+MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Apache Pulsar.
+
+Exposes three tools that allow AI agents (Cursor, Claude Desktop, etc.)
+to produce, consume, and inspect Pulsar topics via natural language.
+
+Prerequisites:
+    pip install "mcp[cli]" pulsar-client
+
+Usage:
+    PULSAR_BROKER_URL=pulsar://localhost:6650 python3 examples/mcp_server.py
+
+Configure in Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json) or Claude Desktop:
