Check out Port for yourself 

Available tools

The Port MCP Server exposes different sets of tools based on your role and use case. The tools you see will depend on your permissions in Port.

Developers are typically users who consume and interact with the developer portal - querying services, running actions, and analyzing data. These tools help you get information and execute approved workflows.

Select which tools to use​

By default, when you open a chat with Port MCP, all available tools (based on your permissions) are loaded and ready to use. However, you can customize which tools are available if you want to focus on specific workflows.

For example, if you only want to query data from Port without building or modifying anything, you can limit the tools to just the read-only ones. This helps reduce complexity and ensures you don't accidentally make changes.

In Cursor, you can customize which tools are available through the UI after connecting to Port MCP. Once connected, you can select specific tools as shown below.
