Connections: live MQTT clients with trace evidence

Connections keeps broker tabs, clients, subscriptions, sends, trace rows, resend, and scheduled messages together.

/ is a product surface in Mqttable. It exists because MQTT debugging needs a place for this job, not because every task should start from MCP. This page focuses on the product workflow. MCP support is a companion layer: use it when automation helps, not as the starting point for every task.

Human job

  • Create broker tabs and connection sets.
  • Connect clients, subscribe, publish, inspect TraceGrid, and resend suspicious packets.
  • Keep scheduled messages separate from one-off sends.

Automation handoff

  • MCP and CLI are supporting surfaces here, not the whole story.
  • Use MCP reads when the same state needs to be inspected by an agent.
  • If an action changes MQTT state, use schema, plan, confirmation, apply, and verify.

Boundary

Keep this surface focused. If the job belongs to another workflow, move there instead of turning one page into everything.
