everything · Summary

Official MCP test server exercising all protocol features for client builders.

MCP-Bridge · Summary

MCP-Bridge acts as middleware to provide OpenAI-compatible endpoints that call MCP tools.

everything · Use cases

  • Testing MCP client implementations against all protocol features
  • Learning MCP protocol capabilities through a reference server
  • Validating client compatibility with different transport methods

MCP-Bridge · Use cases

  • Integrating MCP tools with OpenAI-based applications like Open WebUI
  • Providing an OpenAI-compatible interface for legacy systems that need MCP functionality
  • Simplifying the integration of multiple MCP tools into AI applications without MCP native support
