Microsoft Fabric MCP Server

A local-first Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI agents with comprehensive access to Microsoft Fabric's public APIs, item definitions, and best practices. The Fabric MCP Server packages complete OpenAPI specifications into a single context layer for AI-assisted development - without connecting to live Fabric environments. Its 40 documented tools cover onelake, shortcut, docs, table.

People who work with onelake, shortcut and docs and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in C#.
