StaffHey Amgad,
Welcome to the community!
I come bearing good news :)
1. We recently introduced an official SmartBear ReadyAPI MCP Server! You can see the updated documentation here
You can read the launch blog here
2. Currently the ReadyAPI MCP server is started by ReadyAPI, whereas the SmartBear MCP server would be manually started on your machine via your configured tool of choice. We are looking into how they may more closely integrate, but you'll be able to connect to both the ReadyAPI MCP server, and the SmartBear MCP server, to be able to have access to the wider context of all your available SmartBear tooling
3. We have seen users augment the xml test suites directly with LLM's, however the ReadyAPI mcp server has access to RAPI under the hood which provides improvements over using a third-party MCP
I would also recommend joining our user experience survey, where you can speak to the team, share your thoughts, they will be invaluable in shaping ReadyAPI + MCP for the use cases that our users want to see.
With regards to roadmap information, I would recommend viewing our recent "Inside the SmartBear Roadmap, Volume 2" webinar where we cover what is new and upcoming in ReadyAPI and more!
Thanks,
Saf
