The Problem

The MCP ecosystem is expanding at an extraordinary pace. Anthropic, Microsoft, Google, AWS, and Cloudflare are all publishing official MCP servers. Hundreds of open source servers exist for every conceivable integration. Developers are connecting AI tools — Claude, Cursor, Windsurf — to internal databases, codebases, APIs, and filesystems.

The infrastructure for doing this exists. The governance layer does not.

Today, at most engineering teams:

Every developer runs MCP servers on their own machine

There is no central record of what servers are active

There is no audit trail of what tools were called, by whom, or when

Credentials — GitHub personal access tokens, database connection strings, API keys — are stored in JSON files on developer laptops

There is no approval process for which servers developers can use

There is no isolation — MCP servers run with the full permissions of the local user

This is the gap MCPNest fills.
