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.PlaywrightCross-browser E2E testing framework by Microsoft supporting Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit with one API. Features auto-waiting, tracing with timeline/screenshots/DOM snapshots, codegen for recording tests, and parallel execution. Component testing for React, Vue, Svelte. Built-in API testing, network mocking, and mobile emulation. Known for reliability and speed vs Selenium/Cypress. 70K+ GitHub stars, rapidly becoming the E2E standard.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 By typing 'use context7' in prompts, developers get accurate library documentation instead of hallucinated or outdated API references.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.DeepEvalDeepEval is an Apache-2.0 Python framework for evaluating LLM apps, RAG systems, agents, MCP workflows, and safety behavior with repeatable test cases. It works locally and in CI/CD, then connects to Confident AI for hosted reports, observability, red teaming, and governance when teams need shared evidence instead of ad-hoc prompt reviews and manual QA.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.reviewdogreviewdog is an open-source automated code review tool that integrates any linter or static analysis tool with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Gitea pull requests. Parses output in errorformat, Checkstyle XML, SARIF, and JSON formats to post inline review comments on changed lines only. Works with GitHub Actions, Travis CI, CircleCI, GitLab CI, and Jenkins. Supports 40+ languages through universal linter adapter architecture.
