I built a Model Context Protocol server that allows users to interact with Kafka using natural language instead of complex CLIs. It uses LLMs to interpret commands in plain English and executes the corresponding Kafka operations. This makes Kafka more accessible to non-experts while maintaining its powerful functionality.

Nice. I built something similar but with Python https://github.com/jovezhong/mcp-timeplus

with pipy and uvx, it will be a bit easier for others to install the mcp server. Just to add a JSON, without need to download binary manually.

Looks cool. I started with python but then switched to go as I am more proficient in the later. I will go through your repo to learn how to construct MCP using python :)

Claude can help you write a lot of okay Python code. Yes, Go is great, but in this MCP case, because of uvx and pypi, as well as kafka python lib, choosing Python is not bad at all
