Model Context Protocol β server landscape for LMP stack Β· Audited 2026-03-09
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard by Anthropic that lets AI models connect to external tools and data sources via a standardised JSON-RPC interface. An MCP server exposes tools (callable functions), resources (readable data), and prompts (guided workflows). Agents in OpenClaw can be configured with any MCP server, extending their capabilities without custom code. Transports: stdio (local subprocess), Streamable HTTP (remote), SSE (legacy).
Direct stack matches β deploy or test immediately
Official Cloudflare suite β 15 sub-servers: DNS Analytics, Workers Builds, Observability, Radar, AI Gateway, AutoRAG, Audit Logs, R2, D1, and more. Hosted remotely β zero local install.
Official Portainer MCP. Query and manage containers/K8s through Portainer API via AI. Read-only mode available. Pre-built Go binary, no runtime deps.
MCP bridge for MikroTik RouterOS β manage VLANs, firewall rules, DNS, routing via AI. Only MikroTik MCP in existence. Active development.
Full Mattermost API wrapper β list/read/send messages, create posts, monitor channels on schedule for alert topics. Zero-install via npx.
MCP bridge connecting Claude.ai web UI (or Claude Desktop) to your OpenClaw gateway. Enables Claude.ai to delegate tasks to local agents. OAuth 2.1 + PKCE, Docker-native.
Persistent semantic memory β SQLite/Cloudflare D1/S3. Knowledge graphs, semantic search, cross-references, LLM deduplication, RAG chat, event notifications.
SmartEmailing API integration β campaign management, contact management, email sending, and webhook integration. Built during Skills Day (2026-03-26). Used by Harry CRM for email delivery.
Solid fits β test before committing to production
PostgreSQL MCP β query execution, schema exploration, EXPLAIN plans, table stats. Read-only by default. TS + Python dual impl. Docker-friendly (creator's own claim).
19-tool Google Sheets MCP β create, read, update, batch ops, sharing, formatting. Service account auth (automation-friendly). Tool filtering to reduce context.
SSH host management β organise hosts into groups, run commands across multiple hosts concurrently, background execution for long-running commands (auto-bg at 30s). BadgerDB state.
Production-grade GraphRAG platform β 5 index types (vector, full-text, graph, summary, vision), hybrid retrieval, MineRU PDF parsing, Docker Compose, K8s Helm charts.
Inverse approach β Mattermost bot that acts as an MCP client, routing messages to any MCP server pool via LangGraph. Thread-aware. OpenClaw alternative/complement.
Local-first AI memory with causal DAG β zero network, single binary, sqlite-vec semantic search. Causal graph tracks "X caused Y caused Z" across code changes. Claude Code companion.
Good quality, relevant when stack expands
Docker-based MCP: kubectl, helm, istioctl, argocd. Supports EKS/GKE/AKS. Non-root, command validation, pipe support (jq, grep). Same author as aws-mcp-server.
Full AWS CLI (200+ services) via 2 MCP tools. IAM policy is the security boundary. Docker sandbox mode available. Well-documented security model.
Claude Code companion β checkpoints, mistake memory, loop detection (warns at 3x same file), scope guards, impact analysis, convention storage. Local Ollama powered.
48-tool enterprise NotebookLM server β deep_research (Gemini 3 grounded), video/audio generation, batch notebooks, webhook notifications. 14 security layers.
"MCP of MCPs" β auto-discovers, configures, and chains other MCP servers for a goal. Deep search mode: plan β test β act. Remote hosted, zero setup.
Smart chunked reading of large files β read by chunk, jump to line, regex search, LRU cache. Designed for logs, CSVs, large codebases without hitting context limits.
