MCP (Model Context Protocol) for Cisco APIC

This project provides a simple MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that interacts with a Cisco APIC controller. If you'd like to understand how this works in detail, please check out this blog post

Tested with Claude Desktop and Visual Studio Code in Agent mode with Copilot.

The server runs in STDIO mode, intended for local execution.

Setup

Specify APIC credentials in the .env file.

If you want Claude or VS Code to run the Python code directly (no container), install UV

Register the MCP server with Claude or VS Code.

For VS Code, create a .vscode/mcp.json file like this in your workspace:

{
  "servers": {
    "ciscoApicServer": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "C:\\Users\\cpaggen\\.local\\bin\\uv.EXE",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with",
        "mcp[cli]",
        "mcp",
        "run",
        "C:\\MCP\\app\\main.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Instruct Claude Desktop or VS Code to use it:

See Claude Desktop Quickstart
See VS Code Copilot MCP Servers

Install MCP client tools locally if you invoke the MCP server with uv run mcp as above.

Use uv add "mcp[cli]" or pip install "mcp[cli]"

MCP (Model Context Protocol) for Cisco APIC

This project provides a simple MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that interacts with a Cisco APIC controller. If you'd like to understand how this works in detail, please check out this blog post

Tested with Claude Desktop and Visual Studio Code in Agent mode with Copilot.
The server runs in STDIO mode, intended for local execution.

Features

Exposes two tools for APIC interaction (see app/main.py for details).
Easily configurable via environment variables.

Setup

Specify APIC credentials in the .env file.
If you want Claude or VS Code to run the Python code directly (no container), install UV

Register the MCP server with Claude or VS Code.

For VS Code, create a .vscode/mcp.json file like this in your workspace:

{
  "servers": {
    "ciscoApicServer": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "C:\\Users\\cpaggen\\.local\\bin\\uv.EXE",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with",
        "mcp[cli]",
        "mcp",
        "run",
        "C:\\MCP\\app\\main.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Instruct Claude Desktop or VS Code to use it:
- See Claude Desktop Quickstart
- See VS Code Copilot MCP Servers
Install MCP client tools locally if you invoke the MCP server with uv run mcp as above.
- Use uv add "mcp[cli]" or pip install "mcp[cli]"

Docker Support

You can run the server directly using UV, or build a Docker image and run it as a container. If using Docker, adapt the mcp.json config accordingly.

Note: Local installation of MCP client tools is recommended for debugging the server code.
