Perforce P4 MCP Server
Server Configuration
Describes the environment variables required to run the server.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| P4PORT | No | P4 Server address. Examples: `ssl:perforce.example.com:1666`, `localhost:1666` | |
| P4USER | No | Your P4 username | |
| P4CLIENT | No | Your current P4 workspace. Optional, but recommended | |
| P4CONFIG | No | Name of a P4CONFIG file. If set, you do not need to set any environment variables in the `env` block; the server will use the configuration from the specified P4CONFIG file instead. | |
| P4PASSWD | No | P4 password or ticket content used for authentication (e.g. `-e P4PASSWD="your_password"` or your ticket content). | |
| P4DAM_API_KEY | No | API key for P4 DAM integration, used to access P4 DAM assets and metadata through the REST API. | |
| P4MCP_LOG_DIR | No | Directory for log files. Default: `logs/` in the server executable's directory. Can be overridden by the `--log-dir` CLI argument. | logs/ |
| P4MCP_CA_BUNDLE | No | Custom CA bundle path. Only honored when `P4MCP_TLS_CA_MODE=certifi`; ignored in `system` mode. Can also be set via the `--ca-bundle` CLI argument. | |
| P4MCP_MAX_RESULTS | No | Cap on the number of rows the P4 server returns per command (`p4.maxresults`). Default: `10000`. Set to `0` to disable the limit (server default in effect). When a command would exceed this limit the server aborts it with an error rather than truncating results. Can be overridden by the `--max-results` CLI argument. Must be a non-negative integer; an invalid value fails fast at startup. | 10000 |
| P4MCP_TLS_CA_MODE | No | TLS certificate source mode. `system` (default): use OS trust store via `truststore`. Note: In this mode, `truststore` overrides the `verify=` parameter — custom CA bundles set via `P4MCP_CA_BUNDLE` or `--ca-bundle` are ignored. To use a custom CA bundle, set `P4MCP_TLS_CA_MODE=certifi`. `certifi`: disable `truststore`. | system |
| P4MCP_MAX_SCAN_ROWS | No | Cap on the number of rows the P4 server scans per command (`p4.maxscanrows`). Unset by default, so admin/group policy governs scan limits. Can be overridden by the `--max-scan-rows` CLI argument. Must be a non-negative integer when supplied. |
