MCP Manager – Open-Source CLI to Manage Your MCP Servers

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…

    Hey everyone, I've wanted an easy way to control which mcp server tools are available to clients. So for example, I might want a gmail server to only expose the read tool (but not send, delete etc). I figured if I create a cli for spawning mcp servers, I could intercept the stdin, stdout, stderr etc and modify what the clients see when they are making calls to list tools, resources, and prompts. Well it worked! In the initial version you can easily add a server to claude with a safe list of tools: npx -y mcpgod add @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything --client claude --tools=echo,add…

  • Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
