## Project history and usage

hyper-mcp is a Rust Model Context Protocol server that extends MCP clients with WebAssembly plugins, with an emphasis on sandboxing, OCI distribution, and one server process that can host many tools.

### Project history

The project appeared in public release metadata in 2025 with a 0.1.x line. Its README describes the core idea as an MCP server for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible apps, where plugins can be written in languages that compile to WebAssembly and distributed through container registries.

By the 0.8.x release line, the project shipped Linux, macOS, and Windows binaries, MCP Bundles for one-click Claude Desktop installation, container images, and signed OCI artifacts.

### Adoption history

The Homebrew formula places hyper-mcp in the macOS and Linux package-manager path, while the README also documents GitHub release binaries, crates.io installation, and the project tap maintained by the hyper-mcp-rs organization.

### How it is used

Users create a JSON configuration that lists plugins by URL, commonly `oci://` images in a registry, then run `hyper-mcp` over stdio. Runtime configuration can constrain host access, memory, network hosts, and signature verification behavior.

### Why package nerds care

hyper-mcp is interesting because it packages the MCP server explosion as a plugin-runtime problem. Instead of installing a separate native MCP server for each tool family, it leans on WebAssembly, Extism, OCI images, and signature checks, which makes it feel closer to a package manager for AI tool plugins than a single-purpose server.

### Timeline

- 2025: v0.1.0 published in GitHub release metadata.
- 2026: v0.7.x releases shipped Linux and macOS binaries plus container images.
- 2026: v0.8.x releases added Windows binaries and MCP Bundles for Claude Desktop.

### Related projects
