Official Zapier MCP server that exposes thousands of app integrations and Zap actions to AI agents through a single remote endpoint. Lets agents trigger automations and perform actions across apps like Gmail, Slack, Google Sheets, and Salesforce without building custom integrations, with per-action scoping configured in the Zapier dashboard.
Official Apify MCP server that gives AI agents access to thousands of Actors for web scraping and automation. Agents can run Actors to extract data from websites, search engines, social platforms, and maps, then retrieve structured results from the dataset, enabling rich web research and data collection.
Official MCP server for the Perplexity API Platform. Provides AI agents with real-time web search, deep research, and advanced reasoning capabilities through Sonar models. Includes tools for quick web search, conversational Q&A with citations, comprehensive deep research reports, and complex analytical reasoning. Returns answers with source attribution and supports configurable timeouts for long research queries.
A powerful, native Go implementation of a Kubernetes MCP server with support for Kubernetes and OpenShift. Unlike kubectl wrappers, it interacts directly with the Kubernetes API server — no external CLI tools required. Distributed as a single lightweight binary for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Supports multi-cluster configurations, Helm chart management, Tekton pipelines, pod exec, log streaming, and optional OpenTelemetry distributed tracing.
Official Hugging Face MCP Server that connects AI assistants directly to the Hugging Face Hub ecosystem. Provides tools for searching and retrieving models, datasets, and research papers, running inference on thousands of Gradio-powered AI applications (Spaces), and accessing the full Hub API. Supports remote HTTP-streaming via https://huggingface.co/mcp with OAuth or Bearer token auth, as well as local stdio deployment. Works with Claude, Gemini CLI, VS Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client.
Provides comprehensive search capabilities through the Brave Search API via the Model Context Protocol. Enables AI agents to perform web searches, local business searches, image searches, video searches, news searches, and AI-powered summarization. Supports both STDIO and HTTP transports.
Official Atlassian Rovo MCP Server — a cloud-based bridge between Atlassian Cloud and any MCP-compatible AI tool. Enables AI agents to search, summarize, create, and update Jira issues, Confluence pages, and Compass components in real-time. Uses OAuth 2.1 or API token authentication, respects existing user permissions, and supports remote HTTP-streaming as well as local stdio via the mcp-remote proxy. Works with Claude, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, VS Code, Cursor, and ChatGPT.
Official Elastic MCP server that connects AI agents to Elasticsearch data using the Model Context Protocol. Enables natural language interactions with Elasticsearch indices — querying, analyzing, and retrieving data without custom APIs. Supports both stdio and streamable-HTTP transports, and works with Elasticsearch 8.x/9.x clusters including Elasticsearch Serverless. Distributed as a Docker container image from the Elastic registry.
Skills vs MCP servers
what's the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skillA reusable, structured prompt/workflow with recommended models, an example prompt, and compatible tools. packages know-how — instructions, an example promptA ready-to-use prompt template that demonstrates how to invoke the skill., and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP serverModel Context Protocol server — a standard way to expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents and IDEs. gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transportHow the client talks to the server: stdio (local process), SSE, or HTTP streaming.. 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.
