MCP SuperAssistant Proxy
MCP SuperAssistant Proxy lets you run multiple MCP stdio-based and SSE-based servers and expose them through a single SSE endpoint. This allows MCP SuperAssistant and other tools to connect to multiple remote MCP servers and tools via a unified proxy.
Installation & Usage
Run MCP SuperAssistant Proxy via npx
:
npx -y @srbhptl39/mcp-superassistant-proxy@latest --config path/to/config.json
CLI Options
--config, -c <path>
: (required) Path to a JSON configuration file (see below)
--port <number>
: Port to run the proxy server on (default: 3006
)
--baseUrl <url>
: Base URL for SSE clients (default: http://localhost:<port>
)
--ssePath <path>
: Path for SSE subscriptions (default: /sse
)
--messagePath <path>
: Path for SSE messages (default: /message
)
--logLevel <info|none>
: Set logging level (default: info
)
--cors
: Enable CORS (default: true
)
--healthEndpoint <path>
: One or more endpoints returning "ok"
(can be used multiple times)
--timeout <ms>
: Connection timeout in milliseconds (default: 30000
)
Configuration File
The configuration file is a JSON file specifying which MCP servers to connect to. Each server can be either a stdio-based server (run as a subprocess) or an SSE-based server (remote URL).
Example config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"notion": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@suekou/mcp-notion-server"],
"env": {
"NOTION_API_TOKEN": "<your_notion_token_here>"
}
},
"gmail": {
"url": "https://mcp.composio.dev/gmail/xxxx"
},
"youtube-subtitle-downloader": {
"command": "bun",
"args": [
"run",
"/path/to/mcp-youtube/src/index.ts"
]
},
"desktop-commander": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@wonderwhy-er/desktop-commander"]
},
"iterm-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "iterm-mcp"]
}
}
}
- Each key under
mcpServers
is a unique name for the server.
- For stdio-based servers, specify
command
, args
, and optionally env
.
- For SSE-based servers, specify
url
.
Endpoints
Once started, the proxy exposes:
- SSE endpoint:
GET http://localhost:<port>/sse
- POST messages:
POST http://localhost:<port>/message
(You can customize the paths with --ssePath
and --messagePath
.)
Example
Why MCP?
Model Context Protocol standardizes how AI tools exchange data. If your MCP server only speaks stdio, MCP SuperAssistant Proxy exposes an SSE-based interface so remote clients (and tools like MCP Inspector or Claude Desktop) can connect without extra server changes. It also allows you to aggregate multiple MCP servers behind a single endpoint.
Advanced Configuration
MCP SuperAssistant Proxy is designed with modularity in mind:
- Supports both stdio and SSE MCP servers in one config.
- Automatically derives the JSON‑RPC version from incoming requests, ensuring future compatibility.
- Package information (name and version) is retransmitted where possible.
- Stdio-to-SSE mode uses standard logs and SSE-to-Stdio mode logs via stderr (as otherwise it would prevent stdio functionality).
- The SSE-to-SSE mode provides automatic reconnection with backoff if the remote server connection is lost.
- Health endpoints can be added for monitoring.
