Transparent Proxy FAQs

Question 1

Does the Transparent Proxy support real-time communication?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it utilizes Server-Sent Events (SSE) for efficient, real-time communication across the entire stack – between the client, the proxy, and the external MCP server, ensuring data consistency and responsiveness.

Question 2

How does it manage different authentication methods?

Accepted Answer

It handles OAuth 2.1 for client-side authentication and automatically performs API login for the external MCP server. It then manages the acquired Bearer tokens, including automatic refreshing, caching, and auto-renewal.

Question 3

What is the core function of the Transparent Proxy?

Accepted Answer

The Transparent Proxy acts as an invisible bridge, connecting OAuth 2.1 authenticated clients with external MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that use traditional API login (email/password) authentication. It resolves compatibility issues between these two authentication types.

Question 4

How does it ensure reliability and security for API connections?

Accepted Answer

Reliability is ensured through automatic token refresh, intelligent caching, automatic error recovery for authentication failures, and auto-reconnection. Security is maintained with JWT protection for client-facing routes and secure handling of external API credentials.

Question 5

What are the key benefits for developers using this tool?

Accepted Answer

Developers gain seamless integration, automated token lifecycle management, transparent access to external MCP tools, robust error recovery, and real-time communication via Server-Sent Events (SSE), significantly simplifying complex API integrations.
