Could you build this?

Partial Creating an MCP server wrapper is trivial, but managing secure OAuth flows, fine-grained access policies, and maintaining integrations across 100+ external SaaS APIs is a large ongoing undertaking.

What it would actually take: Requires an orchestration backend built with Node.js/Go that hosts an MCP server, credential management layer, and OAuth refresh system. The hard part is implementing granular action-level access controls across disparate third-party schemas (Slack, Gmail, Notion, Stripe) and navigating varying OAuth scopes and rate limits. It requires substantial security auditing, token vault engineering, and continuous maintenance of third-party APIs.

Feature requests: Support plain Docker or Kubernetes deployment, Load existing agent memory to avoid starting fresh, Clarify choice of GitHub for memory storage
