    Picture this: You’re deep in flow, building an event-driven app, when reality hits. You need to hunt down existing events across your enterprise. You’re copying schemas from outdated docs and hoping they are accurate. You have a question about the event you want to consume but don’t know who to ask. Your code works, but will it pass governance? You have deadlines to hit. And somewhere, an architect is asking if you’re following best practices. All the while you are looking in multiple places using different tools.

    Sound familiar? What if all of that friction just… disappeared?

    We’re excited to announce the launch of Solace Event Portal MCP Server — a new way to connect AI coding assistants like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor directly to Solace Event Portal. This integration bridges the gap between AI-assisted coding and real-time event-driven architectures, making it faster and easier than ever for developers to build compliant, event-driven applications and integrations.

    Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an emerging standard that lets AI tools securely access external data sources. With Solace’s new Event Portal MCP Server, your AI coding assistant can now understand your Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) — including events, schemas, and governance rules — as deeply as your codebase.

    The Breakthrough: Your AI Coding Assistant Just Got Superpowers

    Here’s just a sample of what just became possible – right now, in your IDE, without switching tools:

    • Auto-generate Day 1 code for new apps from a central repository of EDA artefacts containing event & schema definitions and the architectural definition of your application
    • Auto-update Day 2 code for existing apps when schemas evolve or you need to produce/consume new events – from this same central EDA repository
    • Semantic search for existing events – Ask in plain English: ‘Find events related to order processing’
    • Guarantee accuracy – No more cut-paste errors or stale documentation because definitions were auto-imported
    • Support any language with any Solace client library – Java, Python, Go, JavaScript, whatever you code in

    The game-changer for you? You never leave your Claude Code, Cursor or other AI coding environment. Your AI coding assistant now speaks directly to Event Portal using MCP!

    Event Portal + MCP = AI-Powered EDA

    The magic happens when three things combine:

    • Solace Event Portal – Solace’s tool for designing, discovering, and governing event-driven architectures. It’s where your organization catalogs events, manages schemas, enforces best practices, and provides self-service access to event streams across environments. Think of it as the single source of truth for your entire event-driven ecosystem
    • AI coding assistants – the tools you already love: Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, etc.
    • Solace Event Portal MCP server – what we’ve just introduced – the NEW bridge that connects them. MCP servers let AI assistants connect to external data sources and tools – in this case live event and schema data within Event Portal

    How It Actually Works

    Here’s the technical magic behind the scenes to make this work for you:

    1. You install Event Portal MCP Server locally alongside your favorite AI coding assistant—say, Claude Code.
    2. Configure Claude Code to use the MCP server
    3. Point the MCP server to your Event Portal instance, and voila – you’re ready to go.

    What this gives you: Natural language interaction with Event Portal directly through your AI assistant. You can query Event Portal, update definitions, and generate code from Event Portal schemas—all without context switching. The MCP server handles the API integration, authentication, and data translation so your AI assistant understands your event driven architecture as deeply as it understands your codebase.

    In practice: Ask “Show me order-related events,” and your AI assistant searches Event Portal semantically. Say “Generate a consumer for the OrderCreated event,” and it pulls the exact schema, topic structure, and governance policies to generate production-ready code. It’s amazing!

    See it to believe it
    Every developer who sees this demo has the same reaction: “This feels like magic.”

    What you just witnessed is the fusion of AI coding with enterprise-grade event management. This isn’t a prototype or a proof-of-concept. It’s shipping today.

    Why This Changes Everything

    We’re witnessing the birth of Spec-Driven Development – where developers focus their talent on defining what applications should do, while AI handles the heavy lifting of how to implement it.  And that is what this combination of Event Portal, MCP and AI coding unlocks.

    This isn’t about replacing developers. It’s about amplifying what makes you irreplaceable: your problem-solving skills, your architectural thinking, your business understanding. It’s a rare win-win-win!

    • Your organization wins because governance and best practices are baked in automatically.
    • Middleware teams win because runtime governance happens without getting in anyone’s way.
    • You win because the tedious stuff disappears, leaving more time for the work that matters.

    The New Era Starts Now

    A new age of developer efficiency and convenience has arrived – one where you use AI to code, find the EDA artifacts you need, and update documentation – all without leaving your IDE.

    Try Solace Event Portal MCP Server today and experience what happens when AI coding meets enterprise-grade event management.

    Key Takeaways

    • Solace Event Portal MCP Server connects AI coding assistants like Claude Code or GitHub Copilot directly to your EDA assets — so AI can now understand your architecture.
    • Faster, more accurate EDA development with automated code generation and schema updates driven by real-time event data.
    • Governance built-in — every app your AI helps create aligns with enterprise policies and architecture standards by design.
