Agentic Data Plane

Connect Tools with MCP Servers

MCP servers expose tools and data to your agents. Plug in a managed type from the catalog, or build, register, and test a server of your own.

  • How MCP Servers Work

    Connect AI agents to your databases, APIs, and business systems through managed MCP servers Redpanda hosts, or self-managed servers you register.

  • Plug in an App, Database, or Tool

    Reference of every managed MCP server type Redpanda hosts, grouped by category, with descriptions and links to setup guides.

  • Create an MCP Server

    Create an MCP server. Pick a managed type from the marketplace or register one you host, then configure authentication, code mode, and access.

  • Register a Self-Managed MCP Server

    Front your own MCP server with a managed Redpanda URL. Pick a transport, configure authentication, and let agents discover its tools.

  • Test an MCP Server’s Tools with the Inspector

    Use the Inspector tab to call tools, inspect resources and prompts, and verify your MCP server works without standing up an agent.

  • Use an MCP Server from an AI Client

    Add an MCP server hosted in Agentic Data Plane to Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, or another AI client, sign in, and start calling its tools.

  • Shape Tool Data with Data Policies

    Add data policies to an MCP server to mask, drop, or filter tool data, restrict argument values, and preview the effect before saving.

  • Code Mode

    Turn on code mode for an MCP server to replace a large tool catalog with two tools, search and execute, and cut the token cost of tool-heavy servers.
