md files, recursively | | Skills | ~/.claude/skills/ | All files, recursively (excluding node_modules) |

If you do not pass provider flags, push and pull operate on every supported provider. If you do pass flags, only those providers participate in the command.

Never Synced

  • .credentials.json
  • plugins/cache/
  • Sessions and telemetry data
  • Your GitHub token (stays in local ~/.mcpocket/config.json)

Security

| Concern | How mcpocket handles it | |---|---| | API keys & tokens | Encrypted with AES-256-GCM (via scrypt key derivation) before leaving your machine | | Passphrase storage | Never stored — you enter it on every push/pull | | Remote storage | Always private (private repo or secret gist) | | Local config | ~/.mcpocket/config.json is chmod 600 on Linux/macOS | | Git auth | Token is injected at runtime into HTTPS URLs, never persisted in git config | | Error output | Git errors are sanitized to strip tokens before display |

Encryption Format

Encrypted values are stored as:

ENCRYPTED:<iv_hex>:<salt_hex>:<authTag_hex>:<ciphertext_hex>

Each value uses a unique random salt and IV, so identical plaintext values produce different ciphertexts.

Path Handling

mcpocket normalizes paths for portability:

| Direction | Transformation | |---|---| | Push | /home/user/... or C:\Users\user\... → ~/... | | Pull | ~/... → platform-native absolute path | | Commands | .cmd / .exe extensions stripped on push, restored on pull (Windows) |

This means a config pushed from Linux works on Windows and vice versa.

Configuration

mcpocket stores its own config at ~/.mcpocket/config.json:

{
  "githubToken": "ghp_...",
  "storageType": "repo",       // "repo" or "gist"
  // Repo mode:
  "repoFullName": "user/mcpocket-sync",
  "repoCloneUrl": "https://github.com/user/mcpocket-sync.git",
  "repoHtmlUrl": "https://github.com/user/mcpocket-sync",
  // Gist mode:
  "gistId": "abc123...",
  "gistUrl": "https://gist.github.com/abc123..."
}

The local repo clone (used as a staging area) lives at ~/.mcpocket/repo/.

Requirements

  • Node.js 18+
  • Git in PATH (repo mode only — gist mode doesn't need git)
  • A GitHub account with a personal access token

Troubleshooting

"mcpocket is not initialized"

Run mcpocket init first to set up your GitHub connection and storage backend.

"Decryption failed — wrong passphrase"

The passphrase you entered doesn't match the one used during mcpocket push. Passphrases are never stored — you need to remember the one you used.

Push says "Nothing changed"

Your local config matches what's already in the remote pocket. No commit/upload needed.

MCP servers not appearing after pull

Restart Claude Desktop to reload MCP server configurations. Claude Code and OpenCode pick up changes automatically.

Git errors on push/pull (repo mode)

Make sure git is installed and in your PATH. If you see auth errors, your GitHub token may have expired — run mcpocket init to re-authenticate.
