remote-capable server
The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.
Integrations
Allows AI assistants to interact with Prefect through natural language, providing access to flow management, flow run management, deployment management, task run monitoring, work queue management, block management, variable management, and workspace information.
Prefect MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for Prefect, allowing AI assistants to interact with Prefect through natural language.
Features
This MCP server provides access to the following Prefect APIs:
- Flow Management: List, get, and delete flows
- Flow Run Management: Create, monitor, and control flow runs
- Deployment Management: Manage deployments and their schedules
- Task Run Management: Monitor and control task runs
- Work Queue Management: Create and manage work queues
- Block Management: Access block types and documents
- Variable Management: Create and manage variables
- Workspace Management: Get information about workspaces
Configuration
Set the following environment variables:
Usage
Run the MCP server, and prefect:
Example Input
Once connected, an AI assistant can help users interact with Prefect using natural language. Examples:
- "Show me all my flows"
- "List all failed flow runs from yesterday"
- "Trigger the 'data-processing' deployment"
- "Pause the schedule for the 'daily-reporting' deployment"
- "What's the status of my last ETL flow run?"
Development
Several of the endpoints have yet to be implemented
Adding New Functions
To add a new function to an existing API:
- Add the function to the appropriate module in
src/mcp_prefect
- Add the function to the
get_all_functions()
list in the module
To add a new API type:
- Add the new type to
APIType
inenums.py
- Create a new module in
src/prefect/
- Update
main.py
to include the new API type
Example usage:
