## Description

This EMQX plugin provides MCP tools for health checking and problem analysis of EMQX MQTT broker clusters, offering API wrappers for cluster status monitoring, connector management, authentication and authorization source inspection, plus network connectivity testing tools. Built in Erlang by Shawn at EMQ Technologies, it integrates directly with EMQX's internal APIs to expose cluster node information, authenticator/authorization source configurations and statuses, built-in database authorization rules, and TCP connectivity checks across all cluster nodes. The implementation uses the mcp-mqtt-erl library to serve tools over MQTT transport, making it valuable for DevOps teams managing EMQX deployments who need AI-assisted troubleshooting and monitoring capabilities for distributed MQTT infrastructure.
