Talos opinionated MCP Server

NOTE:

This project is under active development.

Motivation

Modern infrastructure often uses tools such as Terraform/OpenTofu, Ansible, and GitOps. These tools deploy and configure Talos Linux nodes and Kubernetes clusters.

The Talos MCP Server does not replace these tools. It gives AI assistants and automation agents access to information about your Talos clusters.

The default tools are read-only. An optional action tool can be enabled with --allow-destructive to reboot a node.

Instead of running many talosctl commands across nodes, you can ask an AI assistant to collect and analyze the required information. Your existing automation tools remain the main source for infrastructure changes.

Overview

The server connects an MCP client, such as an AI assistant, to the Talos API (apid) and, optionally, to the Talos discovery service. It supports multiple Talos clusters and returns structured data.

You can use it to:

inspect clusters, nodes, and their Talos and Kubernetes versions
read Talos service logs and kernel logs (dmesg) of a node
review recent Talos runtime events
list cluster members from the discovery service, even when the Talos API is down
collect information before you make infrastructure changes

Keep your AI on the leash.

Talos tools

The MCP server provides the following tools:

cluster is a talosconfig context name. When it is omitted, the current context is used. Use talosclusterslist first to find the cluster names. MCP clients can discover the full input and output schemas. You can also list the tools from the command line:

talos-mcp tools --talosconfig /absolute/path/to/talosconfig

When --allow-destructive is enabled and the cluster's credential has the os:operator role, talosnodereboot accepts cluster, node, and an optional mode (default or powercycle). It returns once Talos accepts the request; it does not wait for the node to come back.

The tools available on each cluster depend on the role of its client certificate: os:reader gets the read-only tools, os:operator also gets the reboot tool.

Installation

For a local installation with Homebrew, run:

brew install sergelogvinov/tap/talos-mcp

You do not need a local installation when you use an MCP server hosted on another machine.
