Main
Use it when payload size is the bottleneck: transform noisy APIs into slim MCP tools and keep response shaping at the boundary (context control).
Start from a stable OpenAPI spec: import one known-good spec (like the README example) before wiring production APIs.
Treat the control plane credentials as dev-only defaults: change them and put the platform behind your internal network boundaries.
Source-backed notes
- README describes reShapr as an open-source, no-code MCP server that transforms REST/GraphQL/gRPC services into optimized tools.
- README quickstart: install CLI via
npm install -g @reshapr/reshapr-cli, thenreshapr runto start containers and a control plane at http://localhost:5555. - README shows importing an OpenAPI file and mentions a resulting MCP server endpoint under http://localhost:7777/mcp/....
FAQ
- Do I need Docker?: For the local platform path, yes — README says
reshapr runstarts containers via Docker. - What protocols are supported?: README lists REST, GraphQL, and gRPC as inputs for transformation.
- Can I try it without installing locally?: Yes — README points to a hosted try site; use it for quick evaluation.
