Needle: MCP server, CLI and agent surfaces
Not verified. A source lists an MCP endpoint for Needle (mcp.needle-ai.com), but it did not answer a handshake on 4 November 2026, so it is not counted. The connector recorded: ENOTFOUND. The row is kept so the claim is visible and can be re-checked next edition.

The sign-in route, step by step
- Request
https://mcp.needle-ai.com/mcp. The connector could not tell what it wants: ENOTFOUND. - Check the vendor's docs for the sign-in route before wiring a client.
See OAuth for MCP: client ID metadata documents and dynamic registration for how each route works.
CLI
No CLI is on record for Needle. The directory checks a package only where a source names one, so this is a floor: a company can ship a command line that no source read for this edition mentions. See shipping a CLI agents can use.
