Anthropic Messages API MCP Connector

Fit

Anthropic’s Messages API MCP connector is not a direct fit today for SecureMCP-Lite.

Why:

• the Anthropic connector expects remote HTTP or SSE MCP servers
• SecureMCP-Lite is currently stdio-only

What would be needed

• HTTP or Streamable HTTP support inside SecureMCP-Lite
• or a separate remote wrapper service that exposes equivalent policy enforcement

Why this limitation is documented

If SecureMCP-Lite is presented as supporting every MCP surface today, the project becomes less trustworthy.

The correct positioning is:

• strong for local stdio clients today
• not yet a direct remote connector for API-based MCP platforms
