## โœจ What is MCP Gateway?

**MCP Gateway** is a lightweight and highly available gateway service written in Go. It enables individuals and organizations to convert their existing APIs into services compliant with the [MCP Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) โ€” all through configuration, with **zero code changes**.

### ๐Ÿ”ง Core Design Principles

- โœ… Zero Intrusion: Platform-agnostic, supports deployment on bare metal, VMs, ECS, Kubernetes, etc., without modifying existing infrastructure
- ๐Ÿ”„ Configuration-Driven: Convert legacy APIs to MCP Servers using YAML configuration โ€” no code required
- ๐Ÿชถ Lightweight & Efficient: Designed for minimal resource usage without compromising on performance or availability
- ๐Ÿงญ Built-in Management UI: Ready-to-use web interface to simplify setup and reduce operational overhead
