Red Hat MCP server questions

Does Red Hat have an official MCP server?

Yes. Red Hat publishes its MCP server itself. Red Hat's own documentation describes it. MartechDB only lists servers a vendor publishes, never community copies.

Is there a hosted Red Hat MCP server?

No. Red Hat's MCP server runs on your own computer, from the Docker image ghcr.io/redhatinsights/red-hat-lightspeed-mcp. Your AI client starts it for you once it is set up.

Does the Red Hat MCP server need an API key?

Yes. You create an API key in your Red Hat account and give it to your AI client.

How do I connect Red Hat MCP to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

In Cursor, use the Add to Cursor link on MartechDB's page, or paste the JSON settings into your mcp.json. In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add red-hat -- docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/redhatinsights/red-hat-lightspeed-mcp

Is the Red Hat MCP server in the official MCP Registry?

No. Red Hat hasn't published it to the official MCP Registry.
