What is the MCP Elicitation Proxy MCP server?

If you already use MCP Elicitation Proxy, the mcp elicitation proxy mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. A transparent MCP proxy that adds elicitation for missing required tool arguments while preserving upstream tool discovery and schemas.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • query — project

Installation

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @modelcontextprotocol/inspector on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Where it fits

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. MCP Elicitation Proxy's toolset — query — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by robertocirillo; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
