temps-mcp-setup: Research & Knowledge for AI Agents | OpenAgentSkill

Overview

Configure Temps as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so AI assistants can interact with a Temps instance directly -- listing/inspecting projects and deployments, and (when write mode is enabled) triggering deployments with human confirmation. Use when the user wants to: (1) Set up the Temps MCP server, (2) Connect Claude Code/Desktop, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, or Zed to Temps, (3) Add Temps tools to an AI assistant, (4) Test the MCP wizard locally, (5) Manage multiple Temps MCP connections (dev, staging, prod, or several local dev slots) side by side. Triggers: "temps mcp", "configure temps tools", "add temps to claude", "temps ai assistant", "mcp server setup", "mcp add", "test the mcp wizard".

Temps MCP Setup

Temps serves MCP (Model Context Protocol) directly from the temps binary itself (ADR-039, crates/temps-mcp-server) -- there is no separate package to install or keep up to date. The MCP endpoint calls the same service layer as the REST API, so it cannot drift from it the way the old standalone @temps-sdk/mcp npm package did (removed in PR #355 for exactly that reason -- do not reinstall it or point a client at it).

Installer wizard lives in apps/temps-cli/src/commands/mcp/ (bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add|remove|status).

1. Enable the MCP server (operator, one-time per instance)

Off by default (AppSettings.mcp_server.enabled = false), so a fresh install never exposes it unconfigured. Turn it on as an admin:

bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp enable

If you're not logged in yet, mcp enable offers to run the device-flow login inline (see Auth model, precisely below) -- no separate temps login step required first.

mcp enable does the same GET-modify-PUT round-trip against /api/settings the handler requires (it takes the full AppSettings object, not a partial patch), merging onto whatever is already fetched so it can never clobber another admin's settings. mcp disable reverses it.

Verify it took effect, or check status any time without re-running enable:

bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status
# "This instance: <check> enabled (http://localhost:8080)" or "<bullet> disabled (...)"

Or probe the endpoint directly (no auth needed for this one):

curl -s http://localhost:8080/mcp/tools
# {"groups":[{"key":"deployments","label":"Deployments & Projects"}, ...]}
# A 404 here means the flag is still off (or this instance predates MCP support).

2. Configure your AI client (per user, per client)

bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add <client>

<client> is one of: claude-code, claude-desktop, codex, cursor, vscode, windsurf, zed.

Auth model, precisely: mcp add/mcp enable/mcp disable need you logged into the CLI so the wizard can mint an API key on your behalf -- that login has nothing to do with MCP itself. If you're not already logged in, these commands detect that and offer to run the device-authorization flow right there (prompts "Log in now?", then "Temps server URL", defaulting to your current config) rather than erroring out and making you run temps login as a separate step first. Under the hood it's the same flow temps login uses (/auth/cli/device/start + /auth/cli/device/poll, server-authoritative polling, no code to type, browser approval). In --yes (non-interactive) mode this inline offer is skipped -- pass --api-key or ensure a context is already logged in. What actually gets written into the AI client's config either way is a plain, long-lived Authorization: Bearer <api-key> header -- the same static-bearer-token pattern PostHog's own MCP wizard uses, and one of the two auth patterns the MCP HTTP transport spec supports (the other being full OAuth 2.1 + dynamic client registration, which most of these 7 clients don't yet implement for remote MCP servers anyway).

The wizard will:

Probe /mcp/tools to confirm the instance has MCP enabled (see step 1). If it 404s, it tells you so and stops -- it will not silently write a broken config.
Ask which tool groups to enable (default: all).
Ask whether to enable write tools (default: no -- read-only). Write tools still require human confirmation per call even when enabled (see below).
Offer to create a dedicated, scoped API key for MCP access, recommended over reusing a broader existing credential. The new key's role is role_type: 'reader' when write mode is off, 'user' when it's on (the user role carries DeploymentsWrite; reader does not).
Write the client's config file (or, for Claude Code/Codex, shell out to their own claude mcp add / codex mcp add so their config format is never hand-maintained here).

Other subcommands:

bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status         # which clients on this machine have Temps configured
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp remove <client>

Restart the AI client after running mcp add -- most clients only read MCP config at startup.

3. Testing the wizard locally, end-to-end

Bring up a local instance with the start-temps skill first (or reuse one you already have running), noting its slot -- every non-zero slot has its own ports, database, and login, so treat the printed web/api URLs as this instance's identity for the rest of this section.

