what it does

Combines multiple MCP servers into a single interface with smart search and discovery, reducing context size by providing unified 'discover' and 'execute' methods instead of exposing hundreds of individual tools.

Meta MCP Proxy

A flexible Model Context Protocol (MCP) proxy that enables discovery and execution of tools across multiple MCP servers and JavaScript functions. Enabling to have a reduced context event if you have houndreds of tools. This mcp act as wrapper of other mcps (or libraries) doing a kind of Local RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) to reduce the context size providing the llm with 2 methods (discover and execute) and asking the llm to be concise about discovery. The execute method is a simple proxy

We extremely recommends add the configuration discoverDescriptionExtras to extends in details about the purpose of the tools and for what kind of topics the llm should use it.

Features

  • 🌉 Unified Tool Discovery: Search for tools across multiple MCP servers
  • 🔌 Proxy Execution: Route tool calls to the appropriate server
  • 🔍 Smart Search: Find the best tool for the job with fuzzy matching
  • 🧩 JavaScript Integration: Expose custom JavaScript functions as MCP tools
  • 📝 Configurable: Load configuration from files or command-line arguments

Usage

🧱 Installation

Edit your file ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

and add the following

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-openapi-proxy": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@nullplatform/meta-mcp-proxy","-f","config.json"]
    }
  }
}

Configuration File Format

Your config.json should follow this structure:

{
  "discoverDescriptionExtras": "Additional description for discovery",
  "discoverLimit": 10,
  "mcpServers": {
    "server-name": {
      "command": "command-to-execute",
      "args": ["arg1", "arg2"],
      "env": {
        "ENV_VAR1": "value1",
        "ENV_VAR2": "value2"
      },
      "transport": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

as example

{
  "discoverDescriptionExtras": "Api used to manage a pet store with access to pets, pet types, users, orders and store",
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-petstore": {
        "command": "uvx",
        "args": ["mcp-openapi-proxy"],
        "env": {
            "OPENAPI_SPEC_URL": "https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json",
            "API_KEY": "xxxxx"
       }
    }
  }
}

As a Library

You can also use Meta MCP Proxy as a library in your own JavaScript applications:

import { MCPProxy } from '@nullplatform/meta-mcp-proxy';

// Create a new proxy instance
const mcpProxy = new MCPProxy({
  mcpServers: {
    "my-server": {
      "command": "path/to/server",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    }
  },
  discoverLimit: 10
});

// Register a custom JavaScript function
mcpProxy.registerJsFunction(
  "myFunction", 
  "Description of my function",
  {
    properties: {
      param1: {
        type: "string",
        description: "First parameter"
      },
      param2: {
        type: "number",
        description: "Second parameter"
      }
    },
    required: ["param1"]
  },
  async ({ param1, param2 }) => {
    // Implementation goes here
    return {
      content: [
        {
          type: "text",
          text: JSON.stringify({ result: `Processed ${param1}` })
        }
      ]
    };
  }
);

// Start the MCP server
await mcpProxy.startMCP();

FAQ

What is the Meta MCP Proxy MCP server?
Meta MCP Proxy is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server profile on explainx.ai. MCP lets AI hosts (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor) call tools and resources through a standard interface; this page summarizes categories, install hints, and community ratings.
How do MCP servers relate to agent skills?
Skills are reusable instruction packages (often SKILL.md); MCP servers expose live capabilities. Teams frequently combine both—skills for workflows, MCP for APIs and data. See explainx.ai/skills and explainx.ai/mcp-servers for parallel directories.
How are reviews shown for Meta MCP Proxy?
This profile displays 10 aggregated ratings (sample rows for discoverability plus signed-in user reviews). Average score is about 4.5 out of 5—verify behavior in your own environment before production use.
