Which AI tools work with MCP (Model Context Protocol)?
Of the 53 tools Loadout tracks, 32 document an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server or MCP integration that an agent such as Claude Code, Codex or Cursor can connect to. Each entry quotes the note from our Agent-Ready audit and links the official page we checked. We did not connect to these servers; this is a public-docs review.
21 tools had no MCP documentation we could find; they are listed at the bottom so you can rule them out.
Sources: pricing is quoted from each vendor's pricing page on the date shown; Agent-Ready points come from our public-docs audit with a link per point; ranks are from our use-case rankings (initial editorial, pending tests). See methodology and disclosures.