Fastest path to a working test without the interactive prompts: mcp add --yes with an explicit --api-key, pointed at the slot's API URL via TEMPS_API_URL (or --target-context, if you've already run temps login against that instance and saved a context).

# One-time per slot: enable the flag (step 1) and mint a throwaway admin key
# (or use the wizard's own key-creation step interactively instead).

TEMPS_API_URL=http://localhost:<8080+slot*10> bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add claude-code \
  --api-key <key> --yes

Then drive the protocol directly with curl -- this is the fastest way to verify the server side without depending on any particular AI client being installed:

API=http://localhost:<8080+slot*10>
KEY=<your-api-key>

# Capability probe (no auth)
curl -s "$API/mcp/tools"

# initialize
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

# tools/list -- add ?write=1 to the $API/mcp URL to also see trigger_deployment/confirm_action
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'

# tools/call
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":3,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"list_projects","arguments":{}}}'

If list_projects returns [], there's nothing to look at yet -- create a project via the normal REST API or the web UI first (create_project is not an MCP tool; see Current Coverage below).

Testing the write flow (propose-then-confirm): call trigger_deployment on the ?write=1 connection with a real project_id/environment_id, note the _proposal_token in the response, then call confirm_action with that token within 5 minutes. Confirm it only works once -- replaying the same token must return a Proposal token not found or already used error. If you have DB access, confirm the audit row landed: SELECT * FROM audit_logs WHERE operation_type = 'MCP_DEPLOYMENT_TRIGGERED' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1;.

Testing an actual AI client end-to-end: after mcp add <client> and a restart, ask it something that requires a tool call ("list my Temps projects") and confirm it actually invokes list_projects rather than hallucinating an answer -- most clients show a tool-call approval prompt or a visible "using tool" indicator you can check against the request actually hitting your instance's logs.

4. Managing multiple installations

You will commonly have more than one Temps instance you want an AI client talking to at once -- several local dev slots, or dev + staging + prod. Each is a fully independent MCP connection: a distinct URL, a distinct API key, and (for clients that support named servers) a distinct entry in that client's config.

Run mcp add <client> once per instance you want configured. The wizard does not currently namespace by instance -- it writes to the single temps entry key most clients use (mcpServers.temps / context_servers.temps / etc.), so adding a second instance for the same client overwrites the first entry rather than adding a second one. If you need two Temps connections live in the same client simultaneously today, hand-edit the client's config file after running the wizard once, duplicating the temps entry under a second key (e.g. temps-staging) with that instance's URL/key -- the wizard itself doesn't offer this yet.
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status only reports whether a Temps entry exists per client, not which instance it points at -- check the URL inside the config file directly if you've hand-edited it, or bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp remove <client> and re-run mcp add when switching which instance a client talks to.
Scope API keys per instance, not per person. Each mcp add run against a different instance should mint its own key on that instance (step 2.4) rather than reusing one key across instances -- keys don't work cross-instance anyway (each instance has its own user/key table), but it also keeps revocation scoped: pulling a compromised or no-longer-needed key from one instance's Settings -> API Keys doesn't touch the others.
Local dev slots are the common case for this repo. Each start-temps slot is already a fully separate instance (own port, own DB, own admin login) -- point TEMPS_API_URL at the specific slot you're testing (see the start-temps skill for the port formula) and mint a key on that slot. Don't reuse a key minted on slot 0 against slot 3's API URL; it will 401 (different DB, different users table).
Read-only vs. write connections are also separate "installations" in practice. If you want both a safe read-only Temps connection for everyday use and a write-enabled one for a specific deployment-management session, that's two mcp add runs (two keys, two config entries) rather than one -- the wizard's write-mode question is per-connection, not a runtime toggle.

Tool groups

Tools are organized into 7 groups, selectable via the wizard or the connection URL's ?groups= param:

Group	Contents
`deployments`	projects, deployments, environments, presets
`infrastructure`	services, containers, load-balancer, scans
`networking`	domains, custom-domains, dns-providers, ip-access
`data`	backups, dsn
`observability`	monitors, incidents, errors, proxy-logs, funnels, analytics
`notifications`	notifications, notification-prefs, webhooks, email-domains, email-providers
`platform`	users, settings, api-keys, audit, tokens, platform

Current coverage: only platform (list_projects, get_project) and deployments (list_deployments, and the write tools trigger_deployment / confirm_action) have real tools implemented so far. The other five groups exist in the taxonomy but have no tools registered yet -- tools/list omits them until they're ported from the old mcp/src/tools/*.ts reference implementations (kept on this branch for reference, not published). Notably, there is no create_project MCP tool yet -- create projects via the REST API or web UI, then use MCP to list/inspect/deploy them.

