Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@ibmi-agent-kit open a 5250 session and show me the active jobs on the system"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
An MCP toolkit that lets AI agents work on IBM i the way a person does: drive 5250 green screens, read and compile source, and learn an enterprise's data structures and business workflows from a knowledge pack — plain YAML a team can write and review.
Status: early. The two engines are imported; knowledge packs are being designed.
Package | What it does | Origin |
| Drives 5250 sessions over TN5250: structured screens, fields, keys, live viewer, Markdown screen tests | imported from SH4RKKK/ibm-i-5250-mcp |
| Reads, searches, edits and compiles source members over SSH | imported from SH4RKKK/ibm-i-source-mcp |
Planned: a single MCP entry point over both, and knowledge packs (schema, glossary,
workflows, safety) that teach the agent one enterprise. See docs/idea.md.
