What is Authentik MCP Server?
A collection of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for integrating with the Authentik identity platform. Available in both Python and Node.js implementations, it offers full-featured servers with CRUD capabilities and diagnostic-only servers for read‑only monitoring. Designed for administrators and developers who need programmatic control or observability over their Authentik instance.
How to use Authentik MCP Server?
Install the desired package (e.g., authentik-mcp or authentik-diag-mcp), then configure your MCP‑compatible tool (such as VS Code or Claude Desktop) to point to the server binary and provide the Authentik API token and base URL as arguments. Do not run the servers directly via CLI; let the MCP tool manage their lifecycle. Example configuration snippets using uvx (Python) and npx (Node.js) are provided in the README.
