Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote, read-only MCP server that lets an assistant search ~84,000 AI agent tools (MCP servers, Agent Skills, Claude Code plugins) and fetch install details.

What you can do
  • Search ~84k agent tools by keyword, filtered by type, official, live or free-to-try, with ranked results, stars and badges
  • Fetch full details for one tool by exact name, including repo, install or connect line and the tool list a remote server exposes
  • List all KitScout categories with tool counts to see what kinds of tools exist
  • Use results to plan a multi-step automation and name the tool chosen for each step
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to recommend or wire up MCP servers, skills or plugins for a workflow, for example finding tools to post a Slack message when a Jira issue closes. It is a discovery aid, not a tool that performs the workflow itself.
Requirements
A remote Streamable HTTP endpoint; no API key, account or environment variables are declared. The assistant client must support remote HTTP MCP servers.
Before you install
Read-only and free, but the README states an anonymous log of calls is kept (time to the minute, country code, client app name, search keywords and returned result names). Search keywords are therefore sent to a third party. Install lines and tool lists come from the index and should be verified before use.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open KitScout in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/dev.kitscout%2Fkitscout/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

README

KitScout MCP server

Let your AI agent find the right tool for the job. KitScout indexes ~84,000 AI agent tools — MCP servers (official MCP Registry), Agent Skills (GitHub SKILL.md) and Claude Code plugins — with GitHub stars, categories and a daily live check of every remote MCP server (does it answer? does it work without an API key?).

Tools

ToolWhat it does
search_tools(query, type?, only_official?, only_live?, only_free_to_try?, limit?)Ranked keyword search across MCP servers, skills and plugins. Each result: type, category, stars, badges (first_party = made by the product's own maker, verified_publisher, live, free_to_try), where it runs, install line, KitScout page.
get_tool(name)Full details for one tool, including the actual tool list a remote server exposes (from our live check) and a ready-to-paste connect/install line.
list_categories()All categories with tool counts.

Example prompt: "I want to post a Slack message whenever a Jira issue is closed. Find tools for each step with KitScout."

Privacy

We keep an anonymous log of calls (time to the minute, country code, client app name, search keywords and the result names returned) to learn which tools agents need. No IP addresses, accounts, headers or file contents. Full policy: https://kitscout.dev/privacy

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
