Kafka Sentinel
About
Read-only Kafka observability MCP server: cluster health, consumer lag, and replay-readiness.
Use this server
Add it to your MCP client. The catalogue lists this config verbatim from its source — it does not run, download, or vouch for the server. Review the command before you run it.
