remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

Integrations

Connects to and manages multiple Node.js-based MCP servers, allowing access to tools across different servers from a single hub
Enables connecting to other MCP servers through npm packages using npx commands

MCP-Hub-MCP Server

A hub server that connects to and manages other MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers.

Overview

This project builds an MCP hub server that can connect to other MCP servers, list their tools, and execute them. It is especially useful for bypassing Cursor’s 40-tool MCP limit. Even outside of Cursor, it helps reduce AI mistakes by hiding infrequently used tools.

Key Features

Automatic connection to other MCP servers via configuration file
List available tools on connected servers
Call tools on connected servers and return results

Configuration

Add this to your mcp.json:

Using npx

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "other-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-hub-mcp",
        "--config-path",
        "/Users/username/mcp.json"
      ]
    }
  }
}

System Prompt (or Cursor Rules)

Before processing a user's request, you must use the "list_all_tools" command to identify which tools are available.

This ensures that the AI assistant will always check available tools before attempting to use them.

Configuration File

The MCP-Hub-MCP server uses a Claude Desktop format configuration file to automatically connect to other MCP servers. You can specify the configuration file in the following ways:

Environment variable: Set the MCP_CONFIG_PATH environment variable to the configuration file path
Command line argument: Use the --config-path option to specify the configuration file path
Default path: Use mcp-config.json file in the current directory

Configuration file format:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "serverName1": {
      "command": "command",
      "args": ["arg1", "arg2", ...],
      "env": { "ENV_VAR1": "value1", ... }
    },
    "serverName2": {
      "command": "anotherCommand",
      "args": ["arg1", "arg2", ...]
    }
  }
}

Example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem",
        "/Users/username/Desktop",
        "/Users/username/Downloads"
      ]
    },
    "other-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/other-mcp-server.js"]
    }
  }
}

Usage

The MCP-Hub-MCP server provides the following tools:

1. `list-all-tools`

Returns a list of tools from all connected servers.

{
  "name": "list-all-tools",
  "arguments": {}
}

2. `call-tool`

Calls a tool on a specific server.

serverName: Name of the MCP server to call the tool from
toolName: Name of the tool to call
toolArgs: Arguments to pass to the tool

{
  "name": "call-tool",
  "arguments": {
    "serverName": "filesystem",
    "toolName": "readFile",
    "toolArgs": {
      "path": "/Users/username/Desktop/example.txt"
    }
  }
}
