Problem Description

As the MCP servers coming from different sources with different names, I want to edit the MCP servers name as Admin for users' better UX.

Desired Solution you'd like

Can we have a mcp server name edit function in OpenWebUI or MCPO http://IP:8000/docs ?

Thanks ~~

Hi, I have created a web interface for managing MCPO connections that is fully compatible with MCPO.

Looks good @daswer123

It looks like you include the base mcpo service in your codebase. Is the intention to include release changes to open-webui/mcpo into your app or maybe contribute config_service.py upstream?

I'm using the mcpo package from PyPI as a foundation (currently stable with version 0.0.14). The control panel is designed to work with new versions of mcpo if they maintain compatibility with how the configuration (mcp_config.json) is structured and how the process is invoked. The source code of mcpo itself has not been modified or included in this repository. The control panel operates by:

Calling the mcpo process externally.
Managing the mcp_config.json file to define and enable/disable MCP servers for mcpo to use.

Regarding the code in this repository, particularly config_service.py or other components: I'm completely open to the mcpo developers (or anyone else) using my work. Unfortunately, I don't have the capacity to prepare a formal Pull Request upstream at the moment, however, if someone finds my code useful and wishes to integrate it into the main mcpo project or elsewhere, I'm happy for them to do so. I would only ask for an mention. Feel free to modify and adapt the code from this mcpo-control-panel project as needed.
