Xano MCP Server
by SarimSiddd
# Xano MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for interacting with the Xano API. This server provides tools and resources for managing Xano database operations through the MCP interface.
## Features
- Secure authentication with Xano API
- Type-safe API interactions using TypeScript
- Environment-based configuration
- MCP-compliant interface
- Workspace management tools
- Table content operations (create, read, update)
- Improved error handling with detailed messages
## Installation
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone [your-repo-url]
cd xano_mcp
# Install dependencies
npm install
```
## Configuration
1. Copy the example environment file:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
```
2. Update the `.env` file with your Xano credentials:
```env
XANO_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
XANO_API_URL=your_xano_api_url
NODE_ENV=development
API_TIMEOUT=10000
```
## Development
```bash
# Build the project
npm run build
# Run in development mode
npm run dev
# Start the server
npm start
```

## Available MCP Tools
### Workspace Tools
- `get_workspaces`: List all available workspaces
### Table Tools
- `create_table`: Create a new table in a workspace
- `get_table_content`: Get content from a table with pagination support
- `add_table_content`: Add new content to a table
- `update_table_content`: Update existing content in a table
- `get_all_tables`: List all tables in a workspace with detailed information
## Usage Examples
### Working with Workspaces
```typescript
// List available workspaces
const result = await mcp.use_tool("get_workspaces", {});
console.log('Workspaces:', result);
```
### Managing Tables
```typescript
// Create a new table
const createResult = await mcp.use_tool("create_table", {
workspaceId: 123,
name: "MyTable"
});
// Add content to a table
const addResult = await mcp.use_tool("add_table_content", {
workspaceId: 123,
tableId: 456,
content: {
created_at: "2024-01-22T17:07:00.000Z"
}
});
// Get table content with pagination
const getResult = await mcp.use_tool("get_table_content", {
workspaceId: 123,
tableId: 456,
pagination: {
page: 1,
items: 50
}
});
// Update table content
const updateResult = await mcp.use_tool("update_table_content", {
workspaceId: 123,
tableId: 456,
contentId: "789",
content: {
created_at: "2024-01-22T17:07:00.000Z"
}
});
// List all tables in a workspace
const tables = await mcp.use_tool("get_all_tables", {
workspaceId: 123
});
console.log('Tables:', tables);
// Returns an array of tables with their details:
// [
// {
// id: number,
// name: string,
// description: string,
// created_at: string,
// updated_at: string,
// guid: string,
// auth: boolean,
// tag: string[],
// workspaceId: number
// },
// ...
// ]
```
## Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Required | Default |
|----------|-------------|----------|---------|
| XANO_API_KEY | Your Xano API authentication key | Yes | - |
| XANO_API_URL | Xano API endpoint URL | Yes | - |
| NODE_ENV | Environment (development/production) | No | development |
| API_TIMEOUT | API request timeout in milliseconds | No | 10000 |
## Error Handling
The server provides detailed error messages for:
- Invalid parameters
- Authentication failures
- API request failures
- Content validation errors
- Unknown tool requests
## Security
- Environment variables are used for sensitive configuration
- TruffleHog configuration is included to prevent secret leaks
- API keys and sensitive data are never committed to the repository
