io.github.keysersoft/anythingmcp

Self-hosted MCP gateway: turn any API, database or MCP server into AI connectors — no code.

What is the io.github.keysersoft/anythingmcp MCP server?

AnythingMCP is a self-hosted, open-source MCP gateway that converts REST, SOAP, GraphQL, SQL/NoSQL databases and other MCP servers into custom connectors for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Cursor. It ships with 175+ pre-built adapters and includes a Knowledge Graph that maps how your connectors' data relates, plus AI skills for intelligent tool chaining.

AnythingMCP eliminates the need to write custom MCP servers for each API or database. Import an OpenAPI spec, Postman collection, WSDL, GraphQL schema or point it at a database, then expose it as a connector to any AI client. It handles auth (OAuth2, API keys, Basic, certificates), audit logging, role-based access control, and optionally builds a Knowledge Graph to help agents chain tools correctly across systems.

io.github.keysersoft/anythingmcp MCP server FAQ

What is AnythingMCP?

AnythingMCP is a self-hosted MCP gateway that converts REST, SOAP, GraphQL, databases and other MCP servers into AI connectors. It eliminates the need to write custom MCP servers — import a spec or point it at a system, configure auth and access control, and expose it to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot or Cursor.

Is AnythingMCP free?

Yes, AnythingMCP is open source under AGPL-3.0. You can self-host it for free. A cloud-hosted demo is available at https://cloud.anythingmcp.com, and one-click deployment options exist for Railway and DigitalOcean.

How do I install it in Claude or Cursor?

For Claude: add AnythingMCP as a custom connector in Settings → Connectors using the gateway URL and OAuth 2.0 credentials. For Cursor: configure the MCP server endpoint (default http://localhost:4000/mcp) in your settings. See docs/integrations/claude.md and docs/guides.md for step-by-step instructions.

What authentication methods does it support?

AnythingMCP supports OAuth2 (PKCE + Client Credentials), Bearer tokens, API keys, Basic auth, WS-Security, client certificates, LOGIN_TOKEN and OAuth 1.0a handshakes. Credentials are stored AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest.

Does it require an LLM API key?

No. The gateway, visual editor, Knowledge Graph and audit logging work fully without an LLM key. AI features (graph enrichment, skill generation) are optional and opt-in — they require an OpenAI, OpenRouter or Anthropic key if enabled.

What databases does it support?

AnythingMCP supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MSSQL, Oracle, MongoDB and SQLite. It auto-generates query tools with parameter mapping and can expose database queries as MCP tools.

AnythingMCP is a self-hosted, open-source smart, AI-empowered MCP gateway and MCP server that turns the systems you already run into Model Context Protocol tools — REST and SOAP APIs, GraphQL, SQL & NoSQL databases, and even other MCP servers. Import a spec or point it at a database, and expose it as a custom connector to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor and any MCP-compatible client. No SDK, no code changes — point, configure, connect.

It ships with 175+ ready-to-use adapters — including Deutsche Bahn, weclapp ERP, Etsy, Shopware, DHL and Sendcloud — so the most common integrations work in one click, while the visual editor and import tools (OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, cURL, WSDL, GraphQL) let you wrap any other API or database in minutes.

What makes it smart, not just a pipe: AnythingMCP builds a per-workspace Knowledge Graph of how your connectors' data relates, serves it back to the agent over MCP so it chains tools correctly across systems, and turns how your tools are actually used into reusable AI skills. A plain gateway forwards calls; AnythingMCP gives your agents the context to use them well. (All AI features are optional and opt-in — the gateway works fully without them.)

Knowledge Graph & AI skills

Beyond exposing tools, AnythingMCP can map how the data in your connectors relates — and feed that context back to the AI client so it chains tools correctly across systems.

