mistfs-mcp-server 0.0.5

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing integrated tools for Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) operations. Features include:

Microsoft TFS MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides secure access to Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS) repositories through authenticated PAT connections.

Features

• List all available TFS projects
• List all repositories in a TFS project using authenticated PAT connections
• Get detailed commit history with author filtering
• Built-in proxy support for enterprise environments
• Comprehensive error handling and logging
• Secure HTTPS communication with TFS REST API

Installation

pip install mistfs-mcp-server

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or higher
• mcp package version 1.2.0 or higher
• Access to Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server
• Valid TFS Personal Access Token (PAT) with appropriate permissions
• Environment variable TFS_PAT must be set with your TFS Personal Access Token
• Network access (with proxy support if needed)

Environment Setup

1. Set your TFS Personal Access Token:

set TFS_PAT=your_pat_token_here

2. (Optional) Configure proxy settings if required:

set HTTP_PROXY=http://your.proxy.server:port
set HTTPS_PROXY=http://your.proxy.server:port

3. Verify your setup by starting the server and checking the logs in mistfs_mcp_server.log

Usage

Starting the Server

# Run as a command
mistfs-mcp-server

# Or import in your Python code
from mistfs_tools.server import mcp
mcp.run()

Using with MCP Clients

This package implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing AI assistants and other MCP-compatible clients to interact with Team Foundation Server.

Example of how an MCP client might use this tool:

from mcp.client import Client

client = Client()

# Get all available TFS projects
projects = await client.Get_Projects()
print(projects)  # List of all project names in TFS

# Get repositories in a project
repos = await client.Get_Project_Repositories(project_name="MyProject")
print(repos)  # List of repository names in MyProject

# Get commit history for a specific user
commits = await client.Get_Repository_Checkins(
    project_name="MyProject",
    repository_name="MyRepo",
    userupn="[e-mail]"
)
print(commits)  # List of commits by the specified user with detailed information

The `server.py` contains the following key components:
- FastMCP server initialization
- Proxy configuration for enterprise environments
- Comprehensive logging setup
- Implementation of three main tools:
  - Get_Projects
  - Get_Project_Repositories
  - Get_Repository_Checkins

Error Handling

All tools implement comprehensive error handling for:

• Missing PAT authentication
• Network connectivity issues
• Invalid project or repository names
• API response errors
• Proxy-related issues

Errors are both logged to file (mistfs_mcp_server.log) and returned as meaningful error messages to the client.

Proxy Support

The server includes built-in proxy support for enterprise environments. Proxy settings can be configured through environment variables or the built-in proxy configuration in the code.
