Official CLI (bru) for the open-source API client Bruno: runs collections stored as plain text in your repo, switches environments, outputs JSON results and imports collections from OpenAPI, making API tests easy to run in CI.

Command-line tool for transferring data by URL over 20+ protocols including HTTP(S), FTP, SFTP, WebSocket and MQTT; a staple for agents calling APIs and downloading files. Preinstalled on macOS and most Linux distributions.

Define and run chains of HTTP requests in plain text files, capture variables and assert on status codes, headers and JSONPath or XPath results, for both fetching data and API testing in CI. Open source from Orange.

curl for gRPC: call any gRPC method with JSON, including bidirectional streaming, browse service definitions via server reflection, proto source files or protosets, with TLS and mutual TLS support.

The official MCP debugging tool: connect to any MCP server through a web UI, CLI or terminal UI to list and call its tools, resources and prompts. CLI mode outputs JSON, suited to scripts and CI smoke tests.

HTTP client CLI that reimplements HTTPie's syntax in Rust with a focus on performance; key-value pairs on the command line are sent as JSON by default, making it quick to debug REST APIs.

Community Playwright browser automation MCP from ExecuteAutomation (not Microsoft's official one): navigate, click, fill forms, screenshot and scrape page text, plus send HTTP requests, assert network responses and record actions into test code, with 143 device emulations built in.

CLI and TypeScript runtime for discovering and calling MCP servers from the terminal and scripts: list tool signatures and call tools directly, or generate a standalone CLI or typed client from a server. Auto-imports existing MCP configs from Claude Code, Codex and others.

Postman's official MCP server: lets agents manage workspaces, collections, environments and API specs, help with API testing and generate client code from API definitions. The remote version uses OAuth; the local version needs a Postman API key.

Postman's official plugin: sets up the Postman MCP server so Claude Code can sync collections, run API tests and diagnose failures, generate client code, create mocks and docs, and run OWASP API security checks. Needs a Postman account.
