Which integrations are available for this server?

Provides tools to interact with a Rocket.Chat workspace, including sending and reading messages, direct messages, file uploads/downloads, channel management, and user search.

rocketchat-mcp

An MCP server for Rocket.Chat. It lets MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) send and read messages, send DMs, search history, upload/download files, and manage channels on a Rocket.Chat workspace over stdio.

Actively maintained fork of elieworkspace/rocketchat-mcp, adding Personal Access Token auth, more tools, and reliability/security improvements. See NOTICE for attribution.

Tools

`send_message_in_channel`	Send a message to a channel
`send_direct_message`	Send a direct message to a user
`delete_message`	Delete a message (your own, unless the role has force-delete)
`get_channel_messages`	Read history of a channel/group/DM; supports `offset` paging and accepts a room ID or name
`search_messages`	Keyword search within a room (`chat.search`)
`get_unread`	List rooms with unread messages and their latest content

Authentication

A normal chat user is enough for the core tools. A Personal Access Token is recommended — it keeps the token out of process arguments:

Variable	Description
`ROCKETCHAT_SERVER_URL`	Workspace URL, e.g. `https://chat.example.com`
`ROCKETCHAT_USER_ID`	Your Rocket.Chat user ID
`ROCKETCHAT_AUTH_TOKEN`	Personal Access Token
`ROCKETCHAT_WATCHDOG_INTERVAL`	(optional) orphan-watchdog interval in seconds, default `60`

Username/password is also supported via --username / --password. Use --no-verify-ssl for self-signed certificates.

Usage

Run with uvx (no clone)

uvx --from git+https://github.com/millerchou/rocketchat-mcp rocketchat-mcp \
  --server-url https://chat.example.com

Once published to PyPI this becomes simply uvx rocketchat-mcp.

Reliability

Persistent HTTP connection pool, room-endpoint caching, log rotation (1 MB), and an orphan watchdog that self-exits when the MCP client process dies.
