MCP Nexus - Cloudflare Workers

Deploy to Cloudflare

One-click deployment of MCP Nexus to Cloudflare's free tier. This provides a unified MCP server for Tavily and Brave Search APIs with automatic API key rotation.

Features

  • Zero-cost hosting on Cloudflare Workers free tier

  • D1 Database for persistent storage (automatic provisioning)

  • Encrypted API keys with Web Crypto API

  • Admin UI included - Full web interface for managing keys and tokens

  • 7 MCP tools: tavily_search, tavily_extract, tavily_crawl, tavily_map, tavily_research, brave_web_search, brave_local_search

Deploy

Option 1: One-Click Deploy

Click the button above and follow the prompts. You'll be asked to:

  1. Authorize Cloudflare to access your GitHub (fork will be created)

  2. Configure secrets:

    • ADMIN_API_TOKEN: Token for admin API access (generate with openssl rand -hex 32)

    • KEY_ENCRYPTION_SECRET: Key for encrypting API keys (generate with openssl rand -base64 32)

Option 2: Manual Deploy

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/ykq007/mcp-nexus.git
cd mcp-nexus/packages/worker

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Create D1 database
npx wrangler d1 create mcp-nexus-db
# Copy the database_id from output to wrangler.jsonc

# Set secrets
npx wrangler secret put ADMIN_API_TOKEN
npx wrangler secret put KEY_ENCRYPTION_SECRET

# Run migrations and deploy
npm run deploy

Post-Deployment Setup

After deployment, you need to add API keys and create client tokens.

1. Add Tavily API Keys

curl -X POST https://your-worker.workers.dev/admin/api/tavily-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"label": "Primary Key", "key": "tvly-xxxxx"}'

2. Add Brave API Keys (Optional)

curl -X POST https://your-worker.workers.dev/admin/api/brave-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"label": "Primary Key", "key": "BSAxxxxx"}'

3. Create Client Token

curl -X POST https://your-worker.workers.dev/admin/api/tokens \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ADMIN_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"description": "Claude Desktop"}'

Save the returned token - it's only shown once.
