01
API Client
Send requests, import or export OpenAPI collections, manage workspace variables, and inspect responses.
Local-first backend workspace
Unfour combines API debugging, database inspection, SSH access, and MCP tools so backend developers can investigate issues with AI assistance while keeping the workflow local-first.
Backend issues rarely stop at one tool. Reproduce an API error, inspect server logs over SSH, query the database, and verify the fix without switching contexts.
Unfour brings the tools backend developers already use into a single local workspace, so every investigation starts with shared context.
01
Send requests, import or export OpenAPI collections, manage workspace variables, and inspect responses.
02
Connect to servers, browse and transfer remote files, and automate multi-step SSH tasks.
03
Browse tables, edit rows, and run single or multi-statement SQL during troubleshooting.
MCP integration
Unfour exposes approved local API, SSH, and database tools to MCP-compatible AI agents through a local MCP server. The MCP integration is available in preview.
✓ Expose approved tools to Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible agents through the local MCP server (preview).
✓ Turn API, SSH, and database actions into reusable troubleshooting tools; the local MCP server is available in preview.
✓ Keep the workflow AI-assisted, controlled, and local-first by design.
Architecture
Unfour is designed as a desktop app where connections and credentials stay on your machine. Workspace environments can separate development, testing, and production access.
✓ Local desktop app
✓ Credentials stay on your machine
✓ Workspace-based context
✓ Designed for environment-aware permissions
What to know about Unfour, who it is for, and how the local-first MCP direction is planned.
Unfour is a local-first developer workspace that combines API debugging, database inspection, SSH access, and MCP tools for AI-assisted troubleshooting.
