A gateway for MCP servers
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"mcp-gateway-2","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.

MCP Gateway acts as an intermediary between LLMs and other MCP servers. It: 1. 📄 Reads server configurations from a `mcp.json` file located in your root directory. 2. ⚙️ Manages the lifecycle of configured MCP servers. 3. 🛡️ Intercepts requests and responses to sanitize sensitive information. 4. 🔗 Provides a unified interface for discovering and interacting with all proxied MCPs. 5. 🔒 **Security Scanner** - Analyzes server reputation and security risks before loading MCP servers. ## Installation ### Python (recommended) Install the mcp-gateway package: ```bash pip install mcp-gateway ``` > `--mcp-json-path` - must lead to your [mcp.json](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol#configuration-locations) or [claude_desktop_config.json](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/server#testing-your-server-with-claude-for-desktop) > `--plugin` or `-p` - Specify the plugins to enable (can be used multiple times) ### Usage This example enables the basic guardrail for token masking and xetrack tracing plugin for filesystem MCP: ```bash mcp-gateway --mcp-json-path ~/.cursor/mcp.json -p basic -p xetrack ``` You can add more MCPs that will be under the Gateway by putting the MCP server configuration under the "servers" key. <details> <summary>Cursor example:</summary> ```json { "mcpServers": { …
