Safe MCP Manager
Safe MCP Manager
Repository Purpose: This repository is dedicated to maintaining releases and capturing usage analytics for the Safe MCP Manager application. It does not contain the application source code.
About Safe MCP Manager
Safe MCP Manager is the fastest, easiest, and most secure way to get started with Model Context Protocol. The application handles the complexity of MCP setup while keeping your AI tools protected, allowing you to go from zero to fully functional MCP in just minutes instead of hours.
Tagline: "From Zero to MCP in Minutes, Not Hours"
The application provides a unified dashboard to manage MCP tools across AI applications like Claude and Cursor, with advanced security features including prompt injection protection, sandboxed servers, and smart proxy routing.

What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to Large Language Models (LLMs). MCP servers act as "smart" middleware between LLMs like Claude or GPT and external tools or services, translating natural language requests into structured operations and converting results back to LLM-understandable formats.
Key Features of Safe MCP Manager
🎯 Core Features
- Unified Dashboard: See which applications are connected and what tools are active at a glance. Monitor Docker and proxy status in real time.
- Per-App Tool Management: Easily toggle tools (like context7, filesystem, or firecrawl) per application. Activate/deactivate support for each tool independently.
- Environment-Aware Configs: Set environment variables (e.g., path restrictions, tokens) for specific tools. Stay in control of what data your tools can access.
- Smart Proxy Routing: Automatically generate configuration files that the Smart Proxy uses to route requests to the correct MCP servers.
- Docker Integration: Launch MCP tools in isolated Docker containers. Smart Proxy handles the orchestration with one click.
- Offline-Ready & Local-First: No cloud dependency. Your configurations, tools, and proxies run entirely on your machine.
🛡️ Security First Approach
- Rug Pull Protection: Tools are locked from making unexpected changes behind your back, so you're protected from bait-and-switch behavior.
- Prompt Injection Protection: Inputs and outputs are scanned in real time by the proxy using OpenShield.ai's advanced Prompt Injection scanner. It catches manipulative or malicious instructions before they ever reach the AI.
- Sandboxed Servers: Each tool runs in a secure container, isolated from your system, so even if one misbehaves, it can't do damage.
- Secure Gateway: All traffic goes through a checkpoint that can block or inspect tools before they interact with your AI.
- Trusted Tools Only: Tools come from verified publishers and are versioned, so you always know who made them and what version you're using.
Why MCP Security Matters
MCP servers often handle sensitive credentials and have access to critical systems, making them attractive targets for attackers. Common security risks include:
- Hardcoded secrets in server implementations
- Long-lived credentials without proper rotation
- Lack of access control governing secret usage
- No audit trails for security incidents
- Vulnerable tool definitions that can be exploited by malicious actors
Safe MCP Manager addresses these challenges by providing comprehensive security management specifically designed for the MCP ecosystem.
