Overview

What is CloudStack MCP?

CloudStack MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Apache CloudStack that allows AI agents to interact with CloudStack infrastructure. The project is under development and is a proof of concept, so not all features are available yet.

How to use CloudStack MCP?

Install dependencies (brew install go-task go docker), clone the repository, and start the environment with task docker:start. Then configure your MCP client (Cursor or Claude Desktop) to connect via SSE (http://localhost:8250/sse) or stdio (using docker compose). Detailed setup instructions for both clients are provided in the README.

Key features of CloudStack MCP

  • Translates MCP protocol requests into CloudStack API calls
  • Provides common operations like VM deployment and management
  • Handles authentication and API interaction automatically
  • Supports both SSE and stdio transports
  • Includes a containerized CloudMonkey CLI for manual CloudStack commands

Use cases of CloudStack MCP

  • AI‑assisted listing and management of CloudStack resources (e.g., VPCs, zones)
  • Automating VM deployment and lifecycle management through an AI agent
  • Integrating AI assistants with existing CloudStack infrastructure

FAQ from CloudStack MCP

What are the dependencies for running CloudStack MCP?

On macOS, you need brew install go-task go docker. Additionally, to use the server with an MCP client, you may need Cursor or Claude Desktop.

How do I start the server?

Run task docker:start from the repository root. The server will expose an SSE endpoint on port 8250.

Is CloudStack MCP production‑ready?

No. The project is under development and is a proof of concept. Many features are not yet available.

What transports does CloudStack MCP support?

It supports SSE (recommended) and stdio. JSON configuration examples for both transports are provided in the README.

Can I use CloudStack MCP with Claude Desktop?

The README warns there is a 99% chance it will not work with Claude Desktop, but provides a starting point for configuration via task mcp:setup:claude-desktop.
