About This Server
An MCP server that exposes local and remote agents across different servers as MCP tools.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) - This server can be integrated with AI applications to provide additional context and capabilities, enabling enhanced AI interactions and functionality.

MCP Agent Proxy
Connect any MCP client to any agent server - creating an "Internet of Agents" through simple, composable primitives.
Supports Mastra ❤️ and LangGraph 🦜🕸️ servers! 🎉
Quick Start
Add this to your MCP client's configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcpAgentProxy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-agent-proxy@latest"]
}
}
}
That's it! The proxy lets your MCP client connect to different agent servers and exposes agent interactions as MCP tools. It automatically detects agent server types and adapts accordingly.

What This Does
Instead of building complex protocols, we provide 5 simple tools that let agents discover, connect, and orchestrate across unlimited networks:
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
listAgents | Discover available agents across all servers |
describeAgent | Get detailed agent capabilities for intelligent routing |
callAgent | Execute any agent with smart conflict resolution |
connectServer | Dynamically add new agent servers at runtime |
disconnectServer | Remove dynamically connected servers |
Supported Server Types
- Mastra: Support for local and remote Mastra servers
- LangGraph: Support for local and remote LangGraph instances
- Extensible: Plugin architecture makes it easy to add support for other agent frameworks
The Network Effect
Agent servers can be MCP clients themselves, creating recursive agent networks:
Your MCP Client → MCP Proxy → Agent Server (Mastra/LangGraph) → Agents -> MCP Proxy -> Other Agent Servers → 🚀 Agents
One configuration line unlocks entire ecosystems of AI capabilities.
MCP Compliance & Features
✅ Fully MCP 2025-03-26 Compliant
- Complete implementation of the latest Model Context Protocol specification
🚀 Multi-Transport Support
- Stdio Transport: Standard MCP client integration (
npx mcp-agent-proxy) - Streamable HTTP: Modern HTTP-based transport with session management
- Legacy SSE: Backward compatibility with existing SSE implementations
- Automatic Detection: Seamlessly switches between transports based on client capabilities
Common Configurations
Multiple Servers (Mixed Types)
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcpAgentProxy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-agent-proxy"],
"env": {
"AGENT_SERVERS": "http://localhost:4111 http://localhost:2024"
}
}
}
}
Cloud + Local (Mixed Mastra and LangGraph)
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcpAgentProxy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-agent-proxy"],
"env": {
"AGENT_SERVERS": "https://my-mastra.vercel.app http://localhost:2024"
}
}
}
}
From Source (Development)
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcpAgentProxy": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/mcp-agent-proxy/dist/mcp-server.js"],
"env": {
"AGENT_SERVERS": "http://localhost:4111"

}
}
Usage Examples
Basic Agent Call:
Can you call the weatherAgent to get the current weather in New York City?
Network Exploration
Explore the agents you're connected to
Smart Conflict Resolution:
I need to use the weatherAgent from server1 specifically, not the default one
Dynamic Network Expansion:
Connect to the ML specialists at https://ml-specialists.vercel.app and then use their modelTrainer agent
Environment Variables
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
AGENT_SERVERS | (none) | Space/comma-separated server URLs (supports Mastra and LangGraph) |
MCP_SERVER_PORT | 3001 | Proxy server port |
MCP_TRANSPORT | http | Transport method (stdio/http) |

Troubleshooting
NPX Issues:
npx clear-npx-cache
npx mcp-agent-proxy@latest
Port Conflicts:
"env": { "MCP_SERVER_PORT": "3002" }
Connection Issues:
- Ensure agent servers are running and accessible
- Check firewall settings and server URLs
- For LangGraph: Default port is usually 2024 (
langgraph dev) - For Mastra: Default port is usually 4111
Debug Mode:
DEBUG=mastra:* npx mcp-agent-proxy
