Scouter MCP

A stdio MCP server that connects directly to a Scouter Collector over TCP and queries XLogs, counters, and objects. Its purpose is to let an AI quickly explore Scouter metrics and diagnose root causes. Each result carries txid / gxid / objName / endTimeIso, which you can use as keys to cross-analyze with other observability tools such as OpenSearch or Datadog. Its 14 documented tools cover xlog, summary, counter.

People who need these tools inside Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Java.
