The official server (~48.9k stars) ships 52 tools across 10 categories, and the click/type automation everyone installed it for is the smallest part. 12 memory tools for heap snapshot analysis, 3 performance tools for trace recording, 8 debugging tools including Lighthouse, 4 third-party/WebMCP integrations. An agent can now take and diff heap snapshots directly instead of you squinting at a flame chart. If you installed this months ago, re-read the tool list.
