IT Glue (mspstack) MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the IT Glue API, built for MSPs that want AI assistants to read - and safely write - their documentation. Its 7 documented tools cover itglue, attachment. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting documentation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install IT Glue (mspstack)

Set MCP_TOKENS_VIEWER, MCP_TOKENS_EDITOR, MCP_TOKENS_ADMIN before connecting. ITGLUE_API_KEY is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add mspstack-mcp-itglue -- npx -y mcp-itglue

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mspstack-mcp-itglue": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-itglue"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

repo age created 2026-07-03 - young repo, little track record yet

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package mcp-itglue - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing

registry namespace io.github.mspstack is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What IT Glue (mspstack) can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

An agent gets 7 documented tools spanning itglue, attachment, including itglue_list_document_folders, itglue_list_attachments, itglue_create_attachment, itglue_build_vector_index.

The 7 tools it gives your agent

Extracted from the project's README - what IT Glue lets an agent do.

itglue_list_document_folders: - read
itglue_list_attachments: - read
itglue_create_attachment: - write
itglue_build_vector_index: - write
itglue_delete_documents: - destructive
itglue_delete_flexible_asset: - destructive
itglue_delete_attachment: - destructive

Limitations (from the README)

- IT Glue rate limit: 3000 requests / 5 minutes per key. - The IT Glue documents API is only partially documented; document/section endpoints follow observed API behavior. - Flexible-asset trait updates replace the whole traits object - the update tool's description warns the model to send all traits back. - List tools return summary fields per item (in both text and structuredContent) so default page sizes stay with
