bugzilla-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for managing Bugzilla tickets and projects, served over Express with a built-in cron job that pings Bugzilla on a schedule.

Targets the Bugzilla 5.2 REST API.

Features

  • MCP over Streamable HTTP at POST /mcp (stateless; works with any MCP client)

  • 15 tools covering bugs, comments, attachments, products, components, and field metadata

  • Cron job that pings Bugzilla at a preconfigured time and polls for changed bugs

  • Dockerized (multi-stage build, non-root user, docker-compose)

HTTP Endpoints

Endpoint

Description

POST /mcp

MCP Streamable HTTP endpoint

GET /health

Liveness check

GET /cron/status

Cron schedule, last run time/result

POST /cron/run

Trigger the cron job manually

/mcp and /cron/* require Authorization: Bearer <MCP_AUTH_TOKEN> when MCP_AUTH_TOKEN is set.

Configuration

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in:

Variable

Required

Description

BUGZILLA_BASE_URL

yes

Bugzilla instance URL, e.g. https://bugzilla.example.com

BUGZILLA_API_KEY

yes

API key from Bugzilla Preferences → API Keys

MCP_AUTH_TOKEN

no

Bearer token protecting /mcp and /cron/*

CRON_SCHEDULE

no

Cron expression, evaluated in UTC (default 0 9 * * * = daily 09:00 UTC)

PORT

no

Listen port (default 3000)

The API key is sent as the X-BUGZILLA-API-KEY header on every Bugzilla request.

Running

Docker (recommended)

cp .env.example .env   # then edit
docker compose up --build

Local

npm install
npm run build
npm run start:local   # loads .env via node --env-file; or: npm run dev

npm start reads configuration from the process environment only (used in the Docker image); use start:local or dev to load a local .env file.

Cron Job

At each scheduled tick the job:

  1. Calls GET /rest/version as a health check.

  2. Polls GET /rest/bug?last_change_time=<lastRun> for bugs changed since the previous run (skipped on the first run since there is no baseline).

  3. Logs results and stores the last result in memory, visible at GET /cron/status.

Connecting an MCP Client

Point any Streamable-HTTP-capable MCP client at http://<host>:3000/mcp, with header Authorization: Bearer <MCP_AUTH_TOKEN> if configured.