# Temps MCP Setup

Temps serves MCP (Model Context Protocol) directly from the `temps` binary itself
(ADR-039, `crates/temps-mcp-server`) -- there is no separate package to install or
keep up to date. The MCP endpoint calls the same service layer as the REST API, so
it cannot drift from it the way the old standalone `@temps-sdk/mcp` npm package did
(removed in PR #355 for exactly that reason -- do not reinstall it or point a
client at it).

Installer wizard lives in `apps/temps-cli/src/commands/mcp/`
(`bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add|remove|status`).

## 1. Enable the MCP server (operator, one-time per instance)

Off by default (`AppSettings.mcp_server.enabled = false`), so a fresh install never
exposes it unconfigured. Turn it on as an admin:

```bash
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp enable
```

If you're not logged in yet, `mcp enable` offers to run the device-flow login
inline (see [Auth model, precisely](#2-configure-your-ai-client-per-user-per-client)
below) -- no separate `temps login` step required first.

`mcp enable` does the same GET-modify-PUT round-trip against `/api/settings` the
handler requires (it takes the **full** `AppSettings` object, not a partial patch),
merging onto whatever is already fetched so it can never clobber another admin's
settings. `mcp disable` reverses it.

Verify it took effect, or check status any time without re-running enable:

```bash
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status
# "This instance: <check> enabled (http://localhost:8080)" or "<bullet> disabled (...)"
```

Or probe the endpoint directly (no auth needed for this one):

```bash
curl -s http://localhost:8080/mcp/tools
# {"groups":[{"key":"deployments","label":"Deployments & Projects"}, ...]}
# A 404 here means the flag is still off (or this instance predates MCP support).
```

## 2. Configure your AI client (per user, per client)

```bash
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add <client>
```

`<client>` is one of: `claude-code`, `claude-desktop`, `codex`, `cursor`, `vscode`,
`windsurf`, `zed`.

**Auth model, precisely:** `mcp add`/`mcp enable`/`mcp disable` need you logged
into the CLI so the wizard can mint an API key on your behalf -- that login has
nothing to do with MCP itself. If you're not already logged in, these commands
detect that and offer to run the device-authorization flow right there (prompts
"Log in now?", then "Temps server URL", defaulting to your current config) rather
than erroring out and making you run `temps login` as a separate step first. Under
the hood it's the same flow `temps login` uses (`/auth/cli/device/start` +
`/auth/cli/device/poll`, server-authoritative polling, no code to type, browser
approval). In `--yes` (non-interactive) mode this inline offer is skipped --
pass `--api-key` or ensure a context is already logged in. What actually gets
written into the AI client's config either way is a plain, long-lived
`Authorization: Bearer <api-key>` header -- the same static-bearer-token pattern
PostHog's own MCP wizard uses, and one of the two auth patterns the MCP HTTP
transport spec supports (the other being full OAuth 2.1 + dynamic client
registration, which most of these 7 clients don't yet implement for remote MCP
servers anyway).

The wizard will:
1. Probe `/mcp/tools` to confirm the instance has MCP enabled (see step 1). If it
   404s, it tells you so and stops -- it will not silently write a broken config.
2. Ask which tool groups to enable (default: all).
3. Ask whether to enable write tools (default: **no** -- read-only). Write tools
   still require human confirmation per call even when enabled (see below).
4. Offer to create a dedicated, scoped API key for MCP access, recommended over
   reusing a broader existing credential. The new key's role is `role_type:
   'reader'` when write mode is off, `'user'` when it's on (the `user` role
   carries `DeploymentsWrite`; `reader` does not).
5. Write the client's config file (or, for Claude Code/Codex, shell out to their
   own `claude mcp add` / `codex mcp add` so their config format is never
   hand-maintained here).

Other subcommands:

```bash
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status         # which clients on this machine have Temps configured
bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp remove <client>
```

Restart the AI client after running `mcp add` -- most clients only read MCP config
at startup.

## 3. Testing the wizard locally, end-to-end

Bring up a local instance with the `start-temps` skill first (or reuse one you
already have running), noting its **slot** -- every non-zero slot has its own
ports, database, and login, so treat the printed `web`/`api` URLs as this
instance's identity for the rest of this section.

