storedge-mcp

The first MCP server for StorEdge (Storable Edge) - the self-storage management platform that 5,000+ storage facilities rely on.

Read and write tenants, units, leads, ledgers, move-ins/outs, insurance, tasks, and surcharge calculations for a self-storage facility - straight from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.

Why this exists

StorEdge is the operations backbone for tens of thousands of self-storage facilities (under the Storable / Red Nova Labs umbrella). Its REST API at api.storedgefms.com powers tenant management, lead tracking, billing, insurance enrollment, task workflows, and move-in/out pipelines.

The existing integration options all require building OAuth 1.0 signing + paginated list handling + typed-error mapping from scratch every time:

• Tray.ai connector - locked inside Tray's walled garden, no MCP, no local-first.

• Twilio integration - single-purpose, voice-channel only.

• Java/PHP/.NET sample clients (rednovalabs/storedge-api-client-*) - boilerplate code, no Claude tool surface.

• No first-party MCP server - StorEdge has not shipped one.

storedge-mcp is the open MCP surface. One stdio call away, agents can answer "what 10x10 units are available right now?", "create a reservation for unit A-12", "show me who's past due this week", and "calculate the surcharge for a $125 Visa payment".

Quick start

pip install -e .
export STOREDGE_CONSUMER_KEY=...      # from StorEdge dashboard
export STOREDGE_CONSUMER_SECRET=...   # from StorEdge dashboard
export STOREDGE_FACILITY_ID=<uuid>    # optional; tools accept it as arg too

Auth

OAuth 1.0 one-legged (RFC 5849). Get your consumer key + secret from StorEdge dashboard → Corporate → Settings → API.

storedge-mcp ships its own OAuth 1.0 signer - not authlib's - because authlib's stock OAuth1Auth strips JSON request bodies during signing (silently breaking POST/PATCH/PUT). Our signer computes oauth_body_hash for non-form bodies and includes it in the signature per RFC 5849 §3.4.1.3.

Architecture

Built on industry-leading patterns from encode/httpx, stripe-python, lepture/authlib, boto3, pytest-dev/pytest, and astral-sh/ruff:

• Shared httpx.AsyncClient with pooling + transport-level retries.

• Typed exception hierarchy (StoredgeAuthError, StoredgeNotFoundError, StoredgeRateLimitError, StoredgeAPIError, StoredgeConnectionError) carrying structured error_code (from StorEdge's meta.error_code envelope) and request_id.

• Application-level retry with exponential backoff + full jitter on 429/5xx, honoring Retry-After.

• isError-compliance - every tool re-raises on failure so FastMCP sets isError: true on the wire (Blackwell audit / MCPTox).

• JSONL audit logging via STOREDGE_AUDIT_LOG env var (or stderr default) - every tool call emits a structured record with redaction for password/api_key/token fields.

• Property-based tests (Hypothesis) for JSON round-trips.

• respx for httpx mocking - no live API calls in tests.

See engineering-playbook.md for the full pattern reference.
