Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Rust: 1.70 or later (recommended 1.75+)
• Python: 3.8+ (for document-parser and voice-cli TTS)
• uv: Python package manager (install via curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh)

Installation

Method 1: Pre-built Binaries (Recommended)

Using installation script (Linux/macOS):

# Install mcp-proxy
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy/releases/latest/download/mcp-stdio-proxy-installer.sh | sh

# Install document-parser
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy/releases/latest/download/document-parser-installer.sh | sh

# Install voice-cli
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy/releases/latest/download/voice-cli-installer.sh | sh

Using installation script (Windows PowerShell):

# Install mcp-proxy
irm https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy/releases/latest/download/mcp-stdio-proxy-installer.ps1 | iex

# Install document-parser
irm https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy/releases/latest/download/document-parser-installer.ps1 | iex

# Install voice-cli

Method 2: cargo install

cargo install mcp-stdio-proxy

Method 3: Build from Source

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/nuwax-ai/mcp-proxy.git
cd mcp-proxy

# Build all workspace members
cargo build --release

# Or build specific crates
cargo build -p mcp-proxy
cargo build -p document-parser
cargo build -p voice-cli

MCP Proxy (mcp-stdio-proxy)

The main proxy service that converts SSE/Streamable HTTP to stdio protocol.

# Install from source
cargo install --path ./mcp-proxy

# Start the proxy server
mcp-proxy

# Convert remote MCP service to stdio
mcp-proxy convert https://example.com/mcp/sse

# Check service status
mcp-proxy check https://example.com/mcp/sse

# Detect protocol type
mcp-proxy detect https://example.com/mcp

See: mcp-proxy/README.md for detailed documentation.

Document Parser

High-performance document parsing service supporting PDF, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

cd document-parser

# Initialize Python environment (first time)
document-parser uv-init

# Check environment status
document-parser check

# Start HTTP server
document-parser server

See: document-parser/README.md for detailed documentation.

Voice CLI

Speech-to-text HTTP service with Whisper model support.

cd voice-cli

# Initialize server configuration
voice-cli server init

# Run voice server
voice-cli server run

# List Whisper models
voice-cli model list

# Download model
voice-cli model download tiny

See: voice-cli/README.md for detailed documentation.

Architecture

Core Services

1. MCP Proxy System

• mcp-common: Shared configuration types and utilities
• mcp-sse-proxy: SSE protocol support (rmcp 0.10)
• mcp-streamable-proxy: Streamable HTTP protocol support (rmcp 0.12)
• mcp-stdio-proxy: Main CLI tool for protocol conversion

Features:

• Multi-protocol support: SSE, Streamable HTTP, stdio
• Dynamic plugin loading
• Protocol auto-detection and conversion
• OpenTelemetry integration with OTLP
• Background health checks

2. Document Parser

Features:

• Multi-format support: PDF (MinerU), Word/Excel/PowerPoint (MarkItDown)
• GPU acceleration via CUDA/sglang (optional)
• Python environment management with uv
• HTTP API with OpenAPI documentation
• OSS integration for cloud storage

3. Voice CLI

Features:

• Whisper model integration (tiny/base/small/medium/large)
• Multi-format audio support (MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, etc.)
• Apalis-based async task queue with SQLite persistence
• FFmpeg integration for metadata extraction
• TTS service (TODO - currently has issues)

4. Utility Libraries

• oss-client: Alibaba Cloud OSS client with unified interface
• fastembed: Text embedding HTTP service using FastEmbed
