Public Chat

Give your MCP server a hosted, shareable chat interface.

Public Chat turns your server into a product anyone can try from a browser, no MCP client required. In the dashboard, open your server and go to Publish → Public Chat to configure it.

Public Chat requires the Hobby plan or higher.

Enabling Public Chat

  1. Toggle Public Chat on.
  2. Set a title and description override for the chat page.
  3. Optionally add suggested questions (up to 8) that appear as starter prompts; there's an AI button to generate them from your server's capabilities.

SEO metadata

The SEO Metadata card controls how your public chat page appears in search results and when shared on social networks:

  • Title and description — override the defaults pulled from your server's MCP metadata.
  • Generate with AI — drafts title and description from your server's tools and capabilities (also runs automatically the first time you enable Public Chat if both fields are empty).
  • OG image — upload a custom 1200×630 image, or use the auto-generated dynamic preview. Reset to revert to the default.
  • Google-style preview — shows how the page will look in search snippets before you publish.

The tab shows a live preview of the page, and once enabled your chat is available at your server's URL with a /chat path:

https://<slug>.run.mcp-use.com/chat

Verified custom domains work too: https://<your-domain>/chat.

Public transcripts

The Public transcripts table lists chat threads so you can see how visitors actually use your server: which questions they ask and which tools the agent invoked to answer them.

Servers that require authentication

If your server needs credentials, think carefully before exposing it through Public Chat: visitors interact with it using the server's configured access. The dashboard shows a security warning banner for this case.

When to use it

  • Demos: share a working MCP server with stakeholders or on social media.
  • Docs: let users try your tools before installing them in a client.
  • Validation: watch real conversations to refine tool names and descriptions before publish checks or generating a submission pack.
