The Remote StreamNative MCP Server exposes a wide catalog of tools. Clients can opt into specific capabilities at connection time by setting HTTP headers. This page summarizes the supported flags and feature names.

​
Header reference

  • X-MCP-Readonly — set to true when the client only needs read access. The remote server enforces read-only semantics for supported tools and skips operations that mutate resources.
  • X-MCP-Features — provide a comma-separated list of feature identifiers to narrow the tool catalog. When omitted, the server enables discovery for the default feature set, including Pulsar Functions and Orca agents as tools.

​
Available feature identifiers

Use these values inside the X-MCP-Features header， can use , to passing multiple tools.

​
Combination feature sets

  • all — enables every available capability across StreamNative Cloud, Pulsar, and Kafka.

  • kafka-admin-groups
  • kafka-admin-schema-registry
  • kafka-admin-connect

​
Usage tips

  • Start with a minimal feature list to reduce token usage and improve tool selection accuracy.
  • Add agents-as-tools or pulsar-functions-as-tools only when remote MCP clients should call Orca agents or Pulsar Functions directly.
  • Combine feature groups as needed. For example, X-MCP-Features: streamnative-cloud,pulsar-admin,agents-as-tools enables cloud context utilities, Pulsar administration, and agent tooling while leaving Kafka features disabled.
