Stripe API

The developer's payment platform with APIs for accepting payments, managing subscriptions, handling billing, and fraud prevention, with an official MCP server.

Cloudflare DNS API

Cloudflare's REST API for managing DNS records, zones, page rules, firewall rules, and other Cloudflare services programmatically across managed domains.

Networking

E2B Code Interpreter API

E2B provides secure, isolated cloud sandboxes for running AI-generated code. Each sandbox is a full Linux VM that spins up in ~150ms, letting agents execute Python, JavaScript, bash, and other code safely without risk to host systems. Purpose-built for AI agents — supports file uploads, persistent processes, long-running sessions (up to 24 hours), and real-time stdout/stderr streaming.

Developer Tools

HashiCorp Vault API

Secrets management platform API for storing, accessing, and rotating secrets (API keys, passwords, certificates, database credentials). Provides dynamic secrets, encryption-as-a-service, and fine-grained access control.

Devops

Neon

Neon is a serverless PostgreSQL platform that separates compute from storage to enable instant database branching, scale-to-zero, and autoscaling. Each Neon branch is a full copy-on-write snapshot of the database, enabling safe schema migrations, isolated test environments, and per-PR previews with zero additional storage cost until data diverges. The Management API (REST) controls infrastructure: creating projects, branches, compute endpoints, and roles. The official Neon MCP server (25+ tools) gives AI agents direct control over the full Neon platform — running SQL, managing migrations on temporary branches, analyzing slow queries, and provisioning databases — making Neon one of the most agent-ready databases available.

Database

Adyen API

Enterprise global payment platform providing end-to-end acquiring, payment processing, risk management, and financial services for large-scale merchants across online, in-store, and mobile channels.

For agents

Query Assay at runtime

Your agent asks "what's the best payments tool?" — Assay answers in one database read. No LLM at query time. No hallucinated package names.

  • REST API — JSON, OpenAPI spec available
  • MCP Server — mount as a native agent tool
  • Scores, gotchas, alternatives — one call
  • Free tier: 100 queries/day, no account needed

How Assay works

1

Discover

Agents continuously discover MCP servers, APIs, and SDKs across GitHub, npm, PyPI, and vendor docs.

2

Evaluate

Each package is scored across three dimensions — Agent Friendliness, Security, and Reliability — with detailed sub-scores for transparency.

3

Query

Agents (and developers) query the directory at runtime to select the right tool for the job — via REST API or MCP server.
