"Popular MCP tools commonly used by programmers" matching MCP servers:

Provides read-only, governance-audited operations for OLVM and oVirt 4.5 engines, enabling inventory, health, capacity, and diagnosis queries over MCP and CLI with audit logging and budget guards.

Governed AI-ops for Ceph, providing root-cause health analysis and guarded destructive operations via a built-in governance harness with risk tiers, audit, and undo recording.

An MCP server for managing and monitoring Docker, Docker Compose, and Kubernetes environments alongside Azure Application Insights. It enables advanced log filtering, container lifecycle management, and querying of cloud application traces and metrics.

Presents a plausible, tool-rich workspace surface — file reading, credential listing, command execution, database queries, and configuration retrieval — that returns only synthetic results while logging every connection, tool call, and argument received. It enables researchers to measure what MCP clients and agents actually do when handed dangerous-sounding tools, including whether they follow injected instructions or complete a retrieve-then-use credential chain.

Provides AI agents with tools to retrieve live system statistics (CPU, memory) and safely evaluate basic arithmetic expressions.

Enables smart branch kiosks to run policyholder lookups, actuarial surrender-vs-loan comparisons, VIP queue token issuance, and BigQuery APM analytics through modular MCP tools.

MCP server for Grubhub Data Platform operations, providing 40+ tools across 18 service categories for data platform management, observability, analytics, and collaboration.

A monorepo of MCP toolkits for Cloudflare Workers, providing over 630 tools across SaaS providers and AWS, with composite tools for security, incident response, billing, and cloud cost optimization.

Governed AI-ops for managed-endpoint fleets, providing login-storm analysis and patch/config drift detection with built-in audit, budget, and risk-tier governance.

Provides a set of read-only Kubernetes functions via an MCP server, enabling interaction with Kubernetes clusters through agents or coding assistants like GitHub Copilot.

Governed reverse-proxy operations for Traefik, Caddy, and HAProxy — backend-health, cert-expiry, 5xx, and route-conflict RCA, with unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Governed MySQL + MariaDB DBA operations — slow-query, lock-wait/deadlock, replication, and fragmentation RCA, with unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Governed Redis + RabbitMQ middleware operations — memory-pressure, latency, backlog, and churn RCA, with guarded queue/key writes, unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Governed PostgreSQL DBA operations — slow-query, bloat, and blocking-lock RCA, index management, vacuum/analyze, and replication lag, with unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Governed network controller-layer operations (Cisco Meraki, plus Catalyst Center / Arista CVP / UniFi) — uplink loss/latency RCA, fleet health scoring, and config-template drift, with unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, and rollback.

Governed Prometheus + Grafana operations — firing-alert and scrape-target RCA, alert noise/flapping analysis, silences, and dashboards, with unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Governed MinIO object-storage operations — capacity, exposure-surface audit, lifecycle, and healing RCA, with guarded bucket writes, unbypassable audit logging (MCP + CLI), budget/runaway guards, dry-run, and undo/rollback.

Enables governance-grade AIops for GPU inference clusters with root-cause analysis, metrics, and policy-governed operations for vLLM and Ray.

Governs and automates network monitoring across SolarWinds Orion and Paessler PRTG platforms with a unified MCP server, enabling querying, alert management, and governed writes with audit logging.

Provides financial audit reporting and ledger query tools for AI agents, enabling generation of compliance, risk, and transaction reports and querying of transaction data, balances, and summaries from an in-memory SQLite database via MCP.
