What it does
mcp-remote acts as a bridge between MCP clients that only support local stdio transport and remote MCP servers. It allows users to access hosted servers securely via OAuth without needing to run the full server code on their own local machine.
Tools
- Proxy Tool: Forwards requests from a local stdio client to a remote SSE/HTTP server.
- OAuth Handler: Manages the authentication flow and token refreshing for remote access.
