Provide practical guidance for discovering available MCP tools, understanding their schemas, and executing them using mcp-manager. Use when user says "how do I use mcp-manager", "what MCP tools are available", "explain mcp-manager workflow", "how do I discover tools", or needs help with MCP tool discovery and execution. Do NOT use for actual tool execution (call the MCP manager tool directly), implementing new MCP servers, or discovering non-MCP tools.

## Description
The **mcp-manager** is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) manager that allows access to tools from different servers. Here is the practical guide:
## **Discover Available Tools**
```bash
# List all MCP servers
mcp_mcp-manager_list_servers
# Search for tools by keyword
mcp_mcp-manager_search_tools
query: "your search term"
max_results: 10
# Get tools from a specific server
mcp_mcp-manager_get_tools_by_server
server: "taskmaster-ai" # or: exa, csv-editor, burp, etc.
```
## **Understand a Tool's Structure**
```bash
# View the complete schema (parameters, types, etc.)
mcp_mcp-manager_get_tool_schema
server: "taskmaster-ai"
tool_name: "get_tasks"
```
## **Execute a Tool**
```bash
# General syntax
mcp_mcp-manager_call_tool
server: "server-name"
tool_name: "tool-name"
arguments: { /* tool parameters */ }
```
## Available servers
- sequentialthinking
- taskmaster-ai
- my-mcp-server
- context7
- chrome-devtools
- exa
- next-devtools
- a11y
- playwright
- csv-editor
- html-to-markdown
- json-mcp-filter
- large-file
- burp
- gcloud
## π‘ **Typical Workflow**
1. **Discover** β `list_servers` β `get_tools_by_server`
2. **Understand** β `get_tool_schema`
3. **Execute** β `call_tool` with the correct arguments
4. **Interpret results** β use the tool output
