Finops Focus tools (9)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
calculate_kpiUNOFFICIAL: computes one of the KPIs from get_kpi_mapping using this server's own derived FOCUS-terms
compare_versionsThe …→… column diff — an UNOFFICIAL derivation computed by this server from the two tagged spec releases, source-cited per entry. Without `column`: the full diff (… added, … removed, … changed). With `column`: that one column's status and detail.
get_attributeFull record for one cross-cutting FOCUS attribute (naming/formatting conventions like currency codes, datetime format, key-value format): description, normative requirements, exceptions. Look up by the `attribute` parameter — an attribute ID or its lowercase slug, e.g. 'datetime_format'. Attribute names can change between versions; discover current slugs via search_focus with entity_types=['attrib
get_columnFull record for one FOCUS column: description, content constraints (type, feature level, nulls, data type, value format), allowed values, normative requirements, and the version it was introduced in. Look up by the `column` parameter — a Column ID or its lowercase slug, e.g. 'BilledCost'.
get_kpi_mappingUNOFFICIAL, derived-by-this-server mapping from framework KPIs (effective savings rate, commitment
get_requirementsThe normative MUST/SHOULD bullets for one column, verbatim from the spec text (plus source_url/license attribution). Use get_column for the full record.
list_columnsAll columns for one spec version, optionally filtered by feature_level (Mandatory|Conditional|Recommended) or column_type (Metric|Dimension); the extra enum value 'unknown' is a crawler parse fallback that matches no column in the shipped data. Default limit returns the full list in one call (…).
list_versionsEvery FOCUS spec version this server serves, with its source git tag and column/attribute counts. Start here to discover valid `version` values for the other tools. No parameters.
search_focusRanked keyword search over one spec version's columns and attributes. Returns slug + uri per hit — feed into get_column/get_attribute. Use when you don't already know a Column ID.

What the publisher says
From the Finops Focus repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
finops-framework-mcp
Three unofficial MCP servers that give AI assistants a structured, sourced interface to published FinOps and AI-cost guidance, so an assistant answers with the publishers' actual text and formulas instead of improvising:
All three are read-only (an agent can read guidance, never change your practice or data) and offline once installed (no network access at runtime, no telemetry). Use any one on its own; together they cover what good looks like, which billing columns prove it, and what drives AI token cost.
Start here: the usage guide
aaronmsoto.github.io/finops-framework-mcp is a free, no-install walkthrough written for FinOps practitioners as much as engineers. It explains what each server does, connects them to Claude in a couple of minutes, and works through five examples, from a showback report to whether prompt caching is paying off. Every number and quote in it comes from a real run of these servers. See Documentation for the page list.
Why this exists
Ask an AI assistant "how mature is our Allocation practice?", "which FOCUS columns feed Effective Savings Rate?" or "is our prompt caching paying off?" without these servers, and it will happily improvise a plausible answer. With them, every response is the publisher's own text and formulas, structured for an assistant to read, with the source URL and license attached.
Anything a server had to work out itself is labeled, never passed off as published guidance:
cross-version diff are marked UNOFFICIAL (official: false).
- The FOCUS server's KPI-to-column mapping, computed KPI values and
answer, because most Tokenomics Foundation guidance is a working draft or release candidate. Its curated crosswalk is unofficial and only appears with FINOPSMCPEXPERIMENTAL=1.
- The tokenomics server states each source's publication status on every
relationships between capabilities, no maturity levels beyond the Foundation's Crawl/Walk/Run.
- The framework server is official-only out of the box: no invented
Quickstart
All three are on npm, so there is nothing to clone or build. Each package ships its own data and runs offline. Node >= 22 is the only requirement.
npx -y finops-framework-mcp
npx -y finops-focus-mcp
npx -y tokenomics-overview-mcp(-y skips npx's first-run install prompt, which can hang non-interactive MCP clients. Pin a version with, for example, npx -y finops-focus-mcp@0.2.)
