Overview
What is MCP-Server-Azure-Impact-Reporting?
This MCP server enables large language models (LLMs) to automatically report resource impacts to Azure. It parses natural language requests, authenticates with Azure using DefaultAzureCredential, and submits workload impact reports via the Azure Management API. It is intended for users who need to quickly report Azure infrastructure issues (e.g., connectivity, performance, availability) without manual API calls.
How to use MCP-Server-Azure-Impact-Reporting?
Clone the repository, install dependencies (mcp[cli] azure-identity httpx), and authenticate with Azure (e.g., az login). Configure your MCP client (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json) with the uv command pointing to the impact-reporter.py script. Once configured, your LLM can submit natural language requests like "Report connectivity issues with my VM named 'web-server' in resource group 'production-rg'." The server parses the request, asks for missing parameters, and creates the impact report.
