Frequently asked questions

What is MCP?

MCP stands for Model Control Protocol, a core library used by the server for real-time communication and tool definitions.

What are the runtime dependencies?

Python 3.7+ along with the packages pyVmomi, PyYAML, uvicorn, and mcp-core.

How does authentication work?

All privileged operations require a Bearer token in the `Authorization` header using the API key set in the configuration file or environment variable.

What transport protocol does the server use?

The server communicates over Server‑Sent Events (SSE) via the `/sse/messages` endpoint.

Where do VM and monitoring data reside?

All data resides in the connected vCenter Server or ESXi host; the server does not persist data locally.
