What is the Rebar MCP Server?

Rebar is an MCP integration. Event-sourced ticket tracker + Jira reconciler, exposed as a Python library, CLI, and MCP server.

Packages and local setup

The published pypi package is nava-rebar, version 0.13.1. Its declared MCP transport is stdio.

The package declares REBAR_ROOT: Path to the repo root that holds the .tickets-tracker store (defaults to the git toplevel of the working dir).; REBAR_MCP_READONLY: Set to 1 to expose only the read tools (no write/mutation tools).; REBAR_MCP_ALLOW_LLM: Set to 1 to enable the billable LLM tools (review_code / scan_spec / verify_completion / review_plan); off by default.; REBAR_MCP_ALLOW_JIRA_SYNC: Set to 1 to allow the live (mutating) Jira reconcile mode; otherwise reconcile is dry-run only.; REBAR_MCP_TRANSPORT: Transport for the MCP server: 'stdio' (default) or 'http' (the optional Streamable-HTTP transport).; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_HOST: Bind host for the Streamable-HTTP transport (default 127.0.0.1).; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_PORT: Bind port for the Streamable-HTTP transport (1-65535; default 8000).; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_PATH: URL path the Streamable-HTTP transport serves on (default /mcp).; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_ALLOWED_HOSTS: Comma-separated allowlist of exact host:port values accepted by the Streamable-HTTP DNS-rebinding protection; empty defaults to loopback.; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS: Comma-separated allowlist of exact Origin values accepted by the Streamable-HTTP DNS-rebinding protection; empty defaults to loopback.; REBAR_MCP_HTTP_TLS_AT_EDGE: Set to 1 to acknowledge TLS is terminated at the edge; required to bind the Streamable-HTTP transport to a non-loopback host.; REBAR_MCP_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_HTTP: Set to 1 to acknowledge running the Streamable-HTTP transport without a token verifier; required to boot the HTTP transport while auth is off.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_ENABLED: Set to 1 to enable MCP authentication (the composite token verifier + Resource-Server wiring); off by default.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_STRATEGIES: Comma-separated, ordered list of token-verifier strategies to compose (closed set: static, jwt, introspection, proxy, custom).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_ISSUER_URL: OAuth authorization-server issuer URL advertised in the Protected-Resource Metadata (RFC 9728) when auth is enabled.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_RESOURCE_SERVER_URL: The single resource identifier (RFC 8707 audience) for this server; the composite verifier re-checks every accepted token against it.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_REQUIRED_SCOPES: Comma-separated scopes a caller must hold; the SDK returns 403 insufficient_scope when a principal lacks one.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_STATIC_TOKENS_FILE: Path to the JSON secrets file for the static-bearer verifier (stores only SHA-256 digests of the accepted tokens).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_JWKS_URI: HTTPS JWKS endpoint the jwt verifier fetches signing keys from (an OIDC provider's .well-known/jwks.json).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_ISSUER: Expected iss claim for the jwt verifier; falls back to REBAR_MCP_AUTH_ISSUER_URL when unset.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_ALGORITHMS: Comma-separated PINNED, asymmetric-only JWS algorithms for the jwt verifier (default RS256,ES256); a symmetric algorithm on a JWKS source is refused.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_LEEWAY: Clock-skew leeway in seconds applied to exp/nbf validation by the jwt verifier (default 60).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_JWKS_REFETCH_COOLDOWN: Minimum seconds between JWKS refetches triggered by an unknown key id (the concurrency-safe flood guard; default 30).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_JWKS_TIMEOUT: HTTP timeout in seconds for the jwt verifier's JWKS fetch (default 10).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_EXPECTED_TYP: When set, the jwt verifier requires the JWT header typ to equal this (e.g. at+JWT per RFC 9068); unset skips the check.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_JWT_ALLOW_PRIVATE_JWKS_HOST: Set to 1 to permit a private/link-local/loopback JWKS host (SSRF guard is on by default); off by default.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_INTROSPECTION_ENDPOINT: The introspection verifier's RFC 7662 endpoint URL (must be https://); the opaque token is POSTed here on every request (no caching).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_INTROSPECTION_CLIENT_ID: The client id the introspection verifier presents to the Authorization Server via HTTP Basic (client_secret_basic).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_INTROSPECTION_CLIENT_SECRET_ENV: The NAME of the env var holding the introspection client secret (never the secret itself); must be present + non-empty at startup or the server refuses to start (fail-closed).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_INTROSPECTION_ALLOW_PRIVATE_HOST: Set to 1 to permit a private/link-local/loopback introspection endpoint host (SSRF guard is on by default); off by default.; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_INTROSPECTION_ALLOW_MISSING_AUD: Set to 1 to accept an active introspection response that OMITS aud (many AS do); off by default (fail-closed reject).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_PROXY_SECRET_ENV: The NAME of the env var holding the trusted-proxy shared secret (never the secret itself); must be present + non-empty at startup or the proxy verifier refuses to start (fail-closed).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_PROXY_SECRET_HEADER: The header the fronting proxy sends its shared secret on; the identity is trusted only when this matches (constant-time; default x-proxy-auth).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_PROXY_IDENTITY_HEADER: The header carrying the proxy-authenticated principal identity, trusted only when the secret header validates (default x-forwarded-user).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_PROXY_SCOPES: Comma-separated fixed scope set granted to proxy-authenticated principals; empty by default (the principal holds no scopes).; REBAR_MCP_AUTH_CUSTOM_IMPORT: The custom strategy's module:factory import string, resolving to a factory that returns a TokenVerifier; a TRUSTED operator config value that loads and executes the operator-configured code at startup (fail-closed on any load error)..

Before connecting

Check the maintainer’s instructions for account access, authentication and the supported client configuration. Once connected, inspect the tools your client receives and try a small task that matches the server’s stated purpose. The registry description does not include a verified, complete tool list.
