README
MCP Proxy
A proxy for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that adds authentication, authorization, and enterprise features to any MCP backend. Transform your local MCP servers into secure, scalable services ready for remote access.
Motivation
MCP servers are often developed for local use with stdio transport, making them unsuitable for production environments where remote access, authentication, and scalability are required. MCP Proxy bridges this gap by providing a layer in front of any MCP server, enabling enterprise deployment while preserving the original MCP functionality.
