The official Azure MCP Server brings Microsoft Azure to AI agents. It lets models query and manage Azure resources through natural language — Storage blobs and tables, Cosmos DB, Azure SQL, Key Vault, Monitor/Log Analytics (KQL), App Configuration, and more — and run Azure CLI commands, enabling cloud automation and infrastructure workflows directly from your tools.
Cloudinary's official MCP servers for managing media through conversational AI. Cover the full media workflow: uploading and transforming images and videos, organizing assets with structured metadata, configuring processing pipelines, and running AI-powered content analysis. Available as remote OAuth endpoints or local npx processes across several focused servers (asset management, environment config, structured metadata, and analysis).
Firebase's MCP integration exposes Firebase project context and development workflows to coding agents for building, testing, and operating Firebase applications.
Skills vs MCP servers
what’s the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skill packages know-how — instructions, an example prompt, and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP server gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transport. MCP adds connections and actions, not task instructions.
Rule of thumb: reach for a skill when you need the model to do a task well, and an MCP server when you need it to reach a tool or system. They compose — a skill can rely on tools an MCP server provides.
