README

Unraid

A monorepo of Unraid tooling: two MCP servers (Python and Rust) and three Unraid OS plugins, plus the Claude/Codex agent integrations that surface them.

Repo name. This repo was renamed unraid-mcp → unraid on 2026-07-27, and the former standalone runraid and incus-unraid repos were merged in here. The old GitHub name still redirects, so existing plugin install/update URLs keep working. The PyPI package, the container image, the Claude plugin, and the Unraid .plg are all still named unraid-mcp — only the repo changed.

Components

Path	What it is	Toolchain	Build / test
`unraid-py/`	unraid-mcp — Python MCP server (GraphQL), the flagship. Published to PyPI as `unraid-mcp`.	Python / uv / hatchling	`cd unraid-py && uv run pytest && uv build --wheel`
`unraid-rs/`	runraid — Rust MCP server + CLI (single static binary). Crate `unraid-rmcp` on crates.io, plus a legacy npm wrapper of the same name.	Rust / cargo	`cd unraid-rs && cargo fmt --check && cargo clippy --all-targets --features test-support -- -D warnings && cargo test`
`plugins/mcp/`	Unraid OS plugin that ships the Rust `runraid` MCP server onto an Unraid box.	shell `.plg` + Rust + Vue	`bash plugins/mcp/scripts/build-txz.sh <ver> <runraid-binary>`
`plugins/incus/`	Unraid OS plugin running Incus system containers ("dev containers") firewalled off the LAN. Includes a NestJS/GraphQL `unraid-api` backend.	shell `.plg` + NestJS/Vue	`cd plugins/incus && ./scripts/verify-classic-package.sh && ./tests/classic-contract.sh`
`plugins/codex/`	Unraid OS plugin embedding a Codex chathead app-server.	shell `.plg` + React	`cd plugins/codex && ./tests/contract.sh`
`agents/unraid-py/`	Claude Code / Codex plugin (`name: unraid-mcp`) for the Python server.	—	—
`agents/unraid-rs/`	Claude Code / Codex plugin (`name: runraid`) for the Rust server.	—	—

Install the agent plugins (one marketplace command, two manifests)

/plugin marketplace add dinglebear-ai/unraid
/plugin install unraid-mcp@unraid-mcp   # Python server
/plugin install runraid@unraid-mcp      # Rust server

The @unraid-mcp suffix is the marketplace name declared in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, not the repo name — it stays unraid-mcp even though the repo is now dinglebear-ai/unraid.

Both plugins are published from a single repo. Claude reads .claude-plugin/marketplace.json; Codex reads .agents/plugins/marketplace.json. meta-ci.yml asserts the two list the same plugin set, so they cannot drift.

marketplace add accepts the owner/repo shorthand (or a full git URL / local path). After install, Claude Code prompts for the connection settings (the plugin's userConfig).

Plugin credentials need no manual step

The agent plugins ship no Claude Code hooks, and none are needed: both .mcp.json files map your plugin settings into the server environment directly via ${user_config.*}. agents/unraid-rs wires 10 keys (endpoint, API key, TLS skip, bearer token, four OAuth vars); agents/unraid-py wires UNRAID_API_URL and UNRAID_API_KEY. Set them in plugin settings and the server picks them up on next launch.

Optional, for non-plugin installs (systemd, Docker) that want ~/.unraid/.env written to disk:

runraid setup plugin-hook          # or: npx -y @dinglebear/unraid setup plugin-hook
