Namespaces

A namespace is a container for organizing your resources on Smithery. Every server, connection, and skill you create belongs to a namespace. Namespaces appear in URLs and qualified names. For example, a server published under the acme namespace with the slug weather is accessible at smithery.ai/server/acme/weather.

Sharing and collaboration

Namespaces act as a shared workspace. Resources within a namespace can be managed by anyone with the appropriate API key scoped to that namespace, making them suitable for team collaboration similar to project IDs.
