About Mcp Hive

Mcp Hive Proxy is a gateway for agentic hosts to reach paid MCP servers. It can proxy one server or expose all available servers through a single endpoint with namespaced tools.

Key features

  1. 01Proxy a specific MCP server
  2. 02Gateway for available servers
  3. 03Discover servers, tools, resources, and prompts
  4. 04Namespace tools by server
  5. 05Authenticate with consumer credentials

Use cases

  1. 01Connect an agentic host to a paid MCP server
  2. 02Browse tools across available MCP servers

MCP support

It acts as an MCP gateway, proxying a selected MCP server or exposing available servers to MCP clients. Gateway mode provides discovery tools and namespaced server tools.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
"mcpServers": {
"hive-proxy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@mcp-hive-utils/proxy"
]
}
}
}
Run commandnpx -y @mcp-hive-utils/proxy

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Packages
npm@mcp-hive-utils/proxy1.0.15

Tools

No tool list yet

Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

Running

The proxy can run in two modes:

Server Mode (Single MCP)

Proxy a specific MCP server to your MCP client:

node src/proxy/mcpHiveProxy.ts --server <server-name> --local --credentials <credentials>
Gateway Mode (All MCPs)

Expose all available MCP servers through a single proxy with namespaced tools:

node src/proxy/mcpHiveProxy.ts --gateway --local --credentials <credentials>

In gateway mode:

  • Discovery tools are available: discoverServers, listTools, listResources, listPrompts
  • All server tools are namespaced: serverName___toolName (e.g., validator___echo, accuweather___getWeather)
Proxy Flags
FlagDescription

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
