HYPER-MCP: Turbocharged Performance & Enterprise Scalability

hyper-mcp

Build, publish & run your Model Context Protocol (MCP) applet with ease.

Overview

hyper-mcp is a powerful MCP server that leverages WebAssembly plugins to extend its capabilities. At its core, it's a single, extensible MCP server that you can enhance with plugins written in any WebAssembly-compatible programming language. Think of it as a modular toolkit where each plugin adds new functionality without the overhead of running multiple MCP servers.

Whether you're using Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, or any other MCP-compatible application, hyper-mcp seamlessly integrates with your workflow while using standard OCI registries for plugin distribution.

Why hyper-mcp?

WebAssembly-First

• Easy local runtime embedding
• First-class support in many programming languages
• Leverages Extism's PDKs for simplified plugin development

OCI Registry Integration

• Uses existing container infrastructure
• Familiar packaging workflow with Dockerfiles
• Enables self-hosting for enterprise environments

Key Features

• Language Agnostic : Build plugins in any language that compiles to WebAssembly
• Simple Distribution : Package plugins using Dockerfile and publish to any OCI registry
• Universal Compatibility : Works with any MCP-compatible application
• Easy Configuration : Add new tools by simply editing a config file and restarting the MCP server

Quick Start

1. Create a configuration file at $HOME/.config/mcp.json:

{
  "plugins": [
    {
      "name": "time",
      "path": "oci://ghcr.io/tuananh/time-plugin:latest"
    },
    {
      "name": "qr-code",
      "path": "oci://ghcr.io/tuananh/qrcode-plugin:latest"
    },
    {
      "name": "hash",
      "path": "oci://ghcr.io/tuananh/hash-plugin:latest"
    },
    {
      "name": "myip",
      "path": "oci://ghcr.io/tuananh/myip-plugin:latest",
      "runtime_config": {
        "allowed_host": "1.1.1.1"
      }
    },
    {
      "name": "fetch",
      "path": "oci://ghcr.io/tuananh/fetch-plugin:latest",
      "runtime_config": {
        "allowed_host": "*"
      }
    }
  ]
}

The path can be:

• A local file path
• An HTTP URL
• An OCI image reference

2. Start the server:

$ hyper-mcp

Building Plugins

hyper-mcp uses Extism for plugin development. Check out our example plugins:

• Time plugin: Simplest plugin that allow you to ask LLM what time is it now.
• QR Code plugin: Generate QR image.
• Hash plugin: Generate all kind of hashes for you.
• My IP plugin: An example how to do HTTP request with hyper-mcp.
• Fetch plugin: An example how to fetch basic webpages. No full browser capability yet.

Publishing Plugins

Publishing a plugin to an OCI registry is straightforward:

1. Build your WebAssembly plugin
2. Create a Dockerfile:

FROM scratch
WORKDIR /
COPY --from=builder /workspace/target/wasm32-wasip1/release/your-plugin.wasm /plugin.wasm

3. Build and push:

docker build -t your-registry/plugin-name .
docker push your-registry/plugin-name
