Implements Model Context Protocol (MCP) as a Cloudflare Worker with dual transport endpoints (/mcp for JSON-RPC and /sse for Server-Sent Events), both routing to the same GlobalpingMCP Durable Object agent. Uses Hono HTTP routing framework to demultiplex requests and maintain stateful agent instances across edge locations, enabling AI clients (Claude, Cursor, Gemini) to invoke network diagnostic tools through standardized MCP interface without transport-specific logic.
Unique: Routes both JSON-RPC and SSE transports to identical Durable Object instances, eliminating transport-specific branching logic while maintaining full MCP compliance. Uses Cloudflare's edge-native Durable Objects for stateful agent persistence rather than external databases, reducing latency and operational complexity.
vs alternatives: Simpler than standalone MCP servers (no separate process management) and faster than cloud-hosted alternatives due to edge-native execution, but constrained by Cloudflare's 30-second timeout for long-running diagnostics.
Registers five network diagnostic tools (ping, traceroute, mtr, http, dns) as MCP-compliant callables that translate natural language parameters into Globalping API requests routed to thousands of worldwide probe locations. Uses the Globalping npm client library to abstract API complexity, supporting location specification by continent, country, city, and network ASN, with automatic probe selection and measurement lifecycle management including polling for asynchronous results.
Unique: Abstracts Globalping's async measurement lifecycle (request → poll → result) into synchronous MCP tool calls by implementing polling loops within the Durable Object, hiding API complexity from Claude. Supports natural language location hints (e.g., 'from Germany') that are parsed and converted to Globalping location filters without requiring users to know probe IDs.
vs alternatives: More accessible than raw Globalping API (no polling logic needed) and broader than single-region tools like `ping` command, but slower than local network tools due to API round-trips and measurement time.
Implements PKCE-compliant OAuth 2.0 flow using @cloudflare/workers-oauth-provider, supporting both OAuth tokens and API key authentication with separate token management pipelines. OAuth state is stored in Cloudflare KV with TTL-based expiration, and tokens are persisted in Durable Object state for session continuity. Handles authorization code exchange, token refresh, and fallback to API key authentication for non-interactive scenarios, enabling both user-initiated and programmatic access patterns.
Unique: Dual authentication pipeline supporting both OAuth (for interactive users) and API keys (for programmatic access) with unified token storage in Durable Objects, eliminating the need for separate auth backends. Uses Cloudflare KV for OAuth state management with TTL, reducing operational overhead vs traditional session stores.
vs alternatives: More secure than API-key-only auth (PKCE prevents authorization code interception) and simpler than custom OAuth implementations, but requires Cloudflare infrastructure and doesn't support standard OAuth libraries like oauth2-proxy.
Maintains per-user MCP agent state using Cloudflare Durable Objects with embedded SQLite storage, enabling session continuity across multiple tool invocations and request batches. Each user gets a unique Durable Object instance that persists tool execution history, measurement results, and authentication context, with automatic state serialization and recovery on edge location failover. Implements the GlobalpingMCP class as a stateful agent that accumulates context across calls without requiring external databases.
Unique: Uses Cloudflare Durable Objects as the primary state store instead of external databases, eliminating network latency for state access and reducing operational complexity. Embeds SQLite directly in the Durable Object for structured storage without requiring separate database infrastructure.
vs alternatives: Faster than Redis-based session stores (no network round-trip) and simpler than multi-tier architectures, but less scalable than distributed databases and limited by Durable Object memory constraints.
Parses natural language tool invocations from Claude into structured Globalping API parameters by extracting target (IP/domain), location hints (continent/country/city), and protocol options through MCP tool schema validation. Maps user intent like 'ping google.com from Europe' to Globalping API calls with location filters, automatically selecting appropriate probe regions and measurement parameters without requiring users to understand API details or probe infrastructure.
Unique: Leverages Claude's native language understanding to parse diagnostic intent, then maps to Globalping API parameters through MCP schema validation, avoiding custom NLP pipelines. Supports implicit measurement type inference (e.g., 'trace to' → traceroute) without explicit user specification.
vs alternatives: More user-friendly than raw API calls but less precise than explicit parameter specification; relies on Claude's reasoning rather than custom parsing logic, making it adaptable to new measurement types without code changes.
Deploys the MCP server as a Cloudflare Worker application configured via wrangler.jsonc, enabling automatic global request routing to the nearest edge location with sub-100ms latency. Uses Cloudflare's global CDN to serve MCP endpoints from 300+ data centers, with automatic failover and load balancing. Integrates Durable Objects for stateful agent persistence and KV for session storage, all within Cloudflare's managed infrastructure without requiring separate server provisioning.
Unique: Eliminates traditional server infrastructure by deploying entirely on Cloudflare's edge network, with Durable Objects providing stateful persistence without external databases. Achieves global distribution through Cloudflare's 300+ data centers without replication logic.
vs alternatives: Faster deployment and lower operational overhead than self-hosted servers, but constrained by 30-second timeout and vendor lock-in; more expensive than Lambda for high-concurrency workloads due to Durable Object per-instance billing.
Provides standardized MCP server endpoints compatible with Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, and Gemini extensions through single codebase. Clients connect via JSON-RPC or SSE transports to invoke network diagnostic tools, with each client maintaining independent sessions through Durable Object routing. Configuration guides included for integrating into each client's MCP server list without client-specific code branches.
Unique: Single MCP server implementation serves Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Gemini without client-specific branching, leveraging MCP protocol standardization. Provides configuration templates for each client, reducing integration friction.
vs alternatives: More maintainable than separate servers per client, but requires users to manually configure each client; less seamless than native integrations but more flexible than proprietary APIs.
Implements polling loops within MCP tool handlers to wait for Globalping API measurements to complete, checking status at regular intervals until 'finished' state is reached or timeout expires. Abstracts the async Globalping API into synchronous MCP tool responses by blocking the Durable Object execution context, with configurable timeout thresholds to prevent exceeding Cloudflare's 30-second Worker timeout. Returns partial results or error states if measurements don't complete within timeout window.
Unique: Converts Globalping's async measurement API into synchronous MCP tool responses through polling loops, eliminating the need for clients to implement polling logic. Respects Cloudflare's 30-second timeout by reserving buffer time and failing gracefully if measurements exceed threshold.
vs alternatives: Simpler for clients than async/await patterns but slower than streaming results; more reliable than fire-and-forget but less efficient than true async MCP implementations.
