Check My Tools¶
Audit the current environment to verify all required MCPs and CLI tools are installed for a Bricks engineer.

GitHub CLI (gh) |
CLI | PR creation, issue management, repo operations | https://cli.github.com/manual/ | brew install gh |
How to audit¶
Check the following sources and report a status for each tool:
MCP servers¶
Paths like .cursor/settings.json and .cursor/mcp.json are relative to the workspace root (where .cursor/ lives in this monorepo), not under a single app package (e.g. not projects/front-mobile-app).
- Cursor plugins — read
.cursor/settings.jsonand checkpluginsobject for each MCP - Cursor MCP servers — read
.cursor/mcp.jsonfor manually configured servers - Claude Code MCPs — check available deferred tools (prefixed
mcp__) in the current session - Project MCP — read
.mcp.jsonor.mcp.json.examplefor project-level servers (bricks-intel) - Cursor (optional) — if a plugin is enabled but tools do not appear, check MCP connection in Cursor settings or
~/.cursor/projects/<workspace-folder-hash>/mcps/for loaded server folders
CLI tools¶
- Run
which ghto check GitHub CLI is installed - Run
gh auth statusto check authentication
Output format¶
Report a table with a single Cursor / Claude column reflecting the environment you are running in:
| Tool | Type | Available | Status |
|----------------|------|-----------|--------|
| Datadog | MCP | ✅ | OK |
| Postgres | MCP | ❌ | MISSING — see https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/postgres |
| ... | | | |
| GitHub CLI | CLI | ✅ | OK |
For any missing tool, include the docs link from the table above so the engineer can install it immediately.
