Before you start
- Review the Roundtable upstream documentation for its installation requirements
- Obtain any credentials required by the upstream service
- A running Bifrost MCP Gateway instance
What you can do with Roundtable
- Unified integration layer that bridges multiple AI coding assistants (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini) through zero-configuration auto-discovery and enterprise-ready architecture.
- Expose Roundtable tools to Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients through one endpoint
- Apply virtual keys, tool allowlists, and audit logging at the gateway
[ HOW TO CONNECT ]
Connect Roundtable to Bifrost in three steps
Install Bifrost
Start the gateway locally or deploy in your VPC.
npx -y @maximhq/bifrost
Add Roundtable in MCP Gateway
Open MCP Gateway in the Bifrost dashboard, click New MCP Server, and select the transport documented by the upstream server. Or register via the API below.
• Confirm the transport, command or endpoint, and authentication requirements in the Roundtable upstream documentation.
• Replace every placeholder in the example before sending the request.
Point clients at Bifrost /mcp
Configure Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code to use your Bifrost endpoint with a virtual key instead of connecting directly to Roundtable.

}[ EXAMPLE CONFIG ]
Register Roundtable via API
Add this MCP client with a POST to /api/mcp/client. See Connecting to MCP Servers for full options.
# For a remote HTTP or SSE server:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/mcp/client \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"name": "roundtable",
"connection_type": "<http|sse>",
"connection_string": "<upstream MCP endpoint>",
"tools_to_execute": ["*"]
}'
# For a local STDIO server:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/mcp/client \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"name": "roundtable",
"connection_type": "stdio",
"stdio_config": {
"command": "<upstream command>",
"args": ["<arg>"]
},
"tools_to_execute": ["*"]
}'[ WHY BIFROST ]
Run Roundtable through one governed gateway
Access control
Virtual keys, RBAC, and tool allowlists per team or agent.
Cost governance
Attribute MCP tool spend alongside LLM usage in one view.
Observability
Log every tool call with latency, server, and virtual key metadata.
Credential isolation
Upstream secrets stay in the gateway — not on every laptop.
[ FAQ ]
Common questions
What does the Roundtable MCP server do?
Unified integration layer that bridges multiple AI coding assistants (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini) through zero-configuration auto-discovery and enterprise-ready architecture. The exact tools available depend on the upstream server version and configuration.
How do I connect Roundtable to Bifrost?
Check the upstream documentation to determine whether Roundtable uses STDIO, Streamable HTTP, or SSE. Then add it as an MCP client in Bifrost using the corresponding command or endpoint.
Does Bifrost replace the Roundtable MCP server?
No. Bifrost connects to Roundtable as an upstream MCP client and adds a governed gateway between that server and your AI assistants.