Fastest path to a working test without the interactive prompts: `mcp add --yes`
with an explicit `--api-key`, pointed at the slot's API URL via `TEMPS_API_URL` (or
`--target-context`, if you've already run `temps login` against that instance and
saved a context).

```bash
# One-time per slot: enable the flag (step 1) and mint a throwaway admin key
# (or use the wizard's own key-creation step interactively instead).

TEMPS_API_URL=http://localhost:<8080+slot*10> bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp add claude-code \
  --api-key <key> --yes
```

Then drive the protocol directly with `curl` -- this is the fastest way to verify
the server side without depending on any particular AI client being installed:

```bash
API=http://localhost:<8080+slot*10>
KEY=<your-api-key>

# Capability probe (no auth)
curl -s "$API/mcp/tools"

# initialize
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

# tools/list -- add ?write=1 to the $API/mcp URL to also see trigger_deployment/confirm_action
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'

# tools/call
curl -s "$API/mcp" -H "Authorization: Bearer $KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":3,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"list_projects","arguments":{}}}'
```

If `list_projects` returns `[]`, there's nothing to look at yet -- create a project
via the normal REST API or the web UI first (`create_project` is not an MCP tool;
see Current Coverage below).

**Testing the write flow** (propose-then-confirm): call `trigger_deployment` on the
`?write=1` connection with a real `project_id`/`environment_id`, note the
`_proposal_token` in the response, then call `confirm_action` with that token
within 5 minutes. Confirm it only works once -- replaying the same token must
return a `Proposal token not found or already used` error. If you have DB access,
confirm the audit row landed: `SELECT * FROM audit_logs WHERE operation_type =
'MCP_DEPLOYMENT_TRIGGERED' ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1;`.

**Testing an actual AI client end-to-end:** after `mcp add <client>` and a restart,
ask it something that requires a tool call ("list my Temps projects") and confirm
it actually invokes `list_projects` rather than hallucinating an answer -- most
clients show a tool-call approval prompt or a visible "using tool" indicator you
can check against the request actually hitting your instance's logs.

## 4. Managing multiple installations

You will commonly have more than one Temps instance you want an AI client talking
to at once -- several local dev slots, or dev + staging + prod. Each is a fully
independent MCP connection: a distinct URL, a distinct API key, and (for clients
that support named servers) a distinct entry in that client's config.

- **Run `mcp add <client>` once per instance you want configured.** The wizard
  does not currently namespace by instance -- it writes to the single `temps`
  entry key most clients use (`mcpServers.temps` / `context_servers.temps` /
  etc.), so adding a second instance for the *same* client **overwrites** the
  first entry rather than adding a second one. If you need two Temps connections
  live in the same client simultaneously today, hand-edit the client's config
  file after running the wizard once, duplicating the `temps` entry under a
  second key (e.g. `temps-staging`) with that instance's URL/key -- the wizard
  itself doesn't offer this yet.
- **`bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp status`** only reports whether *a* Temps entry exists
  per client, not which instance it points at -- check the URL inside the config
  file directly if you've hand-edited it, or `bunx @temps-sdk/cli mcp remove
  <client>` and re-run `mcp add` when switching which instance a client talks to.

- **Read-only vs. write connections are also separate "installations" in
  practice.** If you want both a safe read-only Temps connection for everyday use
  and a write-enabled one for a specific deployment-management session, that's

| `observability` | monitors, incidents, errors, proxy-logs, funnels, analytics |
| `notifications` | notifications, notification-prefs, webhooks, email-domains, email-providers |
| `platform` | users, settings, api-keys, audit, tokens, platform |

**Current coverage:** only `platform` (`list_projects`, `get_project`) and
`deployments` (`list_deployments`, and the write tools `trigger_deployment` /

Skill purpose: Configure Temps as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so AI assistants can interact with a Temps instance directly -- listing/inspecting projects and deployments, and (when write mode is enabled) triggering deployments with human confirmation. Use when the user wants to: (1) Set up the Temps MCP server, (2) Connect Claude Code/Desktop, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, or Zed to Temps, (3) Add Temps tools to an AI assistant, (4) Test the MCP wizard locally, (5) Manage multiple Temps MCP connections (dev, staging, prod, or several local dev slots) side by side. Triggers: \"temps mcp\", \"configure temps tools\", \"add temps to claude\", \"temps ai assistant\", \"mcp server setup\", \"mcp add\", \"test the mcp wizard\".
