ipvolt Proxy Toolkit MCPサーバー

ipvolt Proxy Toolkit

An MCP server for finding reviewed proxy documentation, generating tested configuration examples and diagnosing structured proxy failures. The public tools run locally against a bundled catalog. They do not need an API key or access to an ipvolt proxy account.

The toolkit is separate from ipvolt's commercial proxy service, which is not open yet. It does not provision proxies, buy traffic, access account data or configure another agent's network route.

Availability

The published npm version 0.1.0 and public hosted service provide four tools using a bundled public catalog. Check release status for verified npm availability, the hosted endpoint and registry listings. Source builds work independently of those distribution channels. Registry metadata in server.json describes the intended release and is not evidence that a channel is live.

Tools

Tool	What it does	Availability
search_proxy_docs	Search reviewed guides and articles; return canonical links, excerpts and a content revision.	Hosted and local
get_proxy_doc	Retrieve a named document or section in bounded chunks, with revision-bound continuation cursors.	Hosted and local
generate_proxy_config	Return an exact-version HTTPS GET template with local environment placeholders. It does not execute code.	Hosted and local
diagnose_proxy_error	Interpret structured observations such as CONNECT407, TLS failure or an ambiguous timeout; state uncertainty and retry boundaries.	Hosted and local
check_proxy_route	Make one bounded request through an explicitly configured local proxy to the fixed ipvolt echo endpoint.	Local, explicitly enabled

For example, search with {"query":"curl proxy","topic":"setup"}, then retrieve {"documentId":"/guides/curl-proxy-setup"}. Generate a synchronous HTTPX example with {"client":"httpx","version":"0.28.1"}. Diagnose a proxy authentication failure with {"client":"httpx","version":"0.28.1","phase":"proxy_connect","status":407}. A 407 observation points to proxy authentication; it does not establish whether a password, account state or access policy is responsible.

Use short topic queries and structured observations. Supply credentials only through your local environment when you execute a generated example or enable the local diagnostic. Never send credentials, private URLs or raw logs as tool arguments.

Build and connect locally

Requires Node.js 24 or newer and npm. From the repository directory:

npm ci
npm run build
npm run check:content
node dist/transports/stdio.js --version

For a client that accepts a mcpServers configuration, use an absolute path to the compiled entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ipvolt": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/proxy-toolkit-mcp/dist/transports/stdio.js"]
    }
  }
}

The default local server exposes four tools, sends no telemetry and makes no network requests. A client may send tool results to its own model provider. The server cannot control that client's data handling.

For the npm distribution, use the pinned package version after confirming its availability in release status:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ipvolt": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "@ipvolt/proxy-toolkit-mcp@0.1.0"]
    }
  }
}

Exact real-application and protocol results are recorded in client compatibility.

Tested configuration examples

Client	Version	Tested interface
curl	8.22.0	Command line, macOS/OpenSSL
Requests	2.34.2	Session, Python 3.14.7
HTTPX	0.28.1	Synchronous Client, Python 3.14.7
Playwright	1.63.0	APIRequestContext, Node 24.20.0

Templates use an HTTP proxy with HTTPS CONNECT, verify destination TLS, disable redirects and automatic retries, and print status or a bounded failure category. The destination and proxy remain local TARGET_URL and PROXY_URL variables. Requests and HTTPX timeouts are phase/inactivity budgets; they are not total job deadlines. Playwright's example uses its request API, buffers the response and is intended for small diagnostic targets. It does not configure browser navigation.

The exact matrix was executed against controlled authenticated proxies and HTTPS origins. See fixture method and evidence. Other versions, proxy protocols and platforms are not claimed to have been tested. Review generated code before executing it against an authorized destination.

Optional local route diagnostic

Set IPVOLT_ENABLE_ROUTE_CHECK=1 and provide the private IPVOLT_PROXY_URL through your MCP client's local secret environment. Invoke check_proxy_route with {"profile":"default"}. The tool accepts no proxy URL, credential or destination argument. Enabling it performs no request until the tool is called.

The check uses an HTTP CONNECT proxy and verified destination TLS to request only https://mcp.ipvolt.com/egress, with a random nonce. It has a ten-second total deadline, no redirect or direct fallback, one active request, bounded headers/body and cancellation cleanup. The HTTP connection to the proxy is not encrypted; HTTP proxy authentication can be observed on that first hop. Use a trusted network or a local tunnel appropriate to your setup.

Success reports the exit address seen by that one echo request. It does not prove anonymity, country, proxy type, ownership, or the routing of a browser, shell, SDK or other agent tool. It consumes a small amount of proxy bandwidth. The echo service receives the request's exit address; application access logging is disabled. Diagnostic debug/TLS settings that could expose credentials or weaken verification are rejected.

The diagnostic requires the hosted echo service to be available. Check release status before enabling it. Controlled fixture checks do not claim a successful request through a live supplier.

Hosted service

The public remote URL is https://mcp.ipvolt.com/mcp, using Streamable HTTP. Select that transport in your MCP client and enter the URL. Public HTTPS, all four tools on both supported protocol versions, and the echo endpoint were verified on 14 September 2026; see hosted verification. It exposes the four public tools without signup or an API key. The local route diagnostic is omitted and direct attempts to call it are rejected. No proxy configuration is accepted by this service.

For a local development instance:

IPVOLT_MCP_PUBLIC_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3040/mcp npm start

The process binds to loopback. Production configuration and coordinated rollback are documented in deployment instructions. Default bounds are 32 KiB request bodies, 8 KiB headers, 16 concurrent requests and 120 requests per minute per observed peer address. Exact browser origins are allowlisted. Reverse-proxy address headers are trusted only with an explicitly configured loopback proxy that overwrites them.

Hosted metrics contain only the tool name, success/error status, duration and toolkit version. Tool arguments, result bodies, credentials and exit addresses are not logged. Rate limiting retains temporary keyed address hashes for up to 60 seconds; local stdio usage is untracked. Machine endpoints use noindex and remain separate from the public website's consent-controlled analytics.

Maintain and verify

npm run typecheck
npm run build
npm test
npm run check:content
npm run check:manifest
npm run check:package
python3 -m unittest discover -s deploy -p 'test_*.py' -v

check:package inspects the actual npm tarball, installs it in a temporary consumer directory and discovers/calls all four tools with the current and legacy protocol paths. check:content -- --live compares every bundled Markdown document to its public canonical export; it performs only those allowlisted public reads.

The runtime does not crawl the website. A maintainer exports only the reviewed public guide/blog catalogs from a verified website source using scripts/export-content.ts, reviews the resulting diff and publishes a new immutable package version. Drafts and private operational applications are outside that allowlist. Bundle and document SHA-256 values make source changes observable.
