# MCP HTTP-stdio Proxy

> Use this tool when you need to enable communication between stdio-based clients and HTTP-based Model Context Protocol servers. It solves problems of protocol incompatibility and facilitates remote server access by translating stdio requests to HTTP and managing sessions and authentication. The proxy takes stdio input and outputs HTTP requests, making it ideal for use cases where local stdio server functionality is required from remote HTTP servers.
