🚀 Akamai Functions MCP Server

Unlock the power of Akamai Functions within your AI Assistant. This MCP (Model Context Protocol) server allows tools like Claude Desktop or Cursor to interact with your edge applications using natural language.

Built in Go and delivered as a Spin Plugin.

🛑 Prerequisites

Before adding the server to your AI client, ensure your local environment is ready:

1. Plugin Installed: You need the aka plugin for Spin:

   spin plugins update
   spin plugins install aka --yes
   

2. Login Required: You must be authenticated via the aka plugin for `spin:

   spin aka login
   

📦 Installation

Install the latest version of the plugin

The latest stable release of the akamai-functions-mcp plugin can be installed like so:

spin plugins update
spin plugins install akamai-functions-mcp

Install the canary version of the plugin

The canary release of the akamai-functions-mcp represents the most recent commits on main and may not be stable, with some features still in progress.

spin plugins install --url https://github.com/ThorstenHans/akamai-functions-mcp-server/releases/download/canary/akamai-functions-mcp.json

Install from a local build

Alternatively, use the spin pluginify plugin to install from a fresh build. This will use the pluginify manifest (spin-pluginify.toml) to package the plugin and proceed to install it:

spin plugins install pluginify
go build -o akamai-functions-mcp main.go
spin pluginify --install

⚙️ Configuration

To let your AI Assistant use the server, add the spin command to your configuration. Optionally, enable debug logging by appending the --debug flag to the args array.
