FAQ from Kafka MCP Server

What are the prerequisites?

Docker or Go, and a running Kafka cluster. The quickstart uses docker run -p 9092:9092 apache/kafka:4.0.0.

How do I connect to my Kafka cluster?

Set the KAFKA_MCP_BOOTSTRAP_SERVERS environment variable or the --bootstrap-servers CLI flag.

Can I restrict the server to read-only?

Yes, use the --read-only flag to limit the server to read-only operations.

What is MultiplexTool?

A tool that batches multiple sequential tool calls into one request, with optional dynamic dependencies resolved via LLM prompts (currently Gemini requires GEMINI_API_KEY).

What authentication is supported?

The README does not mention authentication; it assumes a plain connection (e.g., to localhost:9092).
