agent-bom-discover — AI Agent & MCP Server Discovery

Discovers AI agents, MCP servers, and their configurations across 22+ AI tools on this machine. Shows what's installed, configured, and registered in the bundled 427+ MCP server registry.

Install

pipx install agent-bom
agent-bom agents             # discover all AI agents and MCP servers

agent-bom where              # show all discovery paths

When to Use

  • "find agents" / "what agents are configured"
  • "what MCP servers do I have"
  • "what's configured on this machine"

  • "doctor" / "check my setup"
  • "show me what's installed"

Commands

# Discover all AI agents and MCP servers

# List MCP server inventory
agent-bom mcp inventory

# Show all discovery paths
agent-bom where

Examples

Example output:

Discovered 3 MCP clients:
  Claude Desktop  — 4 servers configured

Guardrails

  • Discovery is read-only — no files are modified, no packages installed.
  • Env var values in config files are always replaced with ***REDACTED*** before processing.
  • Only structural data (server names, commands, URLs) is extracted.
  • Confirm with user before scanning paths outside the home directory.
