MCP Server Overview
mobileproxy/mcp-server connects MCP-compatible agents to mobileproxy.space for managing mobile, server, backconnect, and residential proxies.

Use it when an agent needs to operate proxy inventory or inspect proxy health without switching to the provider dashboard. It runs locally through npm or Docker, or remotely through a streamable HTTP endpoint.
Primary Use Cases for MCP Server:
- Check proxy health and expiring inventory
- Rotate IPs until they pass blacklist checks
- Move proxies to another country or operator
- Configure residential geo targeting and traffic bundles
