Frequently Asked Questions

MCP-Bridge is a free browser-based tool that converts OpenAPI v3 JSON specifications into ready-to-use Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configurations. No backend, no signup, and all processing happens in your browser.

No. The converter runs entirely in your browser. Your spec is parsed locally and never transmitted to any server. Your API data stays on your machine.

The generated configs work with any MCP-compatible client including Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue.dev, and any tool that supports the standard MCP configuration format.

No. The converter is completely free and requires no account, signup, or payment. Paste your spec and get your config instantly.

We support OpenAPI v3.0.x and v3.1.x JSON specs. The tool auto-detects the version from the openapi field in your spec.

Copy the generated JSON and add it to your MCP client's config file. For Claude Desktop, paste it into claude_desktop_config.json under the mcpServers key. For Cursor, add it to .cursor/mcp.json. Then set the required environment variables (API keys) and restart your client.

.cursorrules files tell Cursor AI how to behave in your project. They define coding conventions, preferred libraries, and patterns. Our directory includes ready-to-use .cursorrules for popular frameworks like React, Next.js, Python, and more.

Email us at apis@mcp-bridge.dev with your OpenAPI spec URL. We'll generate an MCP config and add it to the directory.

Yes. We offer premium .cursorrules bundles (curated packs for full-stack JS, AI/ML, and cloud-native stacks) and enterprise MCP config packs. Coming soon.

The core parser logic will be open sourced on GitHub. The website itself is a static Next.js export hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
