- • SSE Bridge for external clients
- • streaming completions are not implemented yet
- • add the config.json file to the same directory as the compose.yml file and use a volume mount (you will need to add the volume manually)
- • add a http url to the environment variables to download the config.json file from a url
- • add the config json directly as an environment variable
- • ./config.json:/mcp_bridge/config.json
Use Cases
- • Capability coverage: tool calling support; stdio transport support.

Unity-MCP
unity-mcp bridges AI assistants (e.g., Claude, Cursor) with Unity Editor via a local MCP Client, enabling LLMs to manage assets, control scenes, edit scripts, and automate tasks.
ViperJuice/mcp-gateway
A meta-server for minimal Claude Code tool bloat with progressive disclosure and dynamic server provisioning. Exposes 9 stable meta-tools, auto-starts Playwright and Context7, and dynamically provisions 25+ MCP servers from a curated manifest.
mcp-use
mcp-use is an opinionated TypeScript framework for building MCP agents, clients, and servers. Built on top of the official @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, it adds structured patterns for authentication, error handling, and composable agent workflows. Editor's Review: mcp-use is the most practical choice for TypeScript developers building production MCP integrations. The framework makes sensible defaults while preserving escape hatches for customization. Notably, it supports ChatGPT Apps, Code Mode, OAuth, Notifications, Sampling, and Observability—covering most real-world MCP use cases in a single library. If you are building an MCP server in TypeScript, starting with mcp-use will save significant time compared to raw SDK usage.
firecrawl-mcp-server
Firecrawl MCP Server is the official integration of Firecrawl's web scraping and search capabilities into the MCP ecosystem. It enables AI assistants to search the web, scrape individual pages (including JavaScript-rendered content), and extract structured data from websites. Editor's Review: This is one of the most capable MCP servers for web data retrieval. Firecrawl's strength is handling modern websites that rely on client-side JavaScript rendering—a common pain point with traditional HTTP-based scraping. The MCP integration makes these capabilities accessible to any MCP-compatible AI assistant. For AI research workflows that need to gather information from the live web, firecrawl-mcp-server is an essential tool. Configuration requires a Firecrawl API key, and rate limits depend on your subscription tier.
