What is mcp-confluent?
The mcp-confluent server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that allows AI assistants to interact with Confluent Kafka and Confluent Cloud REST APIs. It acts as a bridge between AI tools and Confluent services, enabling natural language management of Kafka topics, connectors, and Flink SQL statements.
How to use mcp-confluent?
To use the mcp-confluent server, you need to configure it with your Confluent Cloud credentials using a .env file. Then, you can build and run the server, and configure your MCP client (like Claude Desktop or Goose CLI) to connect to the server's address. Once connected, you can use the client's interface to interact with Confluent Cloud resources through natural language commands.
