🔱 MCPHub

One gateway to rule them all

npm version License: MIT GitHub stars CI

A unified gateway and dashboard for managing multiple MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. Think "Docker Compose + Dashboard" for MCP servers.

😩 Why MCPHub?

If you work with AI tools in 2026, you probably have multiple MCP servers — filesystem, GitHub, databases, APIs. Managing them is painful:

  • Scattered configs — every AI client needs its own MCP server list

  • No visibility — which servers are running? What tools are available?

  • No single endpoint — each client connects to each server separately

  • Restart hell — add a server = restart everything

MCPHub fixes all of this:

  • One YAML file to define all your MCP servers

  • One gateway endpoint that routes to the right server

  • Beautiful dashboard showing status, tools, and stats

  • Hot reload — edit config, servers update instantly

🚀 Quick Start

1. Install

npm install -g mcphub

2. Create mcphub.yaml

mcphub:
  port: 3000

servers:
  - name: filesystem
    command: npx
    args: ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/home/user"]

  - name: github
    command: npx
    args: ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"]
    env:
      GITHUB_TOKEN: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"

3. Run

mcphub

Open http://localhost:3000 to see the dashboard 🎉

📖 Config Reference

mcphub:
  port: 3000            # Dashboard port (default: 3000)
  log_level: info       # debug | info | warn | error

servers:
  - name: my-server     # Unique server name (required)
    command: npx         # Command to start the server (required)
    args: ["-y", "pkg"]  # Command arguments (optional)
    enabled: true        # Enable/disable without removing (optional)
    env:                 # Environment variables (optional)
      KEY: "value"
      SECRET: "${FROM_ENV}"  # Reference host env vars

Environment Variable Substitution

Use ${VAR_NAME} in any string value to reference the host environment:

env:
  GITHUB_TOKEN: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"     # From host env
  DATABASE_URL: "${DATABASE_URL}"

🔧 Using with AI Clients

Configure your AI client to connect to MCPHub instead of individual servers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcphub": {
      "command": "mcphub",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcphub.yaml"]
    }
  }
}

All tools from all configured servers are now available through this single connection.
