MCP Host Server

A multi-tenant remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server hosting platform built for DigitalOcean deployment. This server allows multiple applications to connect to and use various MCP servers remotely over WebSocket connections.

Features

🏗️ Multi-tenant Architecture: Isolated MCP servers for different tenants
🔒 Secure Authentication: JWT-based authentication with role-based access
🌐 Remote Access: WebSocket-based connections for remote MCP usage
📊 Management API: RESTful API for server management
🛡️ Security: Rate limiting, input validation, CORS protection
📈 Scalable: Designed for cloud deployment on DigitalOcean

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email": "admin@mcp.mvrx.com.au", "password": "SecureMCP2024!"}'

Create MCP Server

# Create a file manager server
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/servers \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "My File Server",
    "type": "file-manager",
    "description": "File management MCP server"
  }'

  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"

MCP Client Configuration

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "remote-file-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/mcp-websocket-client.js"],
      "env": {
        "MCP_SERVER_URL": "ws://mcp.mvrx.com.au:3001/mcp-ws?tenant=TENANT_ID&server=SERVER_ID&token=CONNECTION_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Custom MCP Client

import { WebSocket } from 'ws';
import { Client } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js';

const ws = new WebSocket('ws://mcp.mvrx.com.au:3001/mcp-ws?tenant=TENANT_ID&server=SERVER_ID&token=CONNECTION_TOKEN');
const client = new Client({ name: 'my-app', version: '1.0.0' }, { capabilities: {} });

await client.connect(new WebSocketClientTransport(ws));

// Use MCP tools
const tools = await client.listTools();
console.log('Available tools:', tools);
