IT Operations Hub

เกตเวย์ MCP รวมศูนย์สำหรับงาน IT Operations บัญชี Express / Allinone / Odoo เข้า-ออกงาน ZKTime pstack และคลังเอกสารราชการ — เอเจนต์ AI คุยกับ Zabbix 7, MeshCentral, Express หรือ Allinone หรือ Odoo, ZKTime 5, pstack, และ RAG ผ่าน Streamable HTTP หลัง Cloudflare Tunnel และ Nginx RBAC

A production Docker Compose stack:

Cloudflare Tunnel → Nginx (Bearer RBAC + OAuth DCR) → mcp-hub-it | mcp-hub-admin | mcp-hub-accounting → sub-mcp-zabbix | sub-mcp-meshcentral | sub-mcp-express | sub-mcp-allinone | sub-mcp-odoo | sub-mcp-zktime | sub-mcp-pstack | sub-mcp-rag | sub-mcp-host

All services share a single bridge network, infra-net. MCP hubs and databases are not published on the host. Only LAN/VPN ports for the gateway, Zabbix, and MeshCentral agents are bound.

Tools

Nginx rejects an IT token on /mcp/admin/ and /mcp/accounting/ with HTTP 403. An accounting token cannot call IT or admin paths. The IT hub process does not register the shell tool. Accounting tools are read-only by default; Express = docs/EXPRESS.md, Allinone = docs/ALLINONE.md, Odoo = docs/ODOO.md (write tools stay hidden until ODOO_ALLOW_WRITE=true). Attendance (ZKTime 5) is on the IT/admin hubs; see docs/ZKTIME.md. pstack apps on the same hubs; see docs/PSTACK.md. Document RAG does not require a fourth connector URL; scanned pages go through an OCR queue (approve before text/images leave the site). See docs/RAG.md. Legal Intelligence is an opt-in fictional fixture POC; see docs/LEGAL.md. Host file tools (host_*) are admin-only, off by default, read-only under Docker mounts, and are not Desktop Commander — see docs/HOST.md.

Related MCP server: Enterprise MCP Gateway and Tool Registry

Requirements

• Docker Engine 24+ with Compose v2

• A host that can reach ESXi / switches / NVR / Windows agents on the LAN (Zabbix server port 10051, MeshCentral 443/4433)

• Optional: Cloudflare account for the public MCP hostname

Quick start

git clone <this-repo>
cd itops-mcp-hub
cp .env.example .env

Edit .env:

1. Generate unique RBAC tokens (URL-safe, no spaces or quotes):

   openssl rand -hex 32   # IT_TOKEN
   openssl rand -hex 32   # ADMIN_TOKEN
   openssl rand -hex 32   # ACCOUNTING_TOKEN

2. Set ZABBIX_DB_PASSWORD and MeshCentral MESHCENTRAL_PASSWORD / MESHCENTRAL_API_KEY.

3. Leave CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN empty until Zero Trust is configured.

Bring the stack up (LAN/VPN mode, no tunnel):

docker compose up -d
./scripts/smoke-test.sh

smoke-test.sh checks Compose health, Bearer-only RBAC, OAuth discovery, and MCP initialize on the LAN port. It does not print tokens.

First boot of Zabbix Postgres schema can take a couple of minutes. Watch:

docker compose ps
docker compose logs -f zabbix-server zabbix-web nginx mcp-hub-it

Gateway status page (LAN): http://<compose-host>:9080/

Cloudflare Tunnel (public MCP URL)

docker compose --profile tunnel up -d

cloudflared is distroless and expects a real CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN. Do not start this profile until the token is set. Image pin is cloudflare/cloudflared:2026.9.1 — after pulling a newer compose file, recreate only that service:

docker compose --profile tunnel pull cloudflared
docker compose --profile tunnel up -d cloudflared

First-run: Zabbix API token

The MCP Zabbix server authenticates with a Zabbix API token (Bearer), not the UI password.

