This is the install method the repository states, not an MCP client config, so no JSON is generated.

Ask Nhost Guru (third party, unofficial)
Nhost is an open source Firebase alternative with GraphQL, built with the following things in mind:
Open Source
GraphQL
SQL
Great Developer Experience
Nhost consists of open source software:
Database: PostgreSQL
Instant GraphQL API: Hasura
Authentication: Auth
Storage: Storage
Serverless Functions: Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript)
Nhost CLI for local development
MCP server built into the CLI, for AI coding assistants
## Architecture of Nhost
Visit https://docs.nhost.io for the complete documentation.
# Get Started
## Option 1: Nhost Hosted Platform
1. Sign in to Nhost.
2. Create Nhost app.
3. Done.
## Option 2: Local Development (CLI)
The Nhost CLI is the easiest way to start developing locally. It sets up a local environment that tracks database migrations and Hasura metadata.
Install the CLI:
macOS / Linux: brew install nhost/tap/nhost or curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nhost/nhost/main/cli/get.sh | bash
Nix: nix profile install github:nhost/nhost#cli
npm / pnpm / Yarn / Bun: npm install -D @nhost/cli,
pnpm add -D @nhost/cli, yarn add -D @nhost/cli, or
bun add -d @nhost/cli
Start building:
bash
nhost login
nhost init
nhost up
Read the full CLI Quickstart guide.
Connect your AI assistant (MCP):
The CLI ships with a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Your assistant can read the GraphQL schema, run the queries and mutations you allow, update Nhost Cloud project configuration, search the Nhost docs, and in local development manage metadata, permissions, and migrations. Works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
bash
claude mcp add nhost nhost mcp start
See the MCP Server docs for other clients and access settings.
## Option 3: Self-hosting
Since Nhost is 100% open source, you can self-host the whole Nhost stack. Check out the example docker-compose file to self-host Nhost.
## Sign In and Make a GraphQL Request
Install the @nhost/nhost-js package and start building your app:
ts
import { createClient } from '@nhost/nhost-js'
const nhost = createClient({
subdomain: 'your-project',
region: 'eu-central-1'
})
await nhost.auth.signInEmailPassword({
email: 'user@example.com',
password: ' '
})
await nhost.graphql.request({
query:
query GetUsers {
users {
id
displayName
email
})
## Frontend Agnostic
Nhost is frontend agnostic, which means Nhost works with all frontend frameworks.
# Resources
Start developing locally with the Nhost CLI
Connect AI assistants to your projects with the Nhost MCP server
