mcp-monitor

Overview

MCP System Monitor is a comprehensive monitoring solution that exposes system metrics via the Model Context Protocol. It allows LLMs to retrieve real-time information about CPU usage, memory consumption, disk I/O, network traffic, and running processes. The server is written in Go and provides a clean, stdio-based interface that integrates seamlessly with MCP-compatible clients. Each tool is well-documented with clear parameter descriptions and return value specifications.
