Composio connects AI agents to 1,000+ app toolkits with managed auth, delegated user connections, sessions, tool search, MCP gateway support, CLI workflows, and sandboxed workbench execution. It targets developers building Claude, Codex, Cursor, LangChain, CrewAI, OpenAI Agents SDK, and custom agent workflows that need authenticated business actions without hand-rolling every API integration.

Composio provides tool integrations and execution environments for AI agents and LLMs. It features a Free plan with 100,000 monthly tool calls and 50,000 triggers for up to 3 team members. The Pro plan starts at $29/month with scaling overages ($4/1k extra calls), and Enterprise tiers include custom KMS credential management and SLAs.Review →

Toolhouse

freemiumexplicit relation

Cloud platform providing optimized tools for AI agents with a universal SDK for Python and TypeScript. Works with any LLM provider and enables one-line tool integration. Handles authentication, rate limiting, and caching for external APIs so agent developers can focus on logic rather than plumbing, dramatically reducing the boilerplate needed for production agents.

Freemium cloud tool execution platform for AI agents. Free plan offers $0/mo with 500 tool executions per month. Developer plan is $19/mo including 2,500 executions ($0.008/overage). Team tier is $99/mo with 15,000 executions and shared team bundles. Enterprise/Business tiers range from $500–$1,200+/mo or custom contracts with 25,000–80,000+ executions, private VPC residency, SOC 2 compliance, and 99.9% uptime SLAs.

MCP InspectorMCP Inspector is the official interactive developer tool from the Model Context Protocol team for testing, debugging, and validating MCP servers. It provides a visual interface to inspect available tools, test transport configurations, export configs for different clients, and verify protocol compliance during MCP server development.MCP-ScanMCP-Scan is a security tool that scans MCP servers for vulnerabilities including tool poisoning, prompt injection, cross-origin escalation, and rug pull attacks. Acquired by Snyk in 2026, it is the first dedicated security scanner for the MCP ecosystem. It analyzes tool descriptions, permissions, and behavior patterns to detect malicious or compromised MCP servers before they can exploit AI agents.GitHub MCP ServerGitHub MCP Server is the official Model Context Protocol server from GitHub that connects AI assistants to repositories, issues, pull requests, workflows, and code search. It exposes 100+ operations with toolset filtering, permission scoping, and audit logging, available in both remote-hosted and self-hosted Docker deployment modes.MCP RegistryThe official, community-run registry for discovering and publishing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers — an open index that MCP clients read to find available servers.Context7Context7 is an MCP server developed by Upstash that injects up-to-date, version-specific documentation directly into AI code editors and coding assistants. By typing 'use context7' in prompts, developers get accurate library documentation instead of hallucinated or outdated API references. It pulls from official source documentation and serves it through the Model Context Protocol, solving the common problem of LLMs generating code with incorrect or nonexistent API calls.GStackGStack transforms Claude Code into a structured virtual engineering team through 23 opinionated slash command skills created by Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan. It assigns specialist roles including CEO product review, engineering manager architecture oversight, designer visual audit, QA lead with real browser testing, and release engineer deployment. Each skill enforces focused workflows with clear decision principles for running parallel coding sessions.chrome-devtools-mcpchrome-devtools-mcp is the Chrome DevTools team's official MCP server that lets coding agents control and inspect a live Chrome browser with first-party Chrome DevTools Protocol fidelity. It exposes Network inspection, Performance traces, Lighthouse audits, console output, and structured DOM snapshots as typed MCP tools, so agents can debug real pages and ship reliable web performance investigations without resorting to brittle DOM scraping.Docker MCP GatewayDocker MCP Gateway is Docker's open-source orchestration layer for Model Context Protocol servers. It gives MCP clients one gateway, launches catalog servers in isolated containers on demand, injects credentials, applies runtime restrictions, and routes tool requests. Catalogs and profiles let teams reuse approved server collections across clients, while Docker Desktop can run the gateway automatically with MCP Toolkit enabled.FastMCPFastMCP is an Apache-2.0 Python framework for building MCP servers, clients, and apps with decorators, type hints, transports, auth patterns, deployment docs, and telemetry hooks. The project now resolves to PrefectHQ/fastmcp, with Prefect Horizon available as a separate enterprise MCP gateway for identity, RBAC, audit, monitoring, and server governance.
