MCP MCP Server

MCP MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on MCP directly instead of describing what you should do. A comprehensive MCP (Model Context Protocol) server providing OpenStack cluster management and monitoring capabilities with built-in safety controls.

What you get

Post-Action Status: 🟢 test-vm-1: SHUTOFF 🟢 test-vm-2: SHUTOFF 🔴 test-vm-3: ERROR ```

• ✅ Project-Scoped Operations: Every tool enforces the configured OS_PROJECT_NAME, validating resource ownership so actions stay inside a single tenant
• ✅ Safety-Gated Writes: Modify (set_*) tooling only registers when ALLOW_MODIFY_OPERATIONS=true, keeping default deployments read-only and auditable
• ✅ 90+ Purpose-Built Tools: Broad coverage across compute, networking, storage, images, identity, Heat, and Octavia load balancing tasks—all constrained to the current project
• ✅ Bulk & Filtered Actions: Instance, volume, network, image, snapshot, and keypair managers accept comma-delimited targets or filter criteria to orchestrate bulk changes intentionally
• ✅ Post-Action Feedback & Async Guidance: Mutating tools reuse a shared result handler that adds emoji status checks, asynchronous timing notes, and follow-up verification commands
• ✅ Monitoring & Usage Insights: get_service_status, get_resource_monitoring, get_usage_statistics, and quota tools surface service availability, utilization, and capacity for the active project

What the assistant can call

Once MCP is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

• Screenshots — The Screenshots tool exposed by this server

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

Choosing this one

Plenty of monitoring and observability servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. MCP's toolset — Screenshots — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Before you rely on it

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the mcp mcp server does with a few real requests.
