// fonctionnement

Comment ça marche

Clarify your goal
Pick your source: an MCP server (HTTP/SSE or stdio), an OpenAPI spec URL/file, or a GraphQL endpoint.
Get mcp2cli
Run it zero-install with uvx, or install it globally with uv tool.
Connect and explore
Run with --list (and --search) against your source, adding --oauth or --auth-header if the API needs authentication.
Call and bake
Call a tool/operation as a subcommand; if you'll reuse it, bake the connection into a named tool and call it with @name.

// fonctionnalités

Pourquoi on l'adore

Three source types

--mcp (HTTP/SSE), --mcp-stdio, --spec (OpenAPI JSON/YAML, local or remote) and --graphql modes all expose commands the same way.

Zero codegen

Commands are generated at runtime from the live schema — no client SDK to generate, build or keep in sync.

Built-in OAuth

Authorization-code + PKCE and client-credentials flows across all modes, with token caching/refresh and a manual-callback mode for headless hosts.

Secret hygiene

Auth values support env: and file: prefixes so secrets don't appear in process listings; baked configs mask known credential values.

Bake mode

Save a source, filters (--include/--exclude/--methods) and cache TTL as a named tool in ~/.config/mcp2cli/baked.json, even installable as a wrapper command.

Agent-friendly output

--json guarantees valid JSON on stdout, TOON output trims tokens on large arrays, usage-aware ranking keeps --list short, and specs are cached with a configurable TTL.

// lancez-le

Lancez-le vous-même

Clone the repo
Clone mcp2cli if you want the source; the normal path is uvx/uv in step 2.
```
git clone https://github.com/knowsuchagency/mcp2cli.git
cd mcp2cli
```
Run or install
Run directly without installing, or install it globally.
```
uvx mcp2cli --help
# or: uv tool install mcp2cli
```
List and call tools
List an MCP server's tools, then call one as a subcommand (OpenAPI and GraphQL sources work the same way with --spec / --graphql).
```
mcp2cli --mcp https://mcp.example.com/sse --list
mcp2cli --mcp https://mcp.example.com/sse search --query "test"
```

// cas d'usage

Ce que vous pouvez créer

Questions fréquentes

Who maintains mcp2cli?

knowsuchagency maintains it; the package is on PyPI as mcp2cli.

Is it free?

Yes, MIT-licensed.

Does it need a paid API key?

Only whatever the target API itself requires — mcp2cli adds auth-header and OAuth support to supply it, including from env vars or files.

How does it compare to an MCP gateway like MetaMCP?

A gateway hosts aggregated servers for clients to connect to. mcp2cli is the opposite direction: it consumes MCP/OpenAPI/GraphQL sources and presents them as a local CLI for humans, scripts and agents.
