Source: https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/arcade Site: Agent MCP Directory Last reviewed: 2026-11-05 # Arcade: MCP vendor profile Arcade is an actions runtime that handles OAuth and user tokens and enforces policy on every agent tool call across 7,500+ tools; it acquired Smithery, the public MCP registry and hosting service, in August 2026, as documented by the vendor. ## At a glance | Listed as | Arcade (and Smithery) | | --- | --- | | Type | Connector platforms | | Also covers | auth provider, registry or directory | | Home | www.arcade.dev | | Price | platform fee plus per tool call; no published price for its other products | | Read | 5 November 2026 | ## What it does for this layer Arcade.dev announced on 5 Aug 2026 that it acquired Smithery and that Smithery co-founder Anirudh Kamath joined Arcade ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/blog/smithery-joins-arcade)). Arcade calls itself "the actions runtime between your agents and every system they reach", one control point to enforce, execute and govern actions ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/)). Arcade publishes a remote MCP server at https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/arcade for clients that support remote HTTP MCP and browser sign-in; that route includes tools only, without skills or commands ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/)). Arcade installs as a plugin in Claude Code, Codex and Copilot CLI from the ArcadeAI/arcade-plugin marketplace repository ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/)). Arcade's Free plan has no platform fee and 2,000 tool calls a month; Team is 25 USD a month plus 0.01 USD per tool call ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/pricing)). Arcade Enterprise offers deployment on Arcade Cloud, in the customer's VPC or fully air-gapped ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/pricing)). Arcade's docs cover server-level versus tool-level authorization and an Arcade MCP framework for building MCP servers ([docs.arcade.dev](https://docs.arcade.dev/)). Arcade's announcement describes Smithery as "a leading public registry and hosting platform for MCP" ([www.arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/blog/smithery-joins-arcade), vendor's own claim). Arcade's docs say it handles OAuth, manages user tokens, enforces security policies and executes across "7,500+ agent-optimized tools" ([docs.arcade.dev](https://docs.arcade.dev/), vendor's own claim). ## Products and plans | Product | What it does | Price | | --- | --- | --- | | Arcade runtime | Tool execution, OAuth and policy for agents across Arcade's tool catalog. | platform fee plus per tool call; from 25 USD; Free: 2,000 tool calls a month (source, as of 5 November 2026) | | Arcade MCP framework | Framework and quickstart for building MCP servers. | price not read | | Smithery | Public MCP registry and hosting, acquired 5 Aug 2026. | price not read | ## Checks on its own domain | Check | Domain | Result | Scanned | Method | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Ora cached score | arcade.dev | 89 of 100, grade A | 1 November 2026 | how it was taken | | Cloudflare agent-readiness scan | arcade.dev | 67 of 100, L5 Agent-Native; 10 of 15 counted checks passed | 5 November 2026 | how it was taken | ## What it does not do - Arcade does not publish a separate price for Smithery on the pages read. ## Related on this site Hosts page - [Smithery](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/hosts/smithery/) Type - [Connector platforms](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/by-type/connector-platform/) - [Auth providers](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/by-type/auth-provider/) - [Registries and directories](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/by-type/registry/) Section - [All vendors](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/) Edition 4 November 2026 Method [How rows are verified](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/method/) Data [CSV and JSON](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/data/) Markdown [This page as markdown](https://agentmcpdirectory.com/vendors/arcade/index.md) ## Sources - [Arcade: The Actions Runtime for Enterprise AI Agents](https://www.arcade.dev/), read 5 November 2026 - [Smithery Is Now Part of Arcade.dev](https://www.arcade.dev/blog/smithery-joins-arcade), read 5 November 2026 - [Arcade Docs](https://docs.arcade.dev/), read 5 November 2026 - [Pricing | Arcade](https://www.arcade.dev/pricing), read 5 November 2026 Last reviewed 5 November 2026
