MCP Access Point

MCP Access Point is a lightweight protocol conversion gateway tool designed to establish a communication bridge between traditional HTTP services and MCP (Model Context Protocol) clients. It enables MCP clients to interact directly with existing HTTP services without requiring any server-side interface modifications.

Introduction

This project is built on Pingora - an ultra-high performance gateway proxy library capable of supporting massive-scale request proxy services. Pingora has been used to build services that handle core traffic for the Cloudflare platform, consistently serving over 40 million requests per second across the internet for years. It has become the technical cornerstone supporting a significant proportion of traffic on the Cloudflare platform.

HTTP to MCP

This mode allows clients like Cursor Desktop to communicate with remote HTTP servers through SSE, even when the servers themselves don't support the SSE protocol.

• Example setup includes two services:
  • Service 1 runs locally at 127.0.0.1:8090
  • Service 2 runs remotely at api.example.com
• Through the MCP Access Point, both services can be converted to MCP services without any code modifications.
• Clients communicate with Service 1 and Service 2 via the MCP protocol. The MCP Access Point automatically distinguishes MCP requests and forwards them to the appropriate backend services.
