Koskamo

Kafka MCP

An open-source Model Context Protocol server that enables LLM agents to debug Kafka clusters. It provides tools to find messages by order ID, measure consumer lag, unblock stuck consumers, and compare cluster configurations. It supports read-only endpoints for safe investigation and previews before any write operations, connecting via stdio or streamable HTTP.
