Add my server

Install Hostim in Continue

What you need first

  • Continue, installed.
  • Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
  • Your own value for YOUR_HOSTIM_TOKEN.

Steps

  1. Open ~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml.
  2. Add this entry. If the file already has mcpServers, add only the item from - name on.
mcpServers:
  - name: "hostim"
    type: stdio
    command: "docker"
    args:
      - "run"
      - "-i"
      - "--rm"
      - "-e"
      - "HOSTIM_TOKEN"
      - "ghcr.io/hostimdev/cli:v0.1.52"
      - "mcp"
    env:
      "HOSTIM_TOKEN": "YOUR_HOSTIM_TOKEN"
  1. Replace YOUR_HOSTIM_TOKEN with your own value.
  2. Save the file and restart Continue.

Check it worked

Ask Continue: List the tools of hostim.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon
Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Continue.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
Nothing changes after a restart
The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
