Hello HN! Earlier this year, we shared mcp-agent (https://github.com/lastmile-ai/mcp-agent) [1][2], a lightweight framework for building agents with MCP. Since then we have tried to push the protocol to the limits, including hosting agents as long-running tools on MCP [3], and seen other creative approaches surface (mcp-ui, chatgpt apps sdk). Today, we are launching mcp-c – a cloud platform designed for hosting any kind of MCP server, including agents, ChatGPT apps, etc. We are in open beta and free to use, and would love your feedback. Here are some key choices we made:…

Hi HN, I'm Gzuuus, the creator of ContextVM this is my first post here, hope you find it interesting! I started building ContextVM some months ago, this is an open protocol that runs the Model Context Protocol (MCP) over Nostr. In practice, it’s a transport for MCP that lets you expose remote servers without needing a domain, inbound ports, or OAuth, clients, and servers only need an outbound internet connection. The problem I ran into: When deploying a remote MCP server you can feel the pain. You usually need a domain name, a static IP, TLS certificates, port forwarding, and some way to…

Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) has made it easy to spin up servers that expose tools and data to LLMs. A lot of these MCP servers run locally because they need access to your files, shell, browser, etc. The problem: they typically run with the same privileges as your user. If a server is buggy, misconfigured, or prompt-injected, it can do anything you can do: read SSH keys, exfiltrate dotfiles, poke around in private repos, etc. Our research group is working on this by adding a security manifest (inspired by the Android app manifest) plus a local policy enforcement engine that…

Hey folks, I've been building AI agents that need to talk to various APIs, and I got tired of writing custom integrations for every service. So I built the MCP-OpenAPI Server to solve this problem! It's a simple bridge that lets AI agents discover and use our existing OpenAPI endpoints through the Model Context Protocol. No need to write custom code for each service - just point it at the OpenAPI specs, choose which endpoints to expose, and you're good to go. What makes this different from other MCP servers is that it uses SSE transport instead of stdio, making it work well for multi-tenant…

Author here. I built this after getting frustrated with Amazon Q and wanting a more developer-friendly way to interact with AWS infrastructure. It's a local MCP server that lets Claude safely access your AWS environment using your existing local credentials. I've tried it on cases like: - Visualize my networking setup - Prepare a thorough analysis of my AWS costs and give insights how to cut it - Find S3 buckets without encryption enabled and their total size And it works surprisingly well. Let me know what do you think!

Hello HN, I built this because I wanted to give Claude Desktop access to my Notion workspace without running a flaky local Python script via stdio. This is a Node.js/Express implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that uses SSE (Server-Sent Events) for transport. It’s designed to be stateless and deployable as a container (I'm hosting it on Apify, but it works anywhere with Node). The Stack: TypeScript + Express @modelcontextprotocol/sdk Zod for input validation Bearer Auth for security (since it exposes an HTTP endpoint) Capabilities: It allows the LLM to search pages,…

Hi HN, I'm excited to share Latitude Agents—the first autonomous agent platform built for the Model Context Protocol (MCP). With Latitude Agents, you can design, evaluate, and deploy self-improving AI agents that integrate directly with your tools and data. We've been working on agents for a while, and continue to be impressed by the things they can do. When we learned about the Model Context Protocol, we knew it was the missing piece to enable truly autonomous agents. MCP servers were first thought out as an extension for local AI tools (i.e Claude Desktop) so they aren't easily hostable in…
