What it does

This gateway acts as a protocol translator, bridging the gap between Claude Desktop's stdio-only requirement and the HTTP/SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport used by many modern MCP servers. It allows users to connect Claude Desktop to any remote or local SSE-based MCP server by translating requests and responses in real-time.

Tools

As a gateway, it does not expose its own domain-specific tools but instead forwards tools from the connected SSE MCP server to the client.

Installation

Install the gateway globally via npm: npm install -g @mcphub/gateway

Configure Claude Desktop by adding the gateway path to your config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gateway": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/node_modules/@mcphub/gateway/dist/src/mcphub-gateway.js"]
    }
  }
}
