opengist-mcpYour gists, in the model context

An MCP server for Opengist, the self-hosted pastebin powered by Git — read, search, create, update and delete gists on your own instance.

How opengist-mcp sits between an MCP client and an Opengist instanceThe MCP client speaks stdio to opengist-mcp, which calls the Opengist REST API over HTTPS with a bearer token. Every response passes through a shaping layer that bounds it and marks it as untrusted, and destructive calls pass through a confirmation gate.MCP clientClaude, Codex, …stdioopengist-mcptools14 registeredconfirmationsingle-use tokensshapingallowlist · size budgets · untrusted markersHTTPSBearer og_…Opengist/api · your instanceevery response is shaped, bounded and marked before it reaches the model
The token never leaves this process, and nothing the API returns reaches the model unshaped.
