# Welcome to MCPHub

MCPHub makes it easy to manage and scale multiple MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers by organizing them into flexible Streamable HTTP (SSE) endpoints—supporting access to all servers, individual servers, or logical server groups.

## Core Concepts

### MCP Endpoints

MCPHub provides multiple ways to access your MCP servers:

- **Unified Access**: `http://localhost:3000/mcp` - Access all servers
- **Group Access**: `http://localhost:3000/mcp/{group}` - Access specific groups
- **Server Access**: `http://localhost:3000/mcp/{server}` - Access individual servers
- **Smart Routing**: `http://localhost:3000/mcp/$smart` - AI-powered tool discovery

### Protocol Support

- **HTTP MCP**: Modern streamable HTTP interface (recommended)
- **SSE**: Server-Sent Events for legacy compatibility
- **stdio**: Native MCP protocol for server communication
