README

Elasticsearch/OpenSearch MCP Server

Overview

Demo

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f7409e31-fac4-4321-9c94-b0ff2ea7ff15

Features

General Operations

general_api_request: Perform a general HTTP API request. Use this tool for any Elasticsearch/OpenSearch API that does not have a dedicated tool.

Index Operations

list_indices: List all indices.
get_index: Returns information (mappings, settings, aliases) about one or more indices.
create_index: Create a new index.
delete_index: Delete an index.
create_data_stream: Create a new data stream (requires matching index template).
get_data_stream: Get information about one or more data streams.
delete_data_stream: Delete one or more data streams and their backing indices.

Document Operations

search_documents: Search for documents.
index_document: Creates or updates a document in the index.
get_document: Get a document by ID.
delete_document: Delete a document by ID.
delete_by_query: Deletes documents matching the provided query.

Cluster Operations

get_cluster_health: Returns basic information about the health of the cluster.
get_cluster_stats: Returns high-level overview of cluster statistics.

Alias Operations

list_aliases: List all aliases.
get_alias: Get alias information for a specific index.
put_alias: Create or update an alias for a specific index.
delete_alias: Delete an alias for a specific index.

Analyzer Operations

analyze_text: Analyze text using a specified analyzer or custom analysis chain. Useful for debugging search queries and understanding how text is tokenized.

Configure Environment Variables

The MCP server supports the following environment variables:

Basic Authentication (Username/Password)

ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME: Username for basic authentication
ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD: Password for basic authentication
OPENSEARCH_USERNAME: Username for OpenSearch basic authentication
OPENSEARCH_PASSWORD: Password for OpenSearch basic authentication

API Key Authentication (Elasticsearch only) - Recommended

ELASTICSEARCH_API_KEY: API key for Elasticsearch or Elastic Cloud Authentication.

Connection Settings

ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS / OPENSEARCH_HOSTS: Comma-separated list of hosts (default: https://localhost:9200)
ELASTICSEARCH_CLUSTERS / OPENSEARCH_CLUSTERS: Inline JSON object for named cluster configurations. When set, tools can target a specific cluster with the optional cluster parameter.
ELASTICSEARCH_CLUSTERS_FILE / OPENSEARCH_CLUSTERS_FILE: Path to a JSON file with the clusters object. Recommended when the configuration is embedded inside another JSON file (e.g. the MCP client config) because it avoids JSON-in-JSON escaping. Takes precedence over the inline variable when both are set.
DEFAULT_CLUSTER: Default cluster name to use when multi-cluster configuration is set and a tool call omits cluster (defaults to the first configured cluster).
VERIFY_CERTS: Whether to verify SSL certificates (default: false)
`REQUEST_TIMEOU
