Add NCP to Related Tools - Complementary MCP Orchestrator

Summary

Adding NCP as a related/complementary tool that works alongside plugged.in to provide comprehensive MCP ecosystem management.

How NCP Complements plugged.in

While plugged.in focuses on comprehensive web-based management, RAG integration, and document exchange capabilities, NCP solves the token overhead problem that affects all multi-MCP setups. Users can benefit from both tools:

• plugged.in: Web-based management UI, RAG v2 capabilities, AI document exchange, multi-workspace support, interactive playground
• NCP: 94.8% token reduction + O(1) complexity scaling for enterprise performance optimization

Repository Details

• GitHub: https://github.com/portel-dev/ncp
• Research: arXiv publication with production validation
• Installation: npm install -g @portel/ncp

Perfect for users who need both comprehensive management features and high-performance optimization.

Technical Synergy

The two tools complement each other perfectly:

• Use plugged.in for setup, configuration, testing, and document management
• Use NCP in production for optimal performance and token efficiency
• Both tools can run simultaneously in different environments or use cases

Positioning

This addition creates a "Related Tools" subsection under "Related Resources" to help users discover complementary solutions in the MCP ecosystem. The positioning is collaborative rather than competitive, highlighting how both tools serve different but compatible needs.
