OBDiag MCP Server - Model Context Protocol server for OceanBase Diagnostic Tool

OBDiag MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables secure interaction with OBDiag (OceanBase Diagnostic Tool).

English | 简体中文

Overview

The OBDiag MCP Server provides a standardized interface for AI assistants to interact with OceanBase diagnostic tools through the Model Context Protocol. It allows you to perform cluster diagnostics, log analysis, and system health checks programmatically.

Features

• Cluster Inspection: Perform comprehensive cluster health checks and generate inspection reports
• Log Analysis: Analyze cluster logs to identify error messages and performance issues
• Scene-based Diagnostics: Execute specific diagnostic scenarios with customizable parameters
• Multiple Transport Protocols: Support for stdio, SSE, and streamable-http transport modes
• Easy Integration: Simple setup and configuration for MCP-compatible clients

Prerequisites

Before using the OBDiag MCP Server, ensure that:

1. Python 3.11+: The server requires Python 3.11 or higher
2. OBDiag is installed: The server requires OBDiag to be installed and accessible via the obdiag command
3. Configuration file exists: The OBDiag configuration file should be present at ~/.obdiag/config.yml

Installation

From Source

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/oceanbase/mcp-oceanbase.git
cd mcp-oceanbase

2. Navigate to the obdiag MCP server directory:

cd src/obdiag_mcp_server

3. Install the package:

pip install -e .

Using pip

pip install obdiag-mcp

Usage

Command Line

The server can be started with different transport protocols:

# stdio mode (for direct integration)
obdiag-mcp stdio

# SSE mode (default port 8000)
obdiag-mcp sse

# SSE mode with custom port
obdiag-mcp sse 8001

# streamable-http mode (default port 8000)
obdiag-mcp streamable-http

# streamable-http mode with custom port
obdiag-mcp streamable-http 8001

MCP Client Configuration

To use with an MCP client (like Claude Desktop), configure your client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "obdiag": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

The OBDiag MCP Server provides the following diagnostic tools:

obdiag_check_run

Performs cluster inspection and returns inspection reports.

Usage: No parameters required Returns: Cluster inspection report

obdiag_analyze_log

Analyzes cluster logs to identify error messages and performance issues.

Usage: No parameters required Returns: Log analysis results

obdiag_display_list

Queries available diagnostic commands and returns the list of supported commands.

Usage: No parameters required Returns: List of available diagnostic scenes

obdiag_display_run

Executes specific diagnostic commands with optional environment variables.

Parameters:

• scene (string): The diagnostic scene name from obdiag_display_list results
• env_dict (dict, optional): Environment variables for the diagnostic command

Returns: Diagnostic results for the specified scene

# Run tests
pytest

Building

# Build the package
python -m build

# Install from built package
pip install dist/obdiag_mcp-*.whl

Configuration

The server automatically checks for OBDiag configuration at ~/.obdiag/config.yml. Ensure this file exists and contains valid OBDiag configuration.

Example configuration structure:

# ~/.obdiag/config.yml
obdiag:
  basic:
    config_path: ~/.obdiag/config.yml
    log_path: ~/.obdiag/log
  cluster:
    # Your cluster configuration here

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. "obdiag is not installed"

   • Ensure OBDiag is installed and accessible via the obdiag command
   • Check your PATH environment variable

2. "obdiag config is not exist"

   • Create the configuration file at ~/.obdiag/config.yml
   • Ensure the file contains valid YAML configuration

3. Connection refused errors

   • Check if the specified port is available
   • Ensure firewall settings allow the connection

Logs

The server outputs diagnostic information to stdout. For detailed OBDiag logs, check the ~/.obdiag/log directory.
