Custom MCP Servers allow you to bring any remote MCP server to be managed by Gate22. While you can browse and configure from 80+ pre-configured MCP servers, custom MCP servers give you the flexibility to integrate any MCP server that isn’t already available in our catalog.

Set up Operational Account

Important: You must provide an operational account when adding a custom MCP server.
The operational account is only used to retrieve tool lists from MCP servers, not by end users. This is required because:
  • Gate22 uses a search-and-execute pattern for bundles
  • Tool lists need to be embedded in our vector database ahead of time
  • Most MCP servers require authentication to return their tool lists

Connect Account and Sync Tools

After connecting your operational account, sync the tools to retrieve all tool descriptions and embed them for dynamic search.You’ll see a diff showing what tools changed every time you sync:
  • New tools added
  • Removed tools
  • Modified tools
