HTTP/SSE Transport Mode
In addition to the default stdio transport, the server supports an HTTP transport for use as a remote or shared MCP endpoint.
Starting the HTTP Server
# Using the npm script (defaults: localhost:3000)
npm run start:http
# Using the built binary directly with custom options
node dist/index.js --transport http --port 8080 --host 127.0.0.1CLI Arguments
Argument | Default | Description |
|
| Transport mode: |
|
| Port to listen on (1–65535) |
|
| Host to bind to |
Security note: The default host
127.0.0.1restricts access to localhost only. Binding to0.0.0.0exposes the server to the network; only do this in controlled environments.
HTTP Endpoints
Endpoint | Method | Description |
|
| MCP JSON-RPC endpoint (streamable HTTP transport) |
|
| Health check — returns |
Connecting an MCP Client via HTTP
Claude Desktop or other MCP clients that support HTTP transport can connect with:
{
"mcpServers": {
"jamf-docs": {
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp"
}
}
}CORS Configuration
By default the server does not set CORS headers (cross-origin requests are blocked). To allow specific origins, set the CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS environment variable:
CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://myapp.example.com node dist/index.js --transport httpMultiple origins are separated by commas.
Rate Limiting
The HTTP server applies per-IP token-bucket rate limiting. The default is 60 requests per minute. Override with the RATE_LIMIT_RPM environment variable.
Configuration
All settings are optional. Set them as environment variables before launching the server.

|
| 10–10000 | Maximum number of entries kept in the in-memory cache |
Request Settings
