Let AI drive every plugin through one MCP endpoint

Connect any AI coding tool — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor — to the OTools host MCP gateway and orchestrate tasks across plugins, instead of wiring each tool separately.

OTools is a platform

Most plugins are ported from open-source projects — port the one you need

OTools is not one big all-in-one app — it is an extensible desktop plugin platform. A good share of the official plugins started as excellent open-source projects: ported into OTools they run cross-platform, need no install, and are drivable by a single MCP. Missing a tool? Just port it.