1. Open http://<host>:9443 and log in as Admin.

2. Change the Admin password; set ZABBIX_WEB_PASSWORD in .env to match.

3. User menu → API tokens → Create token mcp-gateway.

4. Put the secret into ZABBIX_API_TOKEN and recreate the Zabbix MCP container:

   docker compose up -d --force-recreate sub-mcp-zabbix

Alternatively, after the UI is up:

node scripts/create-zabbix-api-token.mjs
# paste the printed value into ZABBIX_API_TOKEN

Create host groups that match how you filter devices (ESXi, Switches, CCTV, Windows servers, …). zabbix_get_device_status searches group names.

First-run: MeshCentral

1. Open https://<host>:9444 (self-signed certificate on a fresh volume).

2. Create the account that matches MESHCENTRAL_USER / MESHCENTRAL_PASSWORD.

3. Set MESHCENTRAL_ALLOW_NEW_ACCOUNTS=false and recreate meshcentral after the first admin exists.

4. Install MeshAgents on Windows / Linux / ESXi management jump hosts as needed.

5. meshcentral_get_inventory reads the cached node list over /control.ashx (action: "nodes"). CPU/RAM are returned when MeshCentral already stored them on the node object; they are not probed live.

6. meshcentral_run_shell uses runcommands (PowerShell on Windows, POSIX shell otherwise) and is exposed only on the admin hub.

MESHCENTRAL_API_KEY is used as the control-channel password when MESHCENTRAL_PASSWORD is empty. Prefer a dedicated MeshCentral service user. Authentication is the MeshCentral x-meshauth header (base64(user),base64(pass)).

Internal TLS to https://meshcentral:443 uses a self-signed cert. Keep MESHCENTRAL_TLS_INSECURE=true unless you mounted a real certificate into meshcentral-data.

Cloudflare Zero Trust

This is the public path for AI clients. MeshCentral agents and Zabbix pollers stay on the LAN; only the MCP gateway is published.

1. Tunnel

1. Zero Trust → Networks → Tunnels → Create a locally managed tunnel, or fill .env.xx from .env.xx.example and run ./scripts/create-cloudflare-tunnel-token.sh (writes the token into .env.xx, never prints it).

2. Copy CLOUDFLARE_TUNNEL_TOKEN into .env.

3. Public hostname, for example mcp.example.com:

   • Type: HTTP

   • URL: http://nginx:80

   • The connector runs inside infra-net, so it must use the Compose service name nginx, not a host port.

4. docker compose --profile tunnel up -d

Set PUBLIC_MCP_ORIGIN=https://mcp.example.com (the same public hostname) so ChatGPT/Grok OAuth discovery advertises the real URL. Then recreate mcp-oauth and nginx.

Optional origin settings in the hostname:

• HTTP Host Header: mcp.example.com

• Disable chunked encoding: off (SSE needs chunked transfer)

• No extra origin TLS (nginx listens HTTP on 80)

2. Access application (service tokens)

1. Zero Trust → Access → Applications → Add Self-hosted.

2. Application domain: mcp.example.com (include /mcp* if you split policies).

3. Identity: Service Auth (and optionally your IdP for humans).

4. Create a Service Token (Client ID + Client Secret).

5. Policy: Service Token is valid, then allow.

Cloudflare consumes the service token headers at the edge. Configure the application to forward these headers to origin (Access → Application → Settings / Overview, depending on the dashboard version):

If Access strips Authorization, Nginx will 401 every MCP call. Add Authorization to the allowed/forwarded header list, or put the MCP Bearer token in a second Access-approved header and change Nginx — this repo expects Authorization: Bearer <IT_TOKEN|ADMIN_TOKEN|ACCOUNTING_TOKEN>.

Create two Access service tokens if you want to rotate IT and Admin Cloudflare identities independently of the MCP RBAC tokens.

3. SSE through Cloudflare

Nginx already sets proxy_buffering off, gzip off, X-Accel-Buffering: no, and 1-hour proxy timeouts. In the tunnel hostname, do not enable extra buffering or “HTTP/2 to origin” if SSE stalls; HTTP/1.1 to nginx is the safe origin protocol.

