ServBay

ServBay is an AI-native local development platform that redefines how developers build, test, and manage web applications. By combining a rich suite of pre-configured web packages with cutting-edge AI infrastructure, ServBay serves as the ultimate local base for both developers and AI coding agents (such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex).

🚀 Brand New: AI-Native Capabilities ServBay MCP Server (Model Context Protocol): Seamlessly bridge your local environment with AI coding agents. AI agents can now interact directly with ServBay using standard MCP to create sites, configure SSL/DNS, query databases, switch PHP/Node.js versions, and read logs—turning AI from a chatbot into a hands-on assistant. Fully supported on both macOS and Windows. Local & Secure AI Gateway: Stop scattering API keys across different projects. Centralize all your LLM connections (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, and local Ollama) into a single, locally-encrypted endpoint. Keep your keys safe on your machine, track token usage and budgets via a unified dashboard, and set up automatic fallback models to ensure zero downtime. Remote Companion App (iOS & Android): Free yourself from your desk. Monitor long-running agent tasks, approve or deny execution requests (like file changes or terminal commands), restart databases, and generate temporary public URLs to share website previews—all from your mobile phone.

🛠? Comprehensive Web Technology Stack ServBay comes bundled with a massive collection of development runtimes and databases, allowing multiple versions to coexist and switch seamlessly:

Multiple Languages: Native support for PHP, Node.js, Python, Go, Java, .NET, Ruby, Rust, and more, with instant version switching. Relational & NoSQL Databases: Out-of-the-box support for MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and Memcached. Web Servers: Switch freely between NGINX, Apache, and Caddy. Essential Utilities: Built-in dnsmasq for instant local domain resolution, Mailpit for local email testing, MinIO for object storage, and RabbitMQ for message queue development.

🔒 Enterprise-Grade Features & Local HTTPS Built-in PKI & SSL: Manage SSL certificates effortlessly using the ACME protocol for automatic local HTTPS. Precompiled Extensions: A wide selection of precompiled extension modules, saving you from tedious manual compilation steps. Modern Protocols: Native HTTP/2, HTTP/3, and CORS support to facilitate modern front-end/back-end separation and debugging.

🧹 Clean, Non-Intrusive, and Portable ServBay is designed to keep your operating system pristine. It never modifies your system’s global environment variables. Everything—including packages, configuration files, websites, and databases—is neatly organized inside the /Applications/ServBay directory. Backing up, migrating, or uninstalling is as simple as copying or deleting a single folder.

Say goodbye to environment configuration headaches and embrace the future of AI-driven development with ServBay.
