MCP Inspector

Official visual and CLI testing tool for debugging Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.

Desktopfreeglobal

MCP Inspector is the official developer tool from the Model Context Protocol project for testing and debugging MCP servers. It provides a web interface, a scriptable command-line client, and a terminal UI, all built on one shared core, so developers can connect to a server under development and directly exercise its tools, resources, and prompts. It's aimed at developers building or maintaining MCP servers who need fast, direct feedback instead of debugging through a downstream client.
