View guide →Call MCP servers from TypeScript or the CLI — MCP tools disguised as a simple TypeScript API.
mcporter is an open-source dev tools project by openclaw (openclaw/mcporter on GitHub). It has 5,053 GitHub stars and 349 forks, is released under the MIT license, and was last updated on GitHub on 7 October 2026.
List the servers (local stdio or remote HTTP) whose tools you want from scripts or a CLI.
Run it with npx, install the Homebrew tap, or install it globally from npm.
Let mcporter discover your existing client configs, or write a config file with HTTP/stdio definitions, env placeholders and OAuth settings.
List a server's tools, then call one from the CLI or from TypeScript with the server proxy.
createServerProxy maps MCP tool names to callable camelCase properties, with results wrapped as text, Markdown, JSON, image or raw content helpers.
Any MCP server can be exercised — and packaged — as a command-line tool, one call or long-lived.
Connects to stdio, Streamable HTTP and legacy SSE servers, negotiating the current or legacy MCP protocol revisions per server.
Imports server definitions from the MCP client formats you already use; config files accept JSONC, environment placeholders, OAuth settings, tool filters and lifecycle policy.
Keeps persistent connections to long-lived servers for interactive workflows, including answering form and URL elicitations from the CLI.
callOnce handles a single configured call with clean setup and teardown for scripts and cron-style jobs.
Clone MCPorter if you want the source; most users run it via npx.
git clone https://github.com/openclaw/mcporter.git
cd mcporterInstall globally from npm, or via the Homebrew tap.
npm install -g mcporter
# or: brew install steipete/tap/mcporterInspect a remote MCP server's tools and call one directly from the CLI.
npx mcporter list https://mcp.context7.com/mcp --brief
npx mcporter call https://mcp.context7.com/mcp.resolve-library-id query="React hooks docs" libraryName=reactMCPorter is maintained by openclaw and contributors; its site is mcporter.sh.
Yes — it is open source under the MIT license.
No. MCPorter is a client-side tool; the MCP servers you call may have their own auth, which mcporter's config supports via env placeholders and OAuth settings.
Client apps are interactive hosts for models; MCPorter is for code and shell — calling MCP tools from TypeScript or CLI scripts deterministically, without a chat UI.
npx mcporter list against any MCP server URL to see its tools, then npx mcporter call to invoke one.
