Engineering Matrix Explorer

An MCP server that gives Claude (or any MCP-compatible AI) instant access to a curated matrix of 100+ engineering tools — search by name, tag, or use case, browse by category, and pull ready-to-use boilerplate files for 30+ popular stacks.

Free: search + 5 boilerplates (TypeScript, Python, React, Docker, Node.js)  |  Pro $15: all 33 boilerplates unlocked  |  Bundle $29: 3 MCP servers

What it does

Three tools, zero configuration:

search_engineering_matrix — find tools by name, tag, or use case. Multi-word queries work great.

"python linter"   → Ruff, ESLint
"ci cd"           → GitHub Actions
"database sql"    → PostgreSQL, Prisma, Supabase
"container"       → Docker, Kubernetes

list_categories — browse all 6 categories with tool counts: languages, frontend, backend, databases, devops, tooling.

get_repository_boilerplate — get starter files for a tool in one shot. Supports: TypeScript, Python, Node.js, React, Next.js, FastAPI, Docker, GitHub Actions, Rust, Go.

Install

npx @engineeringmatrixexplorer/engineering-matrix-explorer

Or install globally:

npm install -g @engineeringmatrixexplorer/engineering-matrix-explorer

Add to Claude Desktop

Open your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS) and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "engineering-matrix-explorer": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@engineeringmatrixexplorer/engineering-matrix-explorer"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. You'll see the tools appear automatically.

Add to Claude Code

claude mcp add engineering-matrix-explorer -- npx -y @engineeringmatrixexplorer/engineering-matrix-explorer

Example prompts

Once connected, try asking Claude:

• "What TypeScript linting tools are available?"
• "Give me a Docker boilerplate for my new project"
• "What's in the devops category?"
• "Find me a fast Python web framework"
• "Set up a GitHub Actions CI config for my repo"

Hire me

I build custom MCP servers for companies and dev teams — internal tool search, docs integrations, API connectors, anything you want Claude to do that it can't do out of the box.