  • Knowledge Graph — a per-workspace map of entities (customers, orders, products…) and their relationships. It builds itself from tool names, parameters and the input/output of real calls; an optional AI pass infers the cross-connector links heuristics miss. It stays PII-safe: it stores entity/field names and relationship metadata, never the values.
  • Build it visually — a graph editor lets you create, edit and delete entities and connections by hand, add descriptions, and curate what the AI proposed. Zoom/fit controls, connectivity-based layout and hover focus make a large graph navigable.
  • Served over MCP — each server exposes a kg_how_to_obtain tool so the customer's agent can ask "how do I get this?" and receive chaining hints across connectors.
  • AI skills — reusable business rules captured from how the tools are actually used (e.g. "today's revenue includes order statuses 2, 3 and 4"), reviewed by a human, then composed into the MCP server's instructions — so they guide the agent without adding any extra tool calls. Search, status tabs and pagination keep them manageable at scale; optional auto-apply for high-confidence skills and an AI "consolidate" action merges overlapping ones into fewer rules.

The AI passes (graph enrichment, skill generation, scheduled extension) work with OpenAI, OpenRouter or Anthropic and are off by default — opt-in with a global env flag and a per-workspace switch. The graph, manual editing and the MCP tool work with no LLM key at all.

Build custom Claude connectors — no code

Claude supports custom connectors: remote MCP servers you add once in Settings → Connectors, and that work across Claude.ai, Claude Desktop and Claude Code. AnythingMCP creates that connector from any API you already have — without writing an MCP server:

  1. Import your API spec (OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, cURL, WSDL, GraphQL introspection) or pick a pre-built adapter
  2. Adjust tool names, descriptions and parameters in the visual editor — what the AI sees is up to you
  3. Add the gateway URL to Claude as a custom connector (OAuth 2.0 supported out of the box)

Your credentials stay on your infrastructure (AES-256-GCM at rest), every tool call lands in the audit log, and role-based access controls which users see which tools. Step-by-step guide →


Turn your API into a ChatGPT app

Apps in ChatGPT — what OpenAI renamed connectors to in December 2025 — are built on MCP, and AnythingMCP gives you that MCP backend without writing one. Point it at your REST, SOAP, GraphQL or database endpoint and you get a ChatGPT-ready connector: add it in ChatGPT's settings (or use it as the tool layer of an Apps SDK app) and ChatGPT can read and act on your business data.

The same connector works simultaneously in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Cursor — build once, connect everywhere. ChatGPT setup guide →


Why AnythingMCP

AI clients speak MCP, but your systems speak REST, SOAP, GraphQL and SQL. Writing and maintaining a bespoke MCP server per system — with auth, audit and access control — takes weeks each. AnythingMCP is the no-code layer in between:

ProblemSolution
You have REST APIs but AI clients speak MCPREST → MCP conversion with OpenAPI / Swagger import
You have legacy SOAP/WSDL servicesSOAP → MCP bridge with automatic WSDL parsing
You need to query databases from AI agentsDB → MCP with auto-generated query tools (7 engines)
You want one MCP gateway for all your APIsMCP middleware that aggregates multiple connectors
You need an MCP server for Deutsche Bahn / DHL / weclapp / …175+ pre-built adapters — install in one click
You can't ship credentials to a SaaS gatewayRuns on your infrastructure — credentials AES-256-GCM at rest
You need auth, audit logs, and RBACBuilt-in OAuth2, audit log, and role-based access — no DIY

Typical use cases — search train schedules and live delays with Deutsche Bahn · talk to your ERP from Claude (weclapp, Xentral) · track parcels with AI (DHL, GLS) · validate invoices (VIES VAT, Handelsregister) · let agents query production databases safely · bridge legacy SOAP to modern AI · import a Postman collection and get MCP tools instantly.


Pre-configured MCP connectors

AnythingMCP ships with 175+ ready-to-use adapters — provide your API credentials at import time and the tools become available immediately. Every adapter has a setup guide on anythingmcp.com/guides (English, German, Italian).
