Encore MCP Server
Encore ships a built-in Model Context Protocol server (`encore mcp start` for SSE, `encore mcp run` for stdio) that exposes the live Encore application — services, middleware, auth handlers, databases, Pub/Sub topics, cron jobs, buckets, traces, metrics, source files, and documentation — to AI agents like Cursor and Claude Code. This lets agents reason about and modify a running backend with full context, including verifying that a newly added publish call shows up in traces.
