imbi-mcp 2.8.0

Imbi MCP server

imbi-mcp

MCP server for the Imbi DevOps service management platform. Exposes Imbi API functionality to AI agents via the Model Context Protocol.

How It Works

At startup the server fetches the OpenAPI spec from a running imbi-api instance and auto-generates MCP tools, resources, and resource templates using FastMCP.

Route mapping rules control what gets exposed:

• Excluded -- Auth, MFA, status, and thumbnail endpoints are hidden.
• Resources -- GET endpoints that return collections.
• Resource templates -- GET endpoints with path parameters.
• Tools -- Everything else (create, update, delete operations).

The caller's Authorization header is forwarded to the API so that requests run with the caller's permissions.

Authentication

Two modes, which can be used together:

• Token (always on). The caller's Authorization header — an Imbi ik_ API key or a JWT — is forwarded to the API, which authorizes the request. This works with no extra configuration.
• OAuth (when configured). Set --public-url and --auth-server-url (see below) to make the server an OAuth 2.0 Resource Server. It then verifies JWT access tokens locally, accepts-and-forwards ik_ API keys, and publishes Protected Resource Metadata so MCP clients can discover the Imbi authorization server and run a browser login flow (authorization-code + PKCE, with Dynamic Client Registration). Local JWT verification uses the shared IMBI_AUTH_JWT_SECRET.

Requirements

• Python 3.12+
• A running imbi-api instance

Quick Start

# Install dependencies
just setup

# Run the server (imbi-api must be reachable)
just serve

# Or with explicit options
imbi-mcp serve --api-url http://localhost:8000 --transport streamable-http

CLI Options

imbi-mcp serve [OPTIONS]

Option	Default	Env Var	Description
--api-url	http://localhost:8000	IMBI_INTERNAL_API_URL	Base URL of the Imbi API
--transport	streamable-http		MCP transport type
--host	127.0.0.1		Host to bind to
--port	8001		Port to bind to
--public-url	(none)	IMBI_MCP_PUBLIC_URL	Public URL of this server (e.g. https://host/mcp); enables OAuth with --auth-server-url
--auth-server-url	(none)	IMBI_MCP_AUTH_SERVER_URL	Imbi OAuth issuer URL (e.g. https://host); enables OAuth with --public-url

Supported transports: stdio, http, sse, streamable-http

Docker

docker build -t imbi-mcp .
docker run -p 8001:8001 -e IMBI_INTERNAL_API_URL=http://imbi-api:8000 imbi-mcp
