MCP.Pizza Chef: mcp-router

MCP Router is a desktop app for Windows and Mac that keeps every tool connection you use in one dashboard. Group them into projects, keep separate setups as workspaces the way a browser keeps profiles, and turn individual tools on or off. It connects to both local and remote tools, links up with Claude, Cursor, Cline and Windsurf, and shows a log of every request. Your settings and keys stay on your own machine.
