Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Bruno MCP Studio Tools (16)
create_collection
New collection. `format: "yaml"` (default) or `"bru"`. Also registers it in the workspace, so `list_collections` and the Bruno app can see it — `registerInWorkspace: false` to skip that, `workspacePath` to pick the file
list_collections
Find collections from Bruno's `workspace.yml
get_collection_stats
Counts by method, folders, environments, request list with URLs — filterable by `folder`, `method`, `nameContains`, or `includeRequests: false` for counts only
write_request
Write a request: method, url, headers, query, body, auth, scripts, settings. `kind: "websocket"` or `kind: "grpc"` for those transports. Pass `collectionPath` and `name` to create one, `filePath` to edit one — an edit is a partial merge, and `filename` renames the file
move_request
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
