[ HOW TO CONNECT ]

Connect Sophtron to Bifrost in three steps

Install Bifrost

Start the gateway locally or deploy in your VPC.

npx -y @maximhq/bifrost

Add Sophtron 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 Sophtron 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 Sophtron.

  "mcpServers": {
    "bifrost": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8080/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer vk_your_virtual_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

[ EXAMPLE CONFIG ]

Register Sophtron 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": "sophtron",
    "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": "sophtron",
    "connection_type": "stdio",
    "stdio_config": {
      "command": "<upstream command>",
      "args": ["<arg>"]
    },
    "tools_to_execute": ["*"]
  }'

[ WHY BIFROST ]

Run Sophtron 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 Sophtron MCP server do?

Connect to your bank, credit card, utilities accounts to retrieve account balances and transactions with Sophtron Bank Integration. The exact tools available depend on the upstream server version and configuration.

How do I connect Sophtron to Bifrost?

Check the upstream documentation to determine whether Sophtron 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 Sophtron MCP server?

No. Bifrost connects to Sophtron as an upstream MCP client and adds a governed gateway between that server and your AI assistants.
