What io.github.Nosmoht/talos-mcp-server does

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.

README

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

Via npm (global install) for persistent invocation from $PATH:

npm install -g talos-mcp

Installs the binary as <npm-prefix>/bin/talos-mcp. Verify with:

which talos-mcp        # path
talos-mcp --version    # version + commit hash
npm list -g talos-mcp  # npm's view of the installed version

Upgrade to the latest published release:

npm install -g talos-mcp@latest

New releases appear on npmjs.com within minutes of every feat: / fix: / perf: (or breaking) merge to main — see CONTRIBUTING.md § Post-merge release pipeline for the mechanism.

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`). Defense-in-depth only — checks run on the MCP server host and do not resolve symlinks on the remote Talos node, so a symlink under an allowed prefix that points elsewhere is not detected.
`TALOS_MCP_SKIP_VERSION_CHECK`	`false`	Set to `true` to bypass upgrade path validation (e.g. for factory images or custom tags)
`TALOS_MCP_ENABLE_INSECURE`	`false`	Unlock `insecure=true` on `talos_apply_config` / `talos_get` / `talos_version` / `talos_meta`. Bypasses mTLS — REQUIRES `TALOS_MCP_INSECURE_AL
