Read-only Kafka access for AI agents — list/describe topics, per-partition offsets (lag), list consumer groups, peek the most recent messages of a topic, and cluster health. No producing; the message peek does not commit offsets. Works with self-hosted Kafka, Confluent Cloud, and MSK (TLS + SASL).
Tools: kafka_list_topics · kafka_describe_topic · kafka_topic_offsets · kafka_list_groups · kafka_consume_recent · kafka_health.
