DevOps MCP

devops-mcp is an open source Model Context Protocol server that gives AI agents (Claude, etc.) real-time read and write access to your infrastructure stack - all from a single install. Its 40 documented tools cover k8s, prom, argo, resource. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

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

01 · Install DevOps MCP

before you install - you'll need

Set ARGOCD_SERVER, ARGOCD_TOKEN, PROMETHEUS_URL, PAGERDUTY_TOKEN, LOKI_URL, LOKI_TOKEN, MCP_HTTP_HOST, MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS before connecting. K8S_CONTEXT, K8S_ALLOWED_NAMESPACES, MCP_AUTH_TOKEN, MCP_REQUEST_STATE_SECRET are optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add notharshhaa-devops-mcp -- npx -y @notharshhaa/devops-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "notharshhaa-devops-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@notharshhaa/devops-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

03 · What DevOps MCP can do

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

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can list pods with status, restarts, node, age, compare current resource state vs last-applied-configuration, trigger rolling restart of a deployment or statefulset, and delete a named resource - requires direct or interactive confirmation.

What can DevOps MCP do?

How do I install DevOps MCP?

Run `npx -y @notharshhaa/devops-mcp`. The README documents 12 environment variables (ARGOCD_SERVER, ARGOCD_TOKEN, PROMETHEUS_URL…) to set first. Set ARGOCD_SERVER, ARGOCD_TOKEN, PROMETHEUS_URL, PAGERDUTY_TOKEN, LOKI_URL, LOKI_TOKEN, MCP_HTTP_HOST, MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS before connecting. K8S_CONTEXT, K8S_ALLOWED_NAMESPACES, MCP_AUTH_TOKEN, MCP_REQUEST_STATE_SECRET are optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does DevOps MCP run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
