How to use
mcp-server-manager is a Go-based, single-binary application that provides a web interface to manage MCP servers. When you run the binary, it starts a lightweight web UI that lets you view the status of your MCP servers, configure their settings, and monitor logs in real time. The interface includes a dashboard, a configuration section for adding or modifying server instances, and a logs view to help you diagnose issues. Use it to organize multiple MCP servers from a single, easy-to-use panel without requiring additional programming knowledge.
To use it, download the appropriate binary for your operating system and run it. Access the web UI in your browser (the tool will typically bind to a local port, such as http://localhost:PORT). From the dashboard, add your MCP server instances by defining their identifiers and any necessary runtime settings. The configuration tab lets you modify server properties, start or stop servers, and apply changes in real time. The logs tab provides live output so you can monitor server activity and troubleshoot problems as they occur.
How to install
Prerequisites:
- A supported OS: Windows, macOS, or Linux
- No requirement to install Go or other dependencies (single binary)
- Sufficient permissions to execute the binary and bind to the chosen port
Install steps (Linux/macOS):
-
Download the appropriate binary for your system (examples shown are generic; replace with actual file names you downloaded):
- Linux: mcp-server-manager-linux-amd64
- macOS: mcp-server-manager-macos-amd64
-
Make the binary executable:
chmod +x mcp-server-manager-linux-amd64
or for macOS:
chmod +x mcp-server-manager-macos-amd64
-
Run the binary:
./mcp-server-manager-linux-amd64
or for macOS:
./mcp-server-manager-macos-amd64
Install steps (Windows):
-
Download the Windows executable (e.g., mcp-server-manager-windows-amd64.exe).
-
Double-click the executable or run it from Command Prompt:
mcp-server-manager-windows-amd64.exe
Note: If you encounter port conflicts, choose a different port via the UI or environment configuration if supported by the build.
Additional notes
Tips and notes:
- The binary is a self-contained tool; no runtime dependencies are required beyond the OS permissions.
- Ensure your firewall or security groups allow access to the port used by the web interface.
- If you plan to manage multiple MCP servers, organize them under distinct identifiers in the UI for easier management.
- Check the Logs tab for real-time output to diagnose startup errors or runtime issues.
- If you move the binary, update any shortcuts or service configurations accordingly.
- Some builds may offer command-line flags for port binding or data directories; if available, refer to the release notes for details.
