All proprietary code, company references, and internal API details have been removed. The mock inventory API replaces the original domain.\n\n## Features\n\n- **All 3 MCP primitives** — Tools (CRUD), Prompts (file-based templates), Resources (multi-scheme URI routing)\n- **Dual transport** — Stdio (Claude Desktop/Code) + HTTP (web clients, multi-session)\n- **JWT auth** with auto-refresh, caching, and inflight request deduplication\n- **Field filtering** — allowlist-based data sanitization strips internal fields before LLM sees them\n- **LLM response instructions** — embedded guidance prevents the LLM from exposing sensitive data\n- **LLM-as-judge adversarial tests** — 22 attack scenarios across 6 security categories\n- **Built-in mock API** — clone and run in 5 minutes, no external dependencies\n- **Low-level MCP API** — uses `Server` + `setRequestHandler` to demonstrate protocol-level understanding\n\n## Quick Start\n\n\u003e Requires Node.js ≥22\n\n```bash\n# 1. Clone and install\ngit clone https://github.com/nlorber/mcp-rest-bridge.git\ncd mcp-rest-bridge\nnpm install\n\n# 2. Start the mock API\nnpm run dev:mock\n\n# 3. In another terminal, start the MCP server\nnpm run dev\n\n# 4. Configure Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"rest-bridge\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"tsx\", \"src/index.ts\"],\n      \"cwd\": \"/path/to/mcp-rest-bridge\",\n      \"env\": {\n        \"API_BASE_URL\": \"http://localhost:3100\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}\n\n# 5. Run tests\nnpm test\n```\n\n## Architecture\n\n```\nsrc/\n├── index.ts                  # Entrypoint — transport selection\n├── server.ts                 # Server factory — creates MCP server, registers handlers\n├── config.ts                 # Zod-validated configuration\n├── logger.ts                 # Structured logger (stderr, child loggers)\n├── protocol/                 # MCP protocol layer (API-agnostic)\n│   ├── tools/\n│   │   ├── registry.ts       # Tool registry — collects and exposes tool definitions\n│   │   ├── handler.ts        # CallTool dispatcher — routing, timeout, error handling\n│   │   └── response.ts       # Response builders with embedded LLM instructions\n│   ├── prompts/\n│   │   ├── handler.ts        # ListPrompts / GetPrompt handlers\n│   │   ├── loader.ts         # File-based prompt loading with caching\n│   │   └── template.ts       # {{variable}} substitution engine\n│   └── resources/\n│       ├── handler.ts        # ListResources / ReadResource handlers\n│       └── uri-router.ts     # Multi-scheme URI routing (api://, config://, prompt://)\n├── api/                      # API-specific layer (adapt to your API)\n│   ├── client.ts             # Auth-aware HTTP client\n│   ├── auth/\n│   │   └── token-manager.ts  # JWT lifecycle (acquire, refresh, cache, decode)\n│   ├── filters/\n│   │   ├── field-filter.ts   # Allowlist-based field filtering\n│   │   └── definitions.ts    # Filter definitions per entity/mode\n│   └── errors.ts             # HTTP → MCP error mapping\n├── tools/                    # Tool implementations (adapt to your API)\n│   ├── items/                # CRUD: list, get, create, update, delete\n│   └── categories/           # Read: list, get\n├── transport/\n│   ├── stdio.ts              # Stdio transport\n│   └── http.ts               # HTTP transport with session management\n└── utils/\n    ├── mcp-error.ts          # MCP error helpers\n    ├── timeout.ts            # Per-tool timeout wrapper\n    └── zod-helpers.ts        # Zod → JSON Schema conversion\n```\n\n## Tools\n\n| Tool | Description |\n|------|-------------|\n| `list_items` | List items with pagination, search, and filtering |\n| `get_item` | Get detailed item info by ID |\n| `create_item` | Create a new item |\n| `update_item` | Update an existing item |\n| `delete_item` | Delete an item |\n| `list_categories` | List all categories |\n| `get_category` | Get category details by ID |\n\n## Prompts\n\n| Prompt | Description | Arguments |\n|--------|-------------|-----------|\n| `summarize-entity` | Summarize an item or category | `entity_type` (required), `entity_id` (required) |\n| `generate-report` | Generate an inventory report | `report_type` (required), `format` (optional) |\n\n## Resources\n\n| URI | Description |\n|-----|-------------|\n| `config://server/settings` | Non-sensitive server configuration |\n| `api://mock/spec` | Mock API endpoint specification |\n| `prompt://templates/{id}` | Prompt templates with metadata |\n\n## Security Model\n\nSee [docs/SECURITY.md](docs/SECURITY.md) for the full security model.
