Configuration

View docs

You can run a remote MCP server that exposes its tools over an HTTP endpoint and connect to it from various MCP clients. This setup is useful for real-time tool access in cloud environments and from local clients through a proxy, without needing authentication.

How to use

Connect to your remote MCP server from an MCP client or from a local proxy to access its tools. You have two primary ways to connect in this setup: via a cloud-hosted HTTP endpoint and via a local stdio-based proxy that forwards requests to your remote server.

How to install

Prerequisites: make sure you have Node.js and npm installed on your machine.

Create your MCP server project initialized for Cloudflare AI templates.

npm create cloudflare@latest -- my-mcp-server --template=cloudflare/ai/demos/remote-mcp-authless

Additional content

Connect to Cloudflare AI Playground to experiment with your MCP server tools directly in a web-based client. Use the deployed URL shown after you set up your server to access the tools through the playground.

You can also connect from Claude Desktop or other local MCP clients through the mcp-remote proxy. Use the example configuration below as a starting point and customize it to point to your deployed server.
