1 | | -# Remote MCP Server on Cloudflare |
2 | | - |
3 | | -Let's get a remote MCP server up-and-running on Cloudflare Workers complete with OAuth login! |
4 | | - |
5 | | -## Develop locally |
6 | | - |
7 | | -```bash |
8 | | -# clone the repository |
9 | | -git clone [email protected]:cloudflare/ai.git |
10 | | - |
11 | | -# install dependencies |
12 | | -cd ai |
13 | | -npm install |
14 | | - |
15 | | -# run locally |
16 | | -npx nx dev remote-mcp-server |
17 | | -``` |
18 | | - |
19 | | -You should be able to open [`http://localhost:8787/`](http://localhost:8787/) in your browser |
20 | | - |
21 | | -## Connect the MCP inspector to your server |
22 | | - |
23 | | -To explore your new MCP api, you can use the [MCP Inspector](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/tools/inspector). |
24 | | - |
25 | | -- Start it with `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector` |
26 | | -- [Within the inspector](http://localhost:5173), switch the Transport Type to `SSE` and enter `http://localhost:8787/sse` as the URL of the MCP server to connect to, and click "Connect" |
27 | | -- You will navigate to a (mock) user/password login screen. Input any email and pass to login. |
28 | | -- You should be redirected back to the MCP Inspector and you can now list and call any defined tools! |

36 | | -</div> |
37 | | - |
38 | | -## Connect Claude Desktop to your local MCP server |
39 | | - |
40 | | -The MCP inspector is great, but we really want to connect this to Claude! Follow [Anthropic's Quickstart](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user) and within Claude Desktop go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config to find your configuration file. |
41 | | - |
42 | | -Open the file in your text editor and replace it with this configuration: |
43 | | - |
44 | | -```json |
45 | | -{ |
46 | | - "mcpServers": { |
47 | | - "math": { |
48 | | - "command": "npx", |
49 | | - "args": ["mcp-remote", "http://localhost:8787/sse"] |
50 | | - } |
51 | | - } |
52 | | -} |
53 | | -``` |
54 | | - |
55 | | -This will run a local proxy and let Claude talk to your MCP server over HTTP |
56 | | - |
57 | | -When you open Claude a browser window should open and allow you to login. You should see the tools available in the bottom right. Given the right prompt Claude should ask to call the tool. |
58 | | - |
59 | | -<div align="center"> |
60 | | - <img src="img/available-tools.png" alt="Clicking on the hammer icon shows a list of available tools" width="600"/> |
61 | | -</div> |
62 | | - |
63 | | -<div align="center"> |
64 | | - <img src="img/claude-does-math-the-fancy-way.png" alt="Claude answers the prompt 'I seem to have lost my calculator and have run out of fingers. Could you use the math tool to add 23 and 19?' by invoking the MCP add tool" width="600"/> |
65 | | -</div> |
66 | | - |
67 | | -## Deploy to Cloudflare |
68 | | - |
69 | | -1. `npx wrangler kv namespace create OAUTH_KV` |
70 | | -2. Follow the guidance to add the kv namespace ID to `wrangler.jsonc` |
71 | | -3. `npm run deploy` |
72 | | - |
73 | | -## Call your newly deployed remote MCP server from a remote MCP client |
74 | | - |
75 | | -Just like you did above in "Develop locally", run the MCP inspector: |
76 | | - |
77 | | -`npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector@latest` |
78 | | - |
79 | | -Then enter the `workers.dev` URL (ex: `worker-name.account-name.workers.dev/sse`) of your Worker in the inspector as the URL of the MCP server to connect to, and click "Connect". |
80 | | - |
81 | | -You've now connected to your MCP server from a remote MCP client. |
82 | | - |
83 | | -## Connect Claude Desktop to your remote MCP server |
84 | | - |
85 | | -Update the Claude configuration file to point to your `workers.dev` URL (ex: `worker-name.account-name.workers.dev/sse`) and restart Claude |

| 40 | +### Prompt Examples |
| 41 | + |

| 64 | + |
| 65 | +## Access the remote MCP server from from any MCP Client |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +If your MCP client has first class support for remote MCP servers, the client will provide a way to accept the server URL (`https://bindings.mcp.cloudflare.com`) directly within its interface (for example in [Cloudflare AI Playground](https://playground.ai.cloudflare.com/)). |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +If your client does not yet support remote MCP servers, you will need to set up its respective configuration file using [mcp-remote](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote) to specify which servers your client can access. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +Replace the content with the following configuration: |
86 | 72 |
|
87 | 73 | ```json |
88 | 74 | { |
89 | 75 | "mcpServers": { |
90 | | - "math": { |
| 76 | + "cloudflare": { |
91 | 77 | "command": "npx", |
92 | | - "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://worker-name.account-name.workers.dev/sse"] |
| 78 | + "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://bindings.mcp.cloudflare.com/sse"] |
93 | 79 | } |
94 | 80 | } |
95 | 81 | } |
96 | 82 | ``` |
97 | 83 |
|
98 | | -## Debugging |
| 84 | +Once you've set up your configuration file, restart MCP client and a browser window will open showing your OAuth login page. Proceed through the authentication flow to grant the client access to your MCP server. After you grant access, the tools will become available for you to use. |
99 | 85 |
|
100 | | -Should anything go wrong it can be helpful to restart Claude, or to try connecting directly to your |
101 | | -MCP server on the command line with the following command. |
102 | | - |
103 | | -```bash |
104 | | -npx mcp-remote http://localhost:8787/sse |
105 | | -``` |
106 | | - |
107 | | -In some rare cases it may help to clear the files added to `~/.mcp-auth` |
108 | | - |
109 | | -```bash |
110 | | -rm -rf ~/.mcp-auth |
111 | | -``` |
