Giving remote AI agents controlled access to locally running MCP servers
How do you let a remote AI agent reach an MCP server on your own machine without losing control? Don't expose the server directly — put a small gateway in front of it with one stable endpoint, a token you can revoke in seconds, and a short allowlist of permitted tools. Run the local process supervised so it restarts itself. The agent never touches your machine, only the doorway you built for it.
