send_requestLABSCO SUMMARY
A bridge from the conversation to services on your own network that an agent otherwise cannot reach.
The single tool takes the method, payload, headers, and a timeout, so an agent can poke a device or a local service — a status endpoint on a home-network box, say — and get the response back, with connection and timeout errors reported rather than swallowed.
What it is
A server built on FastMCP that gives an assistant one tool to send HTTP requests to local-network endpoints, with JSON payloads, custom headers, and proper timeout handling.
What you get
- send_request sends an HTTP request to a URL — method, JSON payload or query parameters, optional headers, and a timeout — with error handling for timeouts and connection failures
Requirements
Runs on Python via uv. No account or key; it reaches whatever local endpoints you point it at.
Setup effort
Build from source — git clone https://github.com/KazikGolinski/mcp-net-bridge
USE CASES
01
Calling a service on your LAN
send_request posts to a local endpoint with a JSON body and returns the response, so an agent can reach a device the internet cannot.
02
Checking a local endpoint's status
send_request issues a GET with query parameters and reports back, including a clear error if the host times out.
