Install Airflow in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @us-all/airflow-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

What the publisher says

From the Airflow repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

@us-all/airflow-mcp

Airflow MCP server — read DAGs, runs, task instances, log tails; trigger and clear (write-gated). Built on @us-all/mcp-toolkit.

A focused MCP for the Airflow 3.x REST API (/api/v2). Read by default; airflow-trigger-dag and airflow-clear-task are gated behind AIRFLOWALLOWWRITE=true. Auth is JWT via SimpleAuthManager — supply AIRFLOWUSERNAME + AIRFLOWPASSWORD and the server mints/refreshes the token transparently.

For deeper dbt integration (manifest parsing, run-results history, source freshness, per-column test coverage, lineage walks, custom DQ result tables), install the companion @us-all/dbt-mcp alongside.

  • 7 tools in airflow + meta categories
  • 2 MCP Prompts for DAG triage workflows
  • 1 aggregation tool that replaces the list-runs → get-task-instances combo

Install

pnpm add -D @us-all/airflow-mcp

Run

AIRFLOW_API_URL=http://airflow.example.com:8080 \
AIRFLOW_USERNAME=admin AIRFLOW_PASSWORD=... \
npx @us-all/airflow-mcp

Pass the host base only — the server prepends /api/v2 internally. A trailing /api/v1 or /api/v2 is stripped if supplied. JWT tokens are cached for the lifetime of the session and refreshed 1 minute before they expire.

The server speaks MCP stdio; wire it into Claude Desktop / Cursor / any MCP client. Set MCP_TRANSPORT=http to opt in to Streamable HTTP transport (Bearer auth, /health endpoint).

Tools

Environment variables

Tested-against schemas

  • Airflow 3.0–3.2 /api/v2 (verified against 3.2.1, current Airflow release as of 2026-05). Airflow 2.x is not supported by v0.2+ because basic auth + /api/v1 were removed; pin to @us-all/airflow-mcp@0.1.0 for Airflow 2.x deployments.

Companion server

For dbt artifact parsing, run-results history, and DQ result tables, install @us-all/dbt-mcp alongside.

Build

pnpm install
pnpm run build      # tsc → dist/
pnpm test           # vitest
pnpm run smoke      # spawns dist/index.js, calls initialize + tools/list (set env first)
