talos-mcp

An MCP server that exposes Talos Linux cluster management to AI agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and any MCP-compatible client). Instead of pasting talosctl output into chat, the agent calls structured tools that return machine-readable JSON directly from the Talos gRPC API — zero token cost for intermediate output.

Connects to your cluster via the native Talos gRPC API using the same mTLS credentials as talosctl (~/.talos/config).

Installation

Via npm (no Go required, Linux/macOS, amd64/arm64):

npx talos-mcp

Download binary (Linux/macOS, amd64/arm64):

Download the latest release from GitHub Releases, extract, and place the binary in your $PATH.

Build from source (requires Go 1.21+):

git clone https://github.com/Nosmoht/talos-mcp-server
cd talos-mcp
go build -o talos-mcp ./cmd/talos-mcp

Configuration

Reads ~/.talos/config by default (the same file talosctl uses). Override via environment variables:

Variable	Default	Description
`TALOSCONFIG`	`~/.talos/config`	Path to talosconfig file
`TALOS_CONTEXT`	active context	Context name to use
`TALOS_ENDPOINTS`	from config	Comma-separated endpoint overrides
`TALOS_MCP_READ_ONLY`	`false`	Set to `true` to disable all mutating tools at startup
`TALOS_MCP_HTTP_ADDR`	(unset)	If set (e.g. `:8080`), serve Streamable HTTP instead of stdio
`TALOS_MCP_AUTH_TOKEN`	(unset)	Required bearer token when HTTP mode is active
`TALOS_MCP_ALLOWED_NODES`	(unset)	Comma-separated IPs, hostnames, and CIDR ranges permitted as tool targets. Unset allows all.
`TALOS_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS`	(all)	Comma-separated path prefixes allowed for `talos_read_file` and `talos_list_files` (e.g. `/etc,/proc`)
`TALOS_MCP_SKIP_VERSION_CHECK`	`false`	Set to `true` to bypass upgrade path validation (e.g. for factory images or custom tags)
`TALOS_MCP_RATE_LIMIT`	`10`	HTTP mode: token-bucket refill rate (requests/second, float)
`TALOS_MCP_RATE_BURST`	`20`	HTTP mode: token-bucket burst capacity (int)
`TALOS_MCP_MAX_BODY_SIZE`	`4194304`	HTTP mode: max POST request body size in bytes (4 MiB default)
`TALOS_MCP_MAX_CONCURRENT`	`20`	HTTP mode: max concurrent POST handlers (fail-fast 503 on overload)
`TALOS_MCP_SUBSCRIPTION_RATE`	`1s`	Minimum interval between delivered `resources/updated` notifications per `(session, URI)` pair (Go duration, e.g. `500ms`)
`TALOS_MCP_SUBSCRIPTION_BURST`	`3`	Initial notification burst per `(session, URI)` before the rate kicks in

Compatibility

This server is tested against Talos Linux v1.9.x through v1.12.x.

talos-mcp	Talos Linux	machinery SDK
v0.x (current)	v1.9.0 – v1.12.x	v1.12.6

The server logs a startup warning if the connected cluster's Talos version is outside the tested range. All 19 gRPC methods use
