When Multi-Account MCP Management Falls Short

The author discusses whether simply duplicating MCP entries remains manageable when connecting a single service to multiple accounts, environments, or clients.
They argue that bottlenecks will emerge across multi-token setups, multi-permissions, prod/staging environments, customer data isolation, and auditing needs like identifying which account the AI actually used. To solve this, they built an open-source tool called Miftah, which sits in front of existing MCP servers to provide:
- Named profiles
- Removal of secrets from MCP client configs
- Profile switching
- Enforcement of policy / approval rules
- Recording of desensitized logs
They are also seeking users with 2+ accounts/environments to trial it for a week, aiming to determine if the current setup is "good enough" or if "it's time to upgrade."
