Centralized server management
Add local commands and remote MCP endpoints once, then keep status, auth, routing, and tools in one place.
Add your MCP servers once. Connect Cursor, Claude, Codex, ChatGPT, and future AI apps through one private Mac gateway that keeps agent context focused.
macOS 26 or later. Private by default. Remote Access available with Pro.
How it works
Instead of configuring the same servers across every AI app, MCP Beast becomes the one endpoint your clients talk to while it manages the downstream MCPs.
Copy your local MCP Beast URL.
Paste it into Cursor, Claude, Codex, or another MCP client.
Add downstream MCP servers inside MCP Beast and route calls through one stable endpoint.
Why it matters
Add local commands and remote MCP endpoints once, then keep status, auth, routing, and tools in one place.
Clients see MCP Beast's compact dispatcher first instead of loading every downstream tool schema at once.
Handle authenticated MCPs from the Mac app and keep sensitive tokens in macOS Keychain.
Authentication
Add remote endpoints, local commands, headers, and OAuth-backed servers from one Mac app. MCP Beast keeps credentials local and gives clients a smaller, steadier tool surface.
MCP Beast Pro
Remote Access lets ChatGPT, Claude web/mobile, and cloud agents reach MCP Beast through a secure outbound relay while your local gateway stays private.
Private by default
Local first. Relay only when enabled.
Local endpoint: localhost:7331/mcp
Remote endpoint: mac.mcp-beast.ai
Auth: bearer tokens you can regenerate or disable.
FAQ
No. MCP Beast is designed as a local registry and router. It can expose a compact dispatcher surface so agents can search, describe, and call the right downstream tool only when needed.
Local mode stays on your Mac. LAN access is opt-in and protected by a bearer token. Remote Access is a Pro feature that uses an outbound relay when you explicitly enable it.
Any MCP client that supports a custom MCP server URL can connect to MCP Beast. The app is built around Cursor, Claude, Codex, ChatGPT, and future MCP-capable clients.
Many MCP clients load every tool schema from every configured server. MCP Beast can expose list, search, describe, and call tools first, then reveal full schemas only when relevant.
