SIN Mac Gateway

SIN Mac Gateway

Provider-neutral, authenticated Remote MCP gateway for a trusted macOS machine.

SIN Mac Gateway exposes the existing local mcp-combiner tool contract over the official MCP Python SDK's Streamable HTTP transport. The local backend remains the source of fs__* and cmd__*; this repository owns remote transport, OAuth, service lifecycle, audit/redaction safeguards, and deployment documentation.

Architecture

Claude.ai / remote MCP client
        |
        | HTTPS + OAuth 2.1 / PKCE

Cloudflare Tunnel (outbound from Mac)

        | stdio MCP
        v
mcp-combiner
   |         |
 fs__*     cmd__*

No router port is opened. The gateway itself binds to loopback; Cloudflare Tunnel is the public edge.

Current capabilities

  • Official mcp==2.0.0 Streamable HTTP transport, including current protocol negotiation.

  • OAuth Authorization Code flow with S256 PKCE.

  • Persistent access/refresh tokens and revocation through a private SQLite store.

  • Claude callback allowlist for claude.ai and claude.com.

  • 401 Protected Resource Metadata discovery for unauthenticated MCP requests.

  • Existing mcp-combiner compatibility: fs__* and cmd__* stay unchanged.

  • Loopback /healthz and /readyz endpoints.

  • launchd RunAtLoad + KeepAlive service.

  • Privacy-safe audit log (tool/outcome/duration; arguments and outputs are not logged).

  • High-confidence command-output secret redaction and a small defense-in-depth sensitive-path/Keychain guard.

cmd__run_process is still intentionally powerful user-level shell access. The guard is defense in depth, not an OS sandbox.

Install on macOS

Prerequisite: the existing wow-my-zsh mcp-combiner runtime must be installed.

bash scripts/install-macos.sh \
  --public-base-url https://sin-mac-gateway.example.com \
  --fs-root "$HOME"

This creates private runtime/config state under ~/.config/sin-mac-gateway and ~/.local/state/sin-mac-gateway, installs a dedicated virtualenv under ~/.local/share/sin-mac-gateway, and loads com.sin.mac-gateway.

Local verification:

curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:8765/healthz
curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:8765/readyz

Claude.ai connector

Claude custom connectors connect from Anthropic infrastructure, so the MCP URL must be public HTTPS. Configure Claude with:

  • Name: SIN Mac Gateway

  • URL: https://<hostname>/mcp

  • OAuth Client ID: shown by sin-mac-gateway-credentials

  • OAuth Client Secret: run sin-mac-gateway-credentials --copy-secret and paste from the macOS clipboard

The secret command never prints the secret to stdout.

Development

python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -e '.[dev]'
.venv/bin/pytest -q

Security

Runtime credentials, Cloudflare tunnel credentials, OAuth tokens, audit logs, and machine-specific config are never committed. See docs/SECURITY.md and docs/OPERATIONS.md.
