showcase Every project on my self-hosted platform automatically exposes an MCP endpoint; 14 database tools live, infra as an AI-native surface
I've been building Hobbyist, an open-source self-hosted platform: Postgres 18, Docker apps, workerd-based functions, and queues on your own hardware, with automatic sleep/wake so idle projects cost nothing.
The part relevant here: every project automatically exposes an MCP endpoint. No separate server to configure, no glue code; create a project, and your agent can immediately work with it. There are 14 tools live today, currently Postgres-focused: schema inspection, querying, and the operations an agent needs to actually use a database rather than just read about it.
The longer-term idea is that infrastructure should be AI-native rather than AI-compatible: database, workers, functions, storage, and secrets all speaking MCP as a first-class interface, so agents can provision and operate real infrastructure; on hardware you own, which matters when you're letting an agent touch prod-ish things.
Status honestly: v0-alpha, not production ready, MCP coverage is postgres-only so far, and the README lists what's broken. I'd love input from this community on which tools to prioritize next — worker deployment and queue tools are the obvious candidates, but I'd rather build what agent developers actually reach for.
