# OpenAI-Compatible Integration for MCP Gateway

This guide shows how to add OpenAI-compatible endpoints to your MCP Gateway so Open-UI and other OpenAI clients can use your MCP tools.

## Quick Setup (2 steps)

### Step 1: Import the OpenAI routes in `gateway-proxy/gateway_proxy.py`

At the top of the file, add:

```python
from openai_routes import chat_completions, list_models
```

### Step 2: Add the routes to your Starlette app

In the `app = Starlette(routes=[...])` section, add these routes before the closing bracket:

```python
        # OpenAI-compatible endpoints
        Route("/v1/models", list_models, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/v1/chat/completions", chat_completions, methods=["POST"]),
```

So your routes section should look like:

```python
app = Starlette(
    routes=[
        # Well-known discovery (Claude tries both with and without /mcp suffix)
        Route("/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource", well_known_protected_resource, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp", well_known_protected_resource, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server", well_known_oauth_authorization_server, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server/mcp", well_known_oauth_authorization_server, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/.well-known/openid-configuration", well_known_oauth_authorization_server, methods=["GET"]),

        # OAuth endpoints at /oauth/* (spec-standard)
        Route("/oauth/register", oauth_register, methods=["POST"]),
        Route("/oauth/authorize", oauth_authorize, methods=["GET", "POST"]),
        Route("/oauth/token", oauth_token, methods=["POST"]),

        # OAuth endpoints at root (Claude may construct these from base URL)
        Route("/register", oauth_register, methods=["POST"]),
        Route("/authorize", oauth_authorize, methods=["GET", "POST"]),
        Route("/token", oauth_token, methods=["POST"]),

        # MCP endpoint (OAuth-protected)
        Route("/mcp", handle_mcp, methods=["GET", "HEAD", "POST", "DELETE"]),

        # OpenAI-compatible endpoints
        Route("/v1/models", list_models, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/v1/chat/completions", chat_completions, methods=["POST"]),

        # Monitoring
        Route("/health", health, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/status", status, methods=["GET"]),
    ],
    lifespan=lifespan,
)
```

## Configuration

Update the route handler to pass required parameters. In `gateway_proxy.py`, modify the route definitions:

```python
from functools import partial

# Near the top where other routes are defined:
chat_completions_handler = partial(
    chat_completions,
    mcp_gateway_url="http://localhost:4444/mcp",
    access_tokens=ACCESS_TOKENS
)

list_models_handler = partial(
    list_models,
    gateway_config={"backends": BACKENDS}
)
```

Then update the routes:

```python
        Route("/v1/models", list_models_handler, methods=["GET"]),
        Route("/v1/chat/completions", chat_completions_handler, methods=["POST"]),
```

## Using with Open-UI

Once integrated and running:

1. **Gateway URL**: `https://mcp.wilddragon.net` (or your gateway URL)
2. **API Base URL in Open-UI**: `https://mcp.wilddragon.net/v1`
3. **Model**: `mcp-gateway`
4. **Bearer Token**: Use your generated token

### In Open-UI Admin Panel:

1. Go to Admin → Settings → Connections
2. Scroll to "Direct Connections"
3. Add new direct connection:
   - **API Base URL**: `https://mcp.wilddragon.net/v1`
   - **API Key**: Your bearer token

## API Endpoints

### `GET /v1/models`
List available models. Returns the MCP Gateway as a model option.

**Example:**
```bash
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  https://mcp.wilddragon.net/v1/models
```

### `POST /v1/chat/completions`
OpenAI-compatible chat completions endpoint.

**Example:**
```bash
curl -X POST \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "mcp-gateway",
    "messages": [
      {"role": "user", "content": "What tools are available?"}
    ]
  }' \
  https://mcp.wilddragon.net/v1/chat/completions
```

## What's Currently Supported

✅ **Available tools listing** - Shows all available MCP tools
✅ **Bearer token authentication** - Uses your existing OAuth tokens
✅ **Streaming responses** - OpenAI-compatible streaming format
✅ **Standard OpenAI request/response format**

## Next Steps (Optional Enhancements)

1. **Tool Calling**: Implement actual tool execution via MCP
2. **System Prompts**: Add custom system prompts for tool use
3. **Session Management**: Preserve MCP session state across requests
4. **Error Handling**: More detailed error messages for tool failures

## Troubleshooting

**"Unauthorized" error**: Make sure your bearer token is valid. Check that it's in `ACCESS_TOKENS` on the gateway.

**"No user message found"**: Ensure the request includes at least one message with role `"user"`.

**Tools not showing**: Check that your MCP backends are initialized and responding to `tools/list` requests.
