irq-freeipa-mcp

MCP server for FreeIPA identity management. Provides 36 tools for managing users, groups, sudo rules, HBAC rules, certificates, hosts, and SSSD cache.

Setup

npm install
npm run build

Configure credentials:

cp config.yaml.example config.yaml   # non-sensitive settings
cp .env.example .env                  # passwords (required)
