Getting Started with VaultPlane
VaultPlane is the secure control plane for AI tool infrastructure. This guide will help you understand MCP servers and start using them with your AI agents.
What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI models interact with external tools and data sources. Think of it as a USB-C port for AI — a universal way to plug tools into any AI agent.
An MCP server exposes capabilities (like reading files, querying databases, or calling APIs) that AI agents can discover and use. VaultPlane helps you find, evaluate, and manage these servers.
Quick Start
1. Browse the Registry
Start by exploring the MCP Server Registry. You can search by name, filter by category, and sort by popularity or GitHub stars.
2. Evaluate a Server
Each server page shows its capabilities, required permissions (with risk levels), platform compatibility, and a trust score. Use these signals to decide if a server is right for your use case.
3. Install and Configure
Most MCP servers can be installed with a single command. Each server page includes the install command and a ready-to-paste Claude Desktop configuration snippet.

Add the server to your AI agent's configuration. For Claude Desktop, add the JSON config to your claude_desktop_config.json file. For other platforms, check the server's compatibility matrix.
