Overview
What is CloudScope MCP?
CloudScope MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants read-only access to Azure and GCP cost data. It is designed for cloud users and FinOps practitioners who want to ask natural language questions about their cloud bills.
How to use CloudScope MCP?
Install by adding the server to your MCP configuration using npx -y cloudscope-mcp. Azure authentication is auto-detected from az login; GCP requires setting up BigQuery billing export and providing the GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT and GCP_BILLING_TABLE environment variables.

FAQ from CloudScope MCP
Does CloudScope MCP modify my cloud resources?
No. CloudScope MCP is read-only and cannot create, modify, or delete any cloud resources.
Do I need a service principal for Azure?
No. A local az login session works; service principals are optional for CI/CD environments.
Does the Azure Cost Management API cost money?
No. The Azure Cost Management API is free to use.
Do GCP BigQuery cost queries incur charges?
Yes, but typically less than $0.01 per query ($6.25 per TiB scanned, first 1 TiB/month free).
Can I use both Azure and GCP with CloudScope MCP?
Yes. Both providers are supported simultaneously; just configure the required GCP environment variables alongside your Azure login.
