Wireshark for MCP. A transparent proxy that shows every real tool call between your AI client and your MCP servers, live in your terminal. The problem The official MCP Inspector connects as its own client. It never sees the traffic between your client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code) and your server. A breakpoint in your own server only fires once a request arrives. It can't show you the call the real client never made, or made with arguments you didn't expect.
