Cisco SD-WAN MCP Server
<!-- mcp-name: io.github.pcDamasceno/cisco-sdwan-mcp -->
cisco-sdwan-mcp is an MCP server for Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager (vManage), built with FastMCP.
It gives an LLM client a working view of your SD-WAN fabric — inventory, device health, control and data plane state, alarms, path quality, templates and policies — so you can ask "why is the Frankfurt branch down?" and get an answer backed by real controller data instead of a guess.
Read-only by default. The configuration-changing tools are not registered unless you explicitly enable them, and even then every call requires a human to approve it.

What you get
Plus four workflow prompts and three resources.
Three design decisions are worth knowing up front, because they shape every tool:
fields; a 200-device fabric would bury a model's context. Each tool returns the fields that answer the question and accepts detailed=true when you want everything.
- Responses are projected, not dumped. A vManage device record carries 60+
matched) alongside returned (what you got), so "3 devices are down" is never confused with "3 devices are down in the first 100 I looked at".
- Counts always accompany results. Every list reports count (what
controller or an unknown hostname returns a readable message — often with the valid options — rather than raising. The model can then correct itself or tell you exactly what to fix.
- Failures come back as answers. A wrong password, an unreachable
