MCP Server Templates (Legacy)
MCP Server Templates (Legacy) is a flexible platform that provides Docker and Kubernetes backends, a lightweight CLI (mcpt), and client utilities for seamless MCP integration. It enables you to spin up servers from templates, route requests through a single endpoint with load balancing, and support both deployed (HTTP) and local (stdio) transports — all with sensible defaults and YAML-based configs. This legacy variant lays the groundwork for MCP integrations, while offering a clear upgrade path to the newer MCP Platform. The project emphasizes migration guidance to keep existing configurations working as you move to enhanced architecture and capabilities.
plugged.in MCP Hub — Proxy · Knowledge · Memory · Tools
The plugged.in MCP Proxy Server operates as a central hub that aggregates multiple Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers into a single, unified interface. It orchestrates knowledge, memory, and tools across connected MCPs, enabling clients to query documents, manage memory, and invoke tools from various servers through one connection. With support for STDIO, Server-Sent Events (SSE), and Streamable HTTP transports, it enables seamless integration with popular MCP clients like Claude Desktop, Cline, and Cursor while providing policy, telemetry, and registry features for scalable deployments. This proxy fetches tool, prompt, and resource configurations from the plugged.in App APIs and exposes a unified catalog of capabilities. It supports static built-in tools, memory clipboard operations, and dynamic tools discovered from connected MCP servers, including tool discovery, RAG-based search, document management, and notifications. The hub also offers configuration options for HTTP transport, authentication, and session management, making it possible to run as a stateless HTTP service or a stateful STDIO proxy, with optional API-key protection for HTTP endpoints.
