The Opscotch MCP Server gives AI assistants direct access to Opscotch knowledge and authoring tools.
The MCP server exposes structured tools that allow AI assistants to understand, author, validate, and work with Opscotch applications and workflows.
The server is designed for developers using AI coding assistants, and automation engineers who want to build or maintain Opscotch solutions using natural language.
An AI connected to the server can perform tasks such as:
- answer questions about the Opscotch platform
- explain APIs, configuration, and runtime behaviour
- author workflows and bootstrap configurations
- validate workflow structure and configuration
- assist with packaging, deployment, and licensing
- provide guidance using the latest platform capabilities
- generate examples and implementation patterns
With MCP, the AI can use purpose-built tools that understand the Opscotch platform, resulting in responses that are:
- more accurate
- aware of current platform features
- capable of structured authoring rather than just producing text
- less prone to hallucinating APIs or configuration
Typical use cases
- "Create a workflow that polls an HTTP endpoint every minute."
- "Why won't this bootstrap validate?"
- "Generate a workflow that receives webhooks and forwards them to AWS SQS."
- "Explain this JavaScript processor."
- "Help migrate this workflow to the latest Opscotch version."
- "Help me generate a signed package for deployment."
The server is intended for:
- AI coding assistants
- IDE integrations
- CLI agents
- automation developers
- DevOps and platform engineers
- custom AI applications that need authoritative knowledge of Opscotch
