Host RPC FAQs

Question 1

What is Host RPC?

Accepted Answer

Host RPC is a Node.js library that bridges Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool calls to JSON-RPC functions over secure Unix socket connections. It's designed for multi-tenant server deployments requiring context-based scoping.

Question 2

How does Host RPC ensure secure multi-tenant isolation?

Accepted Answer

It leverages JWT-secured context-based scoping, allowing for robust user and tenant isolation. It includes built-in JWT authentication with automatic verification to ensure only authorized calls with validated context are processed.

Question 3

Can I dynamically add or remove RPC functions with Host RPC?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Host RPC supports dynamic registration of RPC functions (tools) even after the server has started. This allows for flexible tool sets and easy updates without server restarts.

Question 4

What are the benefits of using Unix sockets for communication?

Accepted Answer

Unix domain sockets provide reliable, high-performance inter-process communication for tool calls, which is often more efficient than network sockets for local communication within the same machine.

Question 5

Is Host RPC easy for developers to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it offers a simplified Host API designed for easy setup of RPC servers. It also provides full TypeScript support for enhanced type safety and a better developer experience.
