Bridge host-side MCP servers (that can't run in Linux containers) into agent containers via IPC files. Supports dynamic tool discovery — no hardcoded tool definitions needed. - src/mcp-bridge.ts: generic JSON-RPC subprocess manager with listTools() - src/ipc.ts: MCP request/response forwarding via IPC - src/index.ts: env-based server config (MCP_BRIDGE_SERVERS) - src/container-runner.ts: IPC dirs + bridge manifest - container ipc-mcp-stdio.ts: dynamic tool discovery at startup - .claude/skills/add-mcp-bridge/SKILL.md: feature skill Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Bridge host-side MCP servers (that can't run in Linux containers) into agent containers via IPC. Designed for macOS-native APIs like Apple Reminders/Calendar (EventKit) but works with any stdio MCP server.
• Generic JSON-RPC subprocess manager (src/mcp-bridge.ts)
• IPC-based request/response forwarding
• Dynamic tool discovery — no hardcoded tool definitions
• Env-based config: MCP_BRIDGE_SERVERS, MCP_BRIDGE_{NAME}_COMMAND/ARGS/ENV
• SKILL.md with /add-mcp-bridge install flow
Test plan
• Configure a host-side MCP server via .env
• Send a message and verify bridged tools appear
• Call a bridged tool and verify response passes through
