Hi HN! I'm Noah, an ordinary guy that got really interested in MCP about a month ago when I downloaded Cursor. It's been super exciting to see companies around the world launch their own MCP servers empowering AI to do more. Unfortunately, I got a bit overwhelmed setting up MCP servers across my clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code, so I figured I'd take a shot at building an open-source tool to help others and myself! So yeah, I built a CLI tool that enables you to quickly get MCP servers from the Web integrated with your clients like Cursor and Claude Desktop. You can use…

I’ve been building and using agents heavily lately. The Model Context Protocol ecosystem is growing insanely fast, but discovering and configuring new tools is still highly manual. Every time I needed to connect an agent to a new service, I had to browse registries, figure out the transport type, identify required env vars, and manually update "mcp.json" files. So I built MCPfinder. It aggregates servers from the official MCP registry, Glama, and Smithery (around 25,000 combined entries) into a deduplicated, ranked catalog. But the real twist is the DX: MCPfinder is itself an MCP server :D…

Hey HN, OpenAI released the Agents SDK yesterday, which is great because of its simplicity. I just added MCP support for it, which is currently available as a fork here: https://github.com/lastmile-ai/openai-agents-mcp (and on pypi as the openai-agents-mcp package). You can specify the names of MCP servers to give an Agent access to by setting its `mcp_servers` property. The Agent will then automatically aggregate tools from the MCP servers, as well as any `tools` specified, and create a single extended list of tools. This means you can seamlessly use MCP servers, local…

Hey HN! I’m Gui from deco (decocms.com). We’ve been using this tool internally as the foundation for a few customer AI platforms, and today we’re open-sourcing it as MCP Mesh. MCP is quickly becoming the standard for agentic systems, but… once you go past a couple servers it turns into the same problems for every team: - M×N config sprawl (every client wired to every server, each with its own JSON + ports + retries) - Token + tool bloat (dumping tool definitions into every prompt doesn’t scale) - Credentials + blast radius (tokens scattered across clients, hard to audit, hard to revoke) - No…

Recently I was trying to use an MCP server to pull data from a service, but hit a limitation: the MCP didn't expose the data I needed, even though the service's REST API supported it. So I wrote a quick CLI wrapper around the API. Worked great, except Claude Code had no structured way to know what my CLI does or how to call it. For `gh` or `curl` the model can learn from the extensive training data, but for a tool I just wrote, it was stabbing in the dark. MCP solves this discovery problem, but it does it by rebuilding tool interaction from scratch: server processes, JSON-RPC transport,…

Hey HN Community, I built MCP360 after spending weeks integrating APIs for an AI agent project. Each tool needed its own setup, auth, billing, and maintenance. When any APIs changed, my integrations broke. I got tired of it. MCP360 is a single gateway giving AI agents access to 100+ tools through one config block. Search engines, web scraping, SEO, e-commerce data, maps, domain tools, and more. Real example: Instead of managing Google Search, web scraping, SERP tracking, and keyword research as 4 separate subscriptions (4 bills, 4 auth systems, 4 points of failure), you connect once. Works…
