# Building a Remote MCP Server on Cloudflare (Without Auth)
|
|
|
|
This example allows you to deploy a remote MCP server that doesn't require authentication on Cloudflare Workers.
|
|
|
|
## Get started:
|
|
|
|
[](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/?url=https://github.com/cloudflare/ai/tree/main/demos/remote-mcp-authless)
|
|
|
|
This will deploy your MCP server to a URL like: `remote-mcp-server-authless.<your-account>.workers.dev/sse`
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can use the command line below to get the remote MCP Server created on your local machine:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm create cloudflare@latest -- my-mcp-server --template=cloudflare/ai/demos/remote-mcp-authless
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Customizing your MCP Server
|
|
|
|
To add your own [tools](https://developers.cloudflare.com/agents/model-context-protocol/tools/) to the MCP server, define each tool inside the `init()` method of `src/index.ts` using `this.server.tool(...)`.
|
|
|
|
## Connect to Cloudflare AI Playground
|
|
|
|
You can connect to your MCP server from the Cloudflare AI Playground, which is a remote MCP client:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to https://playground.ai.cloudflare.com/
|
|
2. Enter your deployed MCP server URL (`remote-mcp-server-authless.<your-account>.workers.dev/sse`)
|
|
3. You can now use your MCP tools directly from the playground!
|
|
|
|
## Connect Claude Desktop to your MCP server
|
|
|
|
You can also connect to your remote MCP server from local MCP clients, by using the [mcp-remote proxy](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote).
|
|
|
|
To connect to your MCP server from Claude Desktop, follow [Anthropic's Quickstart](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user) and within Claude Desktop go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config.
|
|
|
|
Update with this configuration:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"calculator": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"mcp-remote",
|
|
"http://localhost:8787/sse" // or remote-mcp-server-authless.your-account.workers.dev/sse
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Restart Claude and you should see the tools become available.
