Use Cases / Coding Assistants & IDEs

Give every engineer the full power of AI — without shadow MCP.

Connect Claude Code, Cursor, and other IDEs to your production stack through one governed MCP layer. Share skills across the team, eliminate ad hoc setups, and let every engineer run at full productivity.

Key Capabilities
  • Verified MCP server library
  • Custom MCP servers (cloud, desktop, on-prem)
  • Support for internal developer tools and third-party SaaS
  • Centralized configuration endpoint

Replace shadow MCP with governed engineering access.

Individual engineers are already wiring Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf to production systems through personal MCP configs.

Natoma replaces those ad hoc setups with a single governed layer — no per-engineer configuration, no unmanaged production connections, no security freeze.

Key Capabilities
  • Verified MCP server library
  • Custom MCP servers (cloud, desktop, on-prem)
  • Support for internal developer tools and third-party SaaS
  • Centralized configuration endpoint

Connect IDEs to the systems engineers actually use.

Engineers query production schemas, read CloudWatch logs, triage Jira tickets, and inspect GitHub PRs without leaving the IDE.

Natoma routes every connection — databases, cloud logging, CI/CD, wikis, ticketing — through one managed endpoint with role-scoped access.

Key Capabilities
  • Databases (MongoDB, PostgreSQL, internal DBs) with read-only defaults
  • Cloud logging (CloudWatch, GCP Logging, Azure Monitor)
  • Source and issue tracking (GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Linear)
  • Documentation and wikis (Confluence, Notion)

Share skills across the team — not just the power users.

Profiles bundle approved MCP servers, prompts, and skills into role-based toolkits so every engineer starts with the same capabilities as the team's most effective AI users.

Close the productivity gap between the handful of engineers who self-configured and the rest of the org.

Key Capabilities
  • Role-based Profiles for engineering teams
  • Shared skills and prompt libraries
  • Dynamic tool search to reduce token spend
  • Controlled pilot -> team -> org-wide expansion

Govern every IDE tool call without slowing engineers down.

Every request from Claude Code, Cursor, or another IDE is authorized at runtime against the engineer's exact permissions in the target system.

Security gets full auditability; engineers keep shipping.

Key Capabilities
  • Identity-aware access controls
  • Attribute-based authorization (Cedar)
  • Centralized activity logs and audit trail
  • Integration with CrowdStrike, EDR, and MDM systems

Frequently-Asked Questions

Which IDEs and coding assistants does Natoma support?
Natoma works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with MCP-enabled extensions, and any other client that speaks the Model Context Protocol. One managed endpoint covers every supported IDE.
How does Natoma stop shadow MCP in engineering teams?
By providing a verified MCP library and role-based Profiles that are easier for engineers to adopt than a personal setup. Every approved connection routes through Natoma, so there is no incentive — or permission — to wire ad hoc servers to production.
Can engineers still write and use custom MCP servers?
Yes. Teams can publish custom MCP servers through Natoma's registry, subject to review and policy. Engineers get flexibility; security gets governance and auditability.
How does Natoma reduce token usage in the IDE?
Dynamic tool search surfaces only the MCP servers and tools relevant to the engineer's current task, so the context window stays focused and token spend stays controlled — without giving up policy enforcement.

Engineering AI, governed end to end.

Natoma turns coding assistants and IDEs into a governed engineering platform — full production context for every engineer, full visibility for every security review, no shadow MCP in between.
