Description
The Microsoft MCP Gateway serves as an open-source reverse proxy and management interface for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, facilitating scalable and session-aware routing along with lifecycle management and centralized oversight of MCP services, particularly within Kubernetes setups. Acting as a control plane, it adeptly directs requests from AI agents (MCP clients) to the corresponding backend MCP servers while maintaining session affinity, effectively managing multiple tools and endpoints through a singular gateway that prioritizes authorization and observability. Additionally, it empowers teams to deploy, update, and remove MCP servers and tools through RESTful APIs, enabling the registration of tool definitions and the management of these resources with security measures such as bearer tokens and role-based access control (RBAC). The architecture distinctly separates the management of the control plane, which includes CRUD operations on adapters, tools, and metadata, from the data plane's routing capabilities, which support streamable HTTP connections and dynamic tool routing, thus providing advanced features like session-aware stateful routing. This design not only enhances operational efficiency but also fosters a more secure environment for managing AI services.
Description
Preloop serves as an open-source control plane designed for AI agents that perform tangible actions. It integrates a multi-layered security approach featuring an MCP firewall for managing tool access, an AI model gateway that ensures cost-effectiveness, safety, and accountability, along with policy-as-code that incorporates human oversight, all while providing runtime session visibility and audit trails—all within a self-hosted environment. Given the rapid capabilities of AI agents to deploy code, modify infrastructure, manage financial transactions, access production data, and incur model costs almost instantaneously, Preloop empowers teams to regulate agent activities, monitor expenditures, and determine which actions necessitate human consent. It is compatible with a variety of tools such as OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode, and any agents that adhere to MCP standards. Additionally, access rules can evaluate not only the tool names but also arguments and context, utilizing CEL expressions to establish detailed conditions. Furthermore, teams have the flexibility to initiate with observability features and progressively introduce approval and denial protocols without the need for SDKs or extensive modifications to existing applications, thus streamlining the implementation process. This comprehensive approach ensures that organizations remain in control of their AI agents' functionalities and impacts.
