Overview

What is k6-mcp-server?

k6-mcp-server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for running k6 load tests. It allows users to execute performance tests via natural language prompts from an MCP‑compatible client.

How to use k6-mcp-server?

Install Python 3.12+, the k6 load testing tool, and the uv package manager. Clone the repository and run uv pip install -r requirements.txt. Optionally set the K6_BIN environment variable. Configure the server in your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor) with the command /path/to/bin/uv run k6_server.py. Then ask the LLM to run a test; the server uses the execute_k6_test tool (default: 30s duration, 10 VUs) or execute_k6_test_with_options for custom duration and VUs.
