mcpward

Production-grade gateway for MCP servers, built for solo devs and small teams.

The problem

Auth is broken

OAuth lifecycle doesn't match agent lifecycle. Clients fragment auth implementation.

No audit trail

53% of MCP servers use static API keys with zero logging.

Endpoints die silently

52% of remote MCP endpoints are dead (April 2026 analysis, 2,181 endpoints).

Get started in 2 minutes

Then point your MCP client at mcpward:

// Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcpward": {
      "url": "https://mcpward.redfleet.fr/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer mw_sk_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}
