## What it is
MetaMCP is a self-hosted MCP proxy that aggregates multiple MCP servers into a unified MCP endpoint, with namespaces, tool cherry-picking, and pluggable middleware. It ships as a Docker Compose stack with a web dashboard and exposes aggregated servers via SSE or Streamable HTTP with API key or OAuth authentication.

## Use cases
- aggregate multiple mcp servers into one endpoint
- host mcp servers for my ai agent with authentication
- cherry-pick which mcp tools to expose to claude or cursor
- manage mcp tools for open webui
- apply middleware to mcp requests for observability and security
- convert mcp servers to openapi
- group mcp servers into namespaces with public endpoints

## When to choose
- you use many MCP servers and want one unified endpoint for clients like Cursor, Claude Desktop, or Open WebUI
- you need centralized auth, tool filtering, and middleware across MCP servers
- you want a self-hosted dashboard to manage and inspect MCP server configurations

## When to avoid
- you only run a single MCP server locally with one client and need no aggregation
- you need stdio-only MCP endpoints without running a local proxy like mcp-proxy
- you want a fully managed cloud service rather than self-hosting Docker
