Firebase MCP enables AI assistants to work directly with Firebase services, including Firestore document operations, Storage file management with upload capabilities, and Authentication user management and verification. It works with MCP client applications such as Claude Desktop, Augment Code, VS Code, and Cursor.
Add the server configuration to your MCP client’s settings file (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json). Provide the required environment variable SERVICE_ACCOUNT_KEY_PATH pointing to your Firebase service account key JSON, and optionally set FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET. The server can be run via npx (recommended) or from a local installation, and supports both stdio and HTTP transports.

Yes. It may show a Zod validation error in client logs, but the query still works correctly; this is a log-level bug in the MCP SDK that does not affect functionality.
Verify your bucket name in the Firebase Console and set the correct value in the `FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET` environment variable.
Follow the URL provided in the error message to create the required composite index in the Firebase Console, then retry the query after the index is ready.
Set `DEBUG_LOG_FILE=true` in the environment to log to `~/.firebase-mcp/debug.log`, or specify a custom path for file logging. You can also use the MCP Inspector for interactive debugging.
