Quick Start

You: "Check my setup"
You: "Install kubectl"
You: "Connect me to staging-int"
You: "What's the Cube status?"
You: "List available apps"
You: "Proxy mosquitto-dev so I can connect locally"
You: "Build and publish my app"
You: "Create a new environment called my-test"
You: "Replicate pep-onlogicmc610-6 into a new env called pep-clone"
You: "List my Apollo environments"
You: "Show entity health for staging-int"
You: "Why did the dozzle install fail on pep-4?"
You: "Show plan details for redpanda-connect-20 on pep-4"

Credentials

Teleport

Login is guided - the tool will show you the commands to run:

• Okta SSO: tsh login --proxy=edgescaleai.teleport.sh --auth=okta
• Username/Password: tsh login --proxy=edgescaleai.teleport.sh --user=<username>

Apollo

Either method works — the MCP server checks both:

Option 1: apollo-cli configure (recommended)

apollo-cli configure

This stores credentials in your apollo-cli profile. The MCP server reads them automatically.

Option 2: Environment variables

export APOLLO_CLIENT="<your-client-id>"
export APOLLO_SECRET="<your-client-secret>"

Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc and restart your terminal.

Local Development

First-time setup

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/EdgescaleAI/cube-mcp.git
cd cube-mcp

# Create virtual environment and install
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .

# Add to Claude Code (use full path to venv python)
claude mcp add cube-local -- $(pwd)/.venv/bin/python -m cube_mcp.server

Reload after code changes

In Claude Code, run:

/mcp

This reloads all MCP servers and picks up your latest code changes.

Run server directly (for debugging)

source .venv/bin/activate
python -m cube_mcp.server
