LocalCan 3.0 Beta 10 is out, and it ships a Free plan. Put localhost on a Public URL in one click: → 60-min sessions, 1 GB/month → No credit card → No interstitial warning page for your visitors, ever → MCP server included, so your AI agent can open and manage tunnels too

LocalCan 3.0 Beta 8 is released! What's new: Access Control: Add password protection, secret links, or IP rules to any Public URL. Enforced server-side, so your protection stays active even when your laptop is off. Works with Snapshots too. Available in subscription plans.

LocalCan 3.0 beta.6 is out. Your AI agent can now drive LocalCan over MCP: → "expose port 3000" and it hands back a Public URL → "why did this webhook fail?" and it reads the actual request your app received → pause, resume, or remove URLs when it's done

A webhook fired while your local server was down? Until now that request was just gone. LocalCan 3.0 beta 5 captures the full request body on those 502s, so you can inspect and replay what you missed once your server is back up. Also: fixes for 2.x migration + UI polish.

Adding OAuth to your MCP server? Plot twist: you're not the OAuth client like in a normal app. Your server has to be the authorization server. Full working walkthrough 👇 www.localcan.com/blog/mcp-ser...

Add OAuth 2.1 to Your MCP Server (and Why the URL Has to Stay Put) - Blog - LocalCan™
Secure an MCP server with OAuth 2.1 using Scalekit, connect it to Claude, and see why a stable public URL is non-negotiable for the OAuth callback.

We took an MCP server from localhost stdio to live in Claude on a phone, and wrote down every step. TypeScript, Streamable HTTP, a real cert, no deploy. How to do the same 👇

Continuing the work on (1) editing domains, (2) adding Basic Auth, and (3) the ability to set custom request headers. The latter will allow passing requests to another proxy like Laravel Herd. Which feature would be the most useful to you?
