What the publisher says

From the q-ring repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

q-ring

OS keychain secrets for AI coding agents, over MCP.

Stop pasting API keys into plain-text .env files or wrestling with clunky secret managers. q-ring securely anchors your credentials to your OS's native vault (macOS Keychain, Linux Secret Service, Windows Credential Vault) and supercharges them with mechanics from quantum physics.

📖 View the Official Documentation for a complete CLI reference, MCP prompt cookbooks, and architecture details.

Why q-ring?

  • Superposition: Store one key with multiple states (dev/staging/prod) that collapse based on context.
  • Entanglement: Link keys across projects so rotating one automatically updates them all.
  • Tunneling: Create ephemeral, in-memory secrets that self-destruct after a set time or read count.
  • Teleportation: Securely pack and share AES-256-GCM encrypted secret bundles.
  • Seamless AI Integration: 44 built-in MCP tools for native use in Cursor, Kiro, and Claude Code.

🚀 Installation

q-ring is designed to be installed globally so it's available anywhere in your terminal. Pick your favorite package manager:

# pnpm (recommended)
pnpm add -g @i4ctime/q-ring

# npm
npm install -g @i4ctime/q-ring

# yarn
yarn global add @i4ctime/q-ring

# Homebrew (macOS / Linux)
brew install i4ctime/tap/qring

Docker (MCP server)

The repo ships a Dockerfile that builds the MCP server and exposes it through mcp-proxy — useful for hosted MCP deployments (e.g. Glama) or keeping the server off the host entirely:

git clone https://github.com/I4cTime/q-ring.git
cd q-ring
docker build -t qring-mcp .
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 qring-mcp

q-ring: common questions

Is q-ring MCP server safe?
With care: it is graded C, so read the findings first (65/100). Read the q-ring safety report
How do I install q-ring?
It runs on your machine. Copy the Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Cursor config from the install section.
Does q-ring need an API key?
Yes. The registry entry asks for QRING_FILE_PASSPHRASE.
Is q-ring maintained?
The last commit was 5 days ago (2026-09-16). The latest release is v0.17.6.
What can I use instead of q-ring?
Servers from other publishers that do the same job: Deja Vu MCP server.
