MCPHub is a unified hub designed to simplify the management and scaling of multiple Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. It organizes these servers into flexible Streamable HTTP (SSE) endpoints, enabling access to all servers, individual servers, or logical server groups. This platform offers features like centralized management, flexible routing, and Docker-ready deployment for seamless operation.

Is mcphub open source?

Yes, licensed under Apache-2.0.

MCPHub manages several MCP servers in one place and exposes them as Streamable HTTP (SSE) endpoints: all servers together, a single server, or a logical group. A web dashboard shows and controls the servers, and servers can be added, removed or updated without downtime. The README also lists smart routing, which uses vector semantic search to discover the right tool, OAuth 2.0 in both client and server modes, GitHub and Google social login through Better Auth (this needs database mode), and a PostgreSQL database mode for storing configuration in production.

Setup is a `mcp_settings.json` file in the familiar `mcpServers` format plus one Docker command that maps port 3000 and mounts the config. The dashboard is at `http://localhost:3000` with a default `admin` / `admin123` login that you should change. Clients connect to `/mcp` for all servers, `/mcp/{group}` or `/mcp/{server}` for a subset, and `/mcp/$smart` for smart routing. The README notes that MCP endpoints require authentication by default and that disabling bearer authentication should only be done in trusted environments. The stack is Node.js, Express and TypeScript with a React front end, and it is Apache-2.0 licensed with documentation at docs.mcphubx.com.

02Flexible Routing

03Smart Routing (AI-powered tool discovery)

04Hot-Swappable Configuration

05Docker-Ready Deployment

Why choose it

+One endpoint per client instead of configuring every MCP server in every client

+Groups let you expose only the servers a given client or team needs

+Hot-swappable configuration, a dashboard, OAuth 2.0 and an optional PostgreSQL mode for production

+Smart routing can cut the number of tools a model has to choose from

Trade-offs

!The default dashboard login is `admin` / `admin123`, so change it before exposing the hub

!Disabling bearer authentication exposes every aggregated server's tools; the README says to do this only in trusted environments

!Social login requires database mode, which adds a PostgreSQL dependency

!It is one more service in the path, and stdio servers it launches run on the hub's machine
