Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

The last MCP server you'll ever need.

A universal, all-in-one MCP server that brings the full power of the Universal Tool Calling Protocol (UTCP) to the MCP ecosystem.

🚀 Quick Start

Add this configuration to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, etc.):

{
"mcpServers": {
"utcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@utcp/mcp-bridge"],
"env": {
"UTCP_CONFIG_FILE": "/path/to/your/.utcp_config.json"
}
}
}
}

That's it! No installation required. The bridge will automatically:

  • Download and run the latest version via npx
  • Load your UTCP configuration from the specified path
  • Register all your UTCP manuals as MCP tools
  • Provide a unified interface to manage your tool ecosystem

🔧 Configuration

Create a .utcp_config.json file to configure your tools and services:

{
"load_variables_from": [
{
"variable_loader_type": "dotenv",
"env_file_path": ".env"
}
],
"manual_call_templates": [
{
"name": "openlibrary",
"call_template_type": "http",
"http_method": "GET", 
"url": "https://openlibrary.org/static/openapi.json",
"content_type": "application/json"
}
],
"post_processing": [
{
"tool_post_processor_type": "filter_dict",
"only_include_keys": ["name", "description"],
"only_include_tools": ["openlibrary.*"]
}
],
"tool_repository": {
"tool_repository_type": "in_memory"
},
"tool_search_strategy": {
"tool_search_strategy_type": "tag_and_description_word_match"
}
}

Claude Code (CLI)

For Claude Code (the CLI / IDE extension), register the bridge as a user-scoped MCP server:

claude mcp add-json --scope user utcp '{"type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["@utcp/mcp-bridge"],"env":{"UTCP_CONFIG_FILE":"/absolute/path/to/.utcp_config.json"}}'

Then restart Claude
