Proxy Support

1MCP supports trust proxy configuration for deployment behind load balancers and reverse proxies like nginx, Apache, or Cloudflare.

Overview

When 1MCP runs behind a proxy, it needs to be configured to trust the proxy in order to correctly identify the client's IP address and the protocol (HTTP/HTTPS). This is essential for security features like rate limiting and for accurate logging.

Configuration

Trust proxy settings can be configured via the --trust-proxy command-line flag or the ONE_MCP_TRUST_PROXY environment variable.

For detailed information on the available options and how to configure them in your JSON file, CLI, or environment, please see the Configuration Deep Dive.

For specific examples and security considerations, refer to the Trust Proxy Reference.
