Infrahub MCP Server

Infrahub MCP Server connects AI assistants and IDE agents to Infrahub using the open Model Context Protocol standard — so agents can query, create, update, and propose changes to your infrastructure data through a consistent, audited interface. It works with any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, CLI agents, and more) with no custom glue code required.

All writes are branch-isolated and require human approval before merging — agents never modify your default branch directly.

What you can do with it​

  • Query your infrastructure data from natural language — ask an AI assistant to find devices, interfaces, IP addresses, or any node kind defined in your Infrahub schema, with attribute filtering and partial-match search
  • Explore your schema without leaving the conversation — the server exposes your full schema catalog, per-kind attribute and filter maps, and the GraphQL SDL as MCP resources that agents read automatically
  • Make changes on isolated branches — all writes happen on an auto-created session branch (mcp/session-YYYYMMDD-<hex>), so the default branch is never modified directly
  • Submit changes for human review — when edits are ready, call propose_changes to open a Proposed Change (the Infrahub equivalent of a pull request) for approval before merging
  • Run arbitrary GraphQL queries — for advanced use cases, execute any GraphQL query or mutation directly against the Infrahub API

Who this is for​

An infrastructure or network team already using Infrahub that wants their AI coding assistants to understand and interact with their source of truth. You get schema-aware querying, safe branch-isolated writes, and a human-in-the-loop review path — all from your IDE or chat assistant.

A developer building AI-powered infrastructure automation who needs a standardized interface between agents and Infrahub. The MCP server handles authentication, schema discovery, and branch management so you can focus on the agent logic.

What's included​

  • Tools (read) — get_nodes retrieves objects by kind with filters, search_nodes finds nodes by partial name match, query_graphql executes arbitrary GraphQL queries
  • Tools (write) — node_upsert creates or updates nodes, node_delete removes nodes, propose_changes opens a Proposed Change for human review — all on an auto-created session branch
  • Resources — infrahub://schema lists all available kinds, infrahub://schema/{kind} returns full attribute/filter details, infrahub://graphql-schema exposes the GraphQL SDL, infrahub://branches lists all branches
  • Prompts — a built-in infrahub_agent system prompt that teaches agents the branch-per-session workflow and available tools
  • Infrastructure — Dockerfile for container deployment, Docker Compose sidecar configuration, Streamable HTTP transport support

See the Methods reference for full details on every tool, resource, and prompt.

About Infrahub​

Infrahub is an open source infrastructure data management and automation platform (AGPLv3), developed by OpsMill. It gives infrastructure and network teams a unified, schema-driven source of truth for all infrastructure data — devices, topology, IP space, configuration — with built-in version control, a generator framework for automation, and native integrations with Git, Ansible, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines.
