Manages, authenticates, and executes Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and tools through a unified CLI interface.
mcporter is a comprehensive utility designed to streamline interactions with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem. It allows developers to discover, configure, and call tools across various servers using HTTP or stdio connections. With built-in support for OAuth authentication, daemon management, and automated code generation for TypeScript and custom CLIs, it serves as a powerful bridge for developers building or consuming AI-native services within the Claude Code environment.
