Client details

Claude Desktop App

The Claude desktop application provides comprehensive support for MCP, enabling deep integration with local tools and data sources.

Key features:

  • Full support for resources, allowing attachment of local files and data
  • Support for prompt templates
  • Tool integration for executing commands and scripts
  • Local server connections for enhanced privacy and security

ⓘ Note: The Claude.ai web application does not currently support MCP. MCP features are only available in the desktop application.

Zed

Zed is a high-performance code editor with built-in MCP support, focusing on prompt templates and tool integration.

Key features:

  • Prompt templates surface as slash commands in the editor
  • Tool integration for enhanced coding workflows
  • Tight integration with editor features and workspace context
  • Does not support MCP resources

Sourcegraph Cody

Cody is Sourcegraph's AI coding assistant, which implements MCP through OpenCTX.

Key features:

  • Support for MCP resources
  • Integration with Sourcegraph's code intelligence
  • Uses OpenCTX as an abstraction layer
  • Future support planned for additional MCP features

Firebase Genkit

Genkit is Firebase's SDK for building and integrating GenAI features into applications. The genkitx-mcp plugin enables consuming MCP servers as a client or creating MCP servers from Genkit tools and prompts.

Key features:

  • Client support for tools and prompts (resources partially supported)
  • Rich discovery with support in Genkit's Dev UI playground
  • Seamless interoperability with Genkit's existing tools and prompts
  • Works across a wide variety of GenAI models from top providers

Continue

Continue is an open-source AI code assistant, with built-in support for all MCP features.

Key features

  • Type "@" to mention MCP resources
  • Prompt templates surface as slash commands
  • Use both built-in and MCP tools directly in chat
  • Supports VS Code and JetBrains IDEs, with any LLM

GenAIScript

Programmatically assemble prompts for LLMs using GenAIScript (in JavaScript). Orchestrate LLMs, tools, and data in JavaScript.

Key features:

  • JavaScript toolbox to work with prompts
  • Abstraction to make it easy and productive
  • Seamless Visual Studio Code integration

Cline

Cline is an autonomous coding agent in VS Code that edits files, runs commands, uses a browser, and more–with your permission at each step.

Key features:

  • Create and add tools through natural language (e.g. "add a tool that searches the web")
  • Share custom MCP servers Cline creates with others via the ~/Documents/Cline/MCP directory
  • Displays configured MCP servers along with their tools, resources, and any error logs

LibreChat

LibreChat is an open-source, customizable AI chat UI that supports multiple AI providers, now including MCP integration.

Key features:

  • Extend current tool ecosystem, including Code Interpreter and Image generation tools, through MCP servers
  • Add tools to customizable Agents, using a variety of LLMs from top providers
  • Open-source and self-hostable, with secure multi-user support
  • Future roadmap includes expanded MCP feature support

TheiaAI/TheiaIDE

Theia AI is a framework for building AI-enhanced tools and IDEs. The AI-powered Theia IDE is an open and flexible development environment built on Theia AI.

Key features:

  • Tool Integration: Theia AI enables AI agents, including those in the Theia IDE, to utilize MCP servers for seamless tool interaction.
  • Customizable Prompts: The Theia IDE allows users to define and adapt prompts, dynamically integrating MCP servers for tailored workflows.
