MCP Create MCP Server

What does “MCP Create” MCP Server do?

MCP Create is a dynamic MCP (Model Context Protocol) server management service designed to facilitate the creation, execution, and management of other MCP servers. Acting as both an MCP server and a manager, MCP Create allows users to launch and control multiple child MCP servers as separate processes, vastly increasing the flexibility and scalability of MCP-based workflows. It is especially useful for developers looking to dynamically instantiate, update, and remove MCP servers without manual intervention. MCP Create supports TypeScript (with future plans for JavaScript and Python), and enables robust tool execution, server code updates, restarts, and simplified lifecycle management. This makes it an ideal backbone for environments where on-demand server orchestration and modular extension of AI assistant capabilities are required.

Use Cases of this MCP Server

• Dynamic Server Creation Enables the rapid instantiation of new MCP servers on demand, supporting scalable and modular development environments.
• Tool Orchestration Allows execution of tools across multiple MCP servers, facilitating automation, batch processing, and distributed workflows.
• Server Lifecycle Management Simplifies updating, restarting, and deleting servers, reducing manual overhead for development and operations teams.
• Centralized MCP Ecosystem Management Acts as a single entry point to manage and supervise multiple MCP servers, improving overall visibility and control.
• Resource Isolation and Sandboxing Each child MCP server runs in its own process, enhancing security, fault isolation, and resource management.

How to set it up

Windsurf

No specific setup instructions for Windsurf are provided in the documentation.

Claude

1. Ensure Docker is installed and MCP Create is built as a Docker image.
2. Edit your claude_desktop_config.json configuration file.
3. Add MCP Create to the mcpServers object using the following JSON snippet:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "mcp-create": {
         "command": "docker",
         "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "mcp-create"]
       }
     }
   }
   

4. Save the configuration and restart Claude Desktop.
5. Verify that MCP Create appears as an available MCP server.

Securing API Keys Example

To secure API keys or other sensitive inputs, use environment variables in your configuration as follows:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-create": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "mcp-create"],
      "env": {
        "API_KEY": "${API_KEY}"
      },
      "inputs": {
        "api_key": "${API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

No specific setup instructions for Cursor are provided in the documentation.

Cline

No specific setup instructions for Cline are provided in the documentation.

How to use this MCP inside flows

Using MCP in FlowHunt

To integrate MCP servers into your FlowHunt workflow, start by adding the MCP component to your flow and connecting it to your AI agent:

Click on the MCP component to open the configuration panel. In the system MCP configuration section, insert your MCP server details using this JSON format:

{
  "MCP-name": {
    "transport": "streamable_http",
    "url": "https://yourmcpserver.example/pathtothemcp/url"
  }
}

Once configured, the AI agent is now able to use this MCP as a tool with access to all its functions and capabilities. Remember to change “MCP-name” to whatever the actual name of your MCP server is (e.g., “mcp-create”) and replace the URL with your own MCP server URL.

Overview

Our opinion

MCP Create provides a robust foundation for dynamic management of MCP servers, with excellent documentation on tool functionality and integration for Claude Desktop. However, the lack of documented prompt templates, resources, and setup for some platforms limits its breadth. Sampling and roots support are not detailed. Overall, it is a strong, well-documented project for server orchestration.
