Code Mode inspired local sandboxed MCP Gateway (github.com)

Forgemax has unveiled its innovative Code Mode MCP Gateway, a streamlined system that consolidates multiple servers and tools into a highly efficient dual-tool architecture, significantly reducing the complexity of managing traditional tools in AI applications. The new setup minimizes resource use to approximately 1,000 tokens and utilizes a sandboxed environment for executing JavaScript against APIs, ensuring secure execution without exposing sensitive information. The functionality includes a "search" tool for discovering capabilities and an "execute" tool for running code within isolated V8 instances, effectively reducing the potential attack surface of tool interaction. This advancement is significant for the AI/ML community as it addresses critical issues related to tool schema complexity and security. Traditional methods require numerous round-trips and have extensive context windows, which complicate interactions and increase vulnerability. The Code Mode leverages a better design inspired by Cloudflare's sandboxing, offering robust pre-execution validations and strict environment controls, which enhance security while enabling LLMs to efficiently function without being overwhelmed by irrelevant tool lists. Furthermore, the implementation of a modular architecture allows for progressive discovery and dynamic tool management, setting a new standard for how AI systems can interact with external APIs securely and effectively.
