mcp_multi_cloud 0.1.0

MCP Server to interact with multiple clouds based on Anthropic's Model Context Protocol

mcp-cloud

Model Context Protocol Server for Public Cloud environments like AWS, Azure, and more. mcp-cloud is a Python MCP server that:

• Connects to public cloud services to access resources like S3 Buckets and Azure Blobs
• Provides tools for performing CRUD operations on cloud resources
• Enables AI models to interact with cloud infrastructure securely

Installation

You can install mcp-cloud using pip:

pip install mcp-cloud

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mcp_multi_cloud.git
cd mcp-cloud
pip install -e .

Quick Start

1. Set up your environment variables (see Configuration section below)

2. Start the MCP server:

   python -m mcp_cloud.main
   

   or using uv:

Loading Environment Variables

Unix/Linux/MacOS

Windows

PowerShell:

Get-Content .env | ForEach-Object {
    if ($_ -match '^([^=]+)=(.*)$') {
        $name = $matches[1]
        $value = $matches[2]
        Set-Item -Path "Env:$name" -Value $value
    }
}

Usage

Basic Usage

1. Start the MCP server:

   python -m mcp_cloud.main
   

2. Verify the server is running:

   mcp inspect info --url http://localhost:7008
   

Integration with Claude Desktop

Add the following configuration to your Claude Desktop settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-cloud": {
      "command": "path/to/uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "path/to/mcp_multi_cloud/src",
        "run",
        "--with",
        "mcp",
        "mcp",
        "run",
        "main.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLOUD_PROVIDER": "aws",
        "CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY": "your_access_key",
        "CLOUD_SECRET_KEY": "your_secret_key",
        "CLOUD_REGION": "us-east-1"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Features

Cloud Storage Operations

• Create/delete buckets/containers
• Upload files
• Download files
• List files in a bucket/container

Testing

Running Tests

1. Unit Tests:

   python -m unittest test_mcp_server.py
   

2. Integration Tests:

   # Terminal 1: Start the server
   python -m mcp_cloud.main
   
   # Terminal 2: Run integration tests
   mcp inspect test --url http://localhost:7008
   

For detailed testing instructions, see TESTING.md.

Security Considerations

1. Never commit your .env file or expose your cloud credentials
2. Use IAM roles and minimal permissions when possible
3. Regularly rotate your access keys
4. Monitor your cloud resources for unexpected usage

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Connection refused:

   • Ensure the server is running
   • Check if the port 7008 is available
   • Verify firewall settings

2. Authentication failures:

   • Verify your cloud credentials are correct
   • Ensure environment variables are properly set
   • Check if your access keys are active

3. Permission denied:

   • Verify IAM roles and permissions
   • Check resource-specific access policies

mcp-cloud

Model Context Protocol Server for Public Cloud mcp-cloud is designed to run a MCP Server for Public Cloud like AWS, Azure etc.

Mode Context Protocol

MCP Protocol for GenAI agents has been created by Anthropic. MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications. MCP provides a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools. Refer Anthopic's MCP Protocol Introduction. Refer to the MCP Quickstart Guide for Users to learn how to use MCP

Concepts

MCP servers can provide three main types of capabilities: Resources: File-like data that can be read by clients (like API responses or file contents) Tools: Functions that can be called by the LLM (with user approval) Prompts: Pre-written templates that help users accomplish specific tasks

Initial version of MCP Server will focus on resources available of Public Clouds e.g S3 Buckets, Azure for now.

MCP Primitives The MCP protocol defines three core primitives that servers can implement:

Primitive Control Description Example Use Prompts User-controlled Interactive templates invoked by user choice Slash commands, menu options Resources Application-controlled Contextual data managed by the client application File contents, API responses Tools Model-controlled Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions API calls, data updates

Running MCP Server

python src/main.py

or

uv run --with mcp mcp run main.py

Using mcp commands & mcp inspector

mcp install main.py 
mcp dev main.py

Steps to Install

TODO: Update

Steps to Use

TODO:

Environment Setup

To set up your cloud storage credentials, you can use the provided environment setup script:

python src/set_env.py

This will:

1. Prompt you for your cloud provider credentials
2. Create a .env file with your settings
3. Verify that the environment variables are set correctly

The script will ask for:

• Cloud Provider (aws/azure/google)
• Access Key
• Secret Key
• Region (defaults to us-east-1)

Alternatively, you can manually create a .env file with the following variables:

CLOUD_PROVIDER=your_provider
CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY=your_access_key
CLOUD_SECRET_KEY=your_secret_key
CLOUD_REGION=your_region

Loading Environment Variables in System

Unix/Linux/MacOS

Using source command:

source .env

Or using export command:

export $(cat .env | xargs)

Windows

Command Prompt:

for /f "tokens=*" %a in (.env) do set %a

PowerShell:

Get-Content .env | ForEach-Object {
    if ($_ -match '^([^=]+)=(.*)$') {
        $name = $matches[1]
        $value = $matches[2]
        Set-Item -Path "Env:$name" -Value $value
    }
}

Verifying Environment Variables

• Unix/Linux/MacOS: printenv | grep CLOUD_
• Windows: set | findstr CLOUD_

Important Notes

1. The .env file should be in your project root directory
2. Each variable should be on a new line
3. No spaces around the = sign
4. No quotes around values unless they're part of the value

Example .env file format:

CLOUD_PROVIDER=aws
CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY=your_access_key
CLOUD_SECRET_KEY=your_secret_key
CLOUD_REGION=us-east-1

Testing

The MCP Cloud Server includes comprehensive testing options to ensure everything is working correctly.

Quick Start Testing

# Run unit tests
python src/test_mcp_server.py

# Test with MCP Inspect
python src/main.py  # In one terminal
mcp-inspect info --url http://localhost:7008  # In another terminal

For detailed testing instructions, including how to test with Claude Desktop, see TESTING.md.