Team trial: ChatGPT / Grok (read-only)

ขณะรอ ai-tools-mcp (ชั้นอนุมัติคำสั่ง privileged) ทีมทดลองบน ChatGPT / Grok ได้ เฉพาะเส้น IT

• URL: https://<tunnel-host>/mcp/it/mcp — เลือก OAuth (อย่าเลือก Token ใน ChatGPT ถ้าต้องการหน้าเว็บ)

• ครั้งแรกเบราว์เซอร์เปิด https://<tunnel-host>/authorize ให้วาง IT_TOKEN เหมือน ai-collaboration-mcp

• ตั้ง PUBLIC_MCP_ORIGIN=https://<tunnel-host> ใน .env แล้ว recreate mcp-oauth + nginx

• ห้าม ADMIN_TOKEN และห้าม /mcp/admin/ สำหรับทีมทดลอง

• ทีมบัญชีใช้เส้นแยก https://<tunnel-host>/mcp/accounting/mcp + ACCOUNTING_TOKEN + scope mcp:accounting — ดู docs/EXPRESS.md

• ขั้นตอนละเอียดอยู่ที่ docs/TEAM-CONNECT.md

meshcentral_run_shell ยังปิดสำหรับทีมทดลองจนกว่าจะมี payload-hash approval + human queue + audit

MCP client configuration

Replace host, tokens, and Cloudflare service-token values. Claude Desktop still uses the legacy SSE transport (/sse). Newer clients can use Streamable HTTP (/mcp).

Claude Desktop / SSE (IT role)

claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "itops-it": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.example.com/mcp/it/sse",
        "--header",
        "Authorization: Bearer ${IT_TOKEN}",
        "--header",
        "CF-Access-Client-Id: ${CF_ACCESS_CLIENT_ID}",
        "--header",
        "CF-Access-Client-Secret: ${CF_ACCESS_CLIENT_SECRET}"
      ]
    }
  }
}

If your client supports URL + headers natively:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "itops-it": {
      "url": "https://mcp.example.com/mcp/it/sse",
      "transport": "sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer IT_TOKEN_HERE",
        "CF-Access-Client-Id": "CLIENT_ID.access",
        "CF-Access-Client-Secret": "CLIENT_SECRET"
      }
    },
    "itops-admin": {
      "url": "https://mcp.example.com/mcp/admin/sse",
      "transport": "sse",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ADMIN_TOKEN_HERE",
        "CF-Access-Client-Id": "CLIENT_ID.access",
        "CF-Access-Client-Secret": "CLIENT_SECRET"
      }
    }
  }
}

Streamable HTTP

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "itops-accounting": {
      "url": "https://mcp.example.com/mcp/accounting/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ACCOUNTING_TOKEN_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Operations notes

• Rotate IT_TOKEN / ADMIN_TOKEN / ACCOUNTING_TOKEN by changing .env and docker compose up -d --force-recreate nginx mcp-oauth.

• Do not publish mcp-hub-*, sub-mcp-*, or zabbix-db to the internet.

• meshcentral_run_shell runs as SYSTEM/root (runAsUser: 0) on the agent. Treat ADMIN_TOKEN like production break-glass.

• host_* stays off until HOST_ENABLED=true. Even then it is read-only and jailed to mounted folders — not a host shell.

• After changing MeshCentral hostname or published HTTPS port, update config.json in the meshcentral-data volume (aliasPort / cert) so agent download URLs stay correct.

• Logs are JSON lines from the Node services and json-file rotated at 10 MB × 3.

Nested Docker / CI hosts

If containers start but Nginx cannot reach mcp-hub-* (SSE hangs after a 200 auth, ping between containers fails), the kernel is filtering bridged traffic:

sudo sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=0
sudo sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables=0

This is a host setting, not a Compose service setting. Normal bare-metal or VM Docker installs already have working inter-container connectivity.
