What it does
mcpd is a daemon designed to bridge the gap between AI agents and their underlying tool infrastructure. It allows developers to declaratively define required MCP servers in a configuration file, handling the complex work of lifecycle management, secret injection, and environment promotion. By spawning MCP servers as STDIO subprocesses and proxying them over HTTP, it transforms local tools into reliable network services.
Tools
get_current_time: Retrieves the current time for a specified timezone.config_manage: Allows adding, setting, and clearing MCP server configurations via the daemon.lifecycle_control: Manages the start, stop, and restart of defined MCP servers.
