Prisma Cloud Docs MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides search access to Prisma Cloud documentation. This server allows Claude and other MCP-compatible clients to search through Prisma Cloud's official documentation and API references.

Note: This server has been migrated to HTTP transport and container deployment for improved scalability and performance. The server now runs in HTTP mode when deployed via Smithery.

Features

• Search across Prisma Cloud documentation
• Search Prisma Cloud API documentation
• Caching system for improved performance
• Real-time indexing of documentation sites

Installation

Option 1: From PyPI (Recommended)

No installation needed! Just use uvx in your Claude Desktop configuration.

Installing via Smithery

To install prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @clarkemn/prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server --client claude

Option 2: Development Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.12 or higher
• uv package manager

Install uv

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Clone and Setup

git clone https://github.com/clarkemn/prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server.git
cd prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server
uv sync

Usage

With Claude Desktop

Add this server to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

Location: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS)

Option 1: Direct from PyPI (Recommended)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Prisma Cloud Docs": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {},
      "transport": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

Option 2: Local Development

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Prisma Cloud Docs": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["run", "python", "server.py"],
      "cwd": "/path/to/prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server",
      "env": {},
      "transport": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

Replace /path/to/prisma-cloud-docs-mcp-server with the actual path to where you cloned this repository.

Manual Testing

You can test the server manually:

echo '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "initialize", "params": {"protocolVersion": "2024-11-05", "capabilities": {}, "clientInfo": {"name": "test", "version": "1.0"}}}' | uv run python server.py

Available Tools

The server provides these MCP tools:

• index_prisma_docs(max_pages: int = 50) - Index Prisma Cloud documentation (call this first)
• index_prisma_api_docs(max_pages: int = 50) - Index Prisma Cloud API documentation
• search_prisma_docs(query: str) - Search Prisma Cloud documentation
• search_prisma_api_docs(query: str) - Search Prisma Cloud API documentation
• search_all_docs(query: str) - Search across all indexed documentation
• get_index_status() - Check indexing status and cache statistics
