Quick Install

pip install azure-finops-mcp

Then add it to your MCP client config using the installed command — no cloning needed:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "azure-finops": {
      "command": "azure-finops-mcp",
      "env": {
        "AZURE_ALLOWED_SUBSCRIPTIONS": "sub-id-1,sub-id-2",
        "AZURE_DEFAULT_SUBSCRIPTION": "sub-id-1"
      }
    }
  }
}

See the Client Configuration section below for per-client config file locations.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.11+
  • Azure CLI installed and logged in (az login)

Azure RBAC Permissions

The identity running this server (your user, a service principal, or a managed identity) needs three roles assigned on each subscription you want to query:

Assign via Azure CLI

SUBSCRIPTION_ID="<your-subscription-id>"
PRINCIPAL_ID="<object-id-of-user-sp-or-managed-identity>"

for ROLE in "Cost Management Reader" "Reader" "Monitoring Reader"; do
  az role assignment create \
    --assignee "$PRINCIPAL_ID" \
    --role "$ROLE" \
    --scope "/subscriptions/$SUBSCRIPTION_ID"
done

Repeat for each subscription listed in AZUREALLOWEDSUBSCRIPTIONS.

Local development (your own user)

az login
az account set --subscription "<your-subscription-id>"

# Check your object ID
az ad signed-in-user show --query id -o tsv

Your user already has these roles if you're a subscription Owner or Contributor. If not, ask your Azure admin to assign them.

Managed Identity (Container Apps deployment)

After deploying with deploy.sh, the script automatically assigns these three roles to the Container App's system-assigned managed identity on each allowed subscription. No credentials or secrets are needed — DefaultAzureCredential picks up the managed identity automatically at runtime.

Install

git clone <your-repo-url> azure-finops-mcp
