Could you build this?

Partial While the admin dashboard and basic proxying are simple to vibe-code, multiplexing bidirectional stdio/SSE streams and securely orchestrating arbitrary containerized or local MCP processes requires non-trivial systems programming.

What it would actually take: A robust version requires Go or Rust for the proxy gateway to efficiently handle concurrent JSON-RPC over stdio and Server-Sent Events (SSE), backed by Docker socket bindings or isolated sandboxes (gVisor/Firecracker). The primary difficulties involve stateful IPC process management, graceful process lifecycle handling (npx/uvx/docker), and fine-grained access control token validation under high concurrency without leaking host credentials.
