# Terraform Cloud MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates AI assistants with the Terraform Cloud API, allowing you to manage your infrastructure through natural conversation. Built with Pydantic models and structured around domain-specific modules, this server is compatible with any MCP-supporting platform including Claude, Claude Code CLI, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Copilot Studio, and others.

## Features
- **Account Management**: Get account details for authenticated users or service accounts.
- **Workspace Management**: Create, read, update, delete, lock/unlock workspaces.
- **Run Management**: Create runs, list runs, get run details, apply/discard/cancel runs.
- **Organization Management**: List, create, update, delete organizations, and view organization entitlements.
- **Future Features**: State management, variables management, and more.

## Quick Start
### Prerequisites
- Python 3.12+
- MCP (includes FastMCP and development tools)
- `uv` package manager (recommended) or `pip`
- Terraform Cloud API token
---
### Installation
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/severity1/terraform-cloud-mcp.git
cd terraform-cloud-mcp
# Create virtual environment and activate it
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
# Install package
uv pip install .
```
### Adding to Claude Environments
#### Adding to Claude Code CLI
```bash
# Add to Claude Code with your Terraform Cloud token
claude mcp add -e TFC_TOKEN=YOUR_TF_TOKEN -s user terraform-cloud-mcp -- "terraform-cloud-mcp"
```
#### Adding to Claude Desktop
Create a `claude_desktop_config.json` configuration file:
- mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- win: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"terraform-cloud-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/uv", # Get this by running: `which uv`
"args": [
"--directory",
"/path/to/your/terraform-cloud-mcp", # Full path to this project
"run",
"terraform-cloud-mcp"
],
"env": {
"TFC_TOKEN": "my token..." # replace with actual token
}
}
}
}
```
Replace `your_terraform_cloud_token` with your actual Terraform Cloud API token.
#### Other MCP-Compatible Platforms
For other platforms (like Cursor, Copilot Studio, or Glama), follow their platform-specific instructions for adding an MCP server. Most platforms require:
1. The server path or command to start the server.
2. Environment variables for the Terraform Cloud API token.
3. Configuration to auto-start the server when needed.

## Documentation
The codebase includes comprehensive documentation:
- **Code Comments**: Focused on explaining the "why" behind implementation decisions
- **Docstrings**: All public functions and classes include detailed docstrings
- **Example Files**: The `docs/` directory contains detailed examples for each domain:
- `docs/DEVELOPMENT.md`: Development standards and coding guidelines
- `docs/CONTRIBUTING.md`: Guidelines for contributing to the project
- `docs/models/`: Usage examples for all model types
- `docs/tools/`: Detailed usage examples for each tool
- `docs/conversations/`: Sample conversation flows with the API
## Troubleshooting
1. Check server logs (debug logging is enabled by default)
2. Use the MCP Inspector (http://localhost:5173) for debugging
3. Debug logging is already enabled in `server.py`:
```python
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
```
