# MCP Nutanix
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Nutanix Prism Central APIs through Large Language Models (LLMs).
## ⚠️ Disclaimer
**THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL PROJECT**
This project was created as a personal project to explore the capabilities of the Model Context Protocol frameworks in Go. It is:
- **NOT** an official Nutanix product or tool
- **NOT** supported, endorsed, or maintained by Nutanix
- **NOT** suitable for production environments
- **PROVIDED AS-IS** with no warranties or guarantees
**USE AT YOUR OWN RISK**: The author takes no responsibility for any issues, damages, or outages that may result from using this code.
## Overview
This MCP server allows LLMs to interact with Nutanix Prism Central by:
1. Connecting to a Prism Central instance with user credentials
2. Listing various resources (VMs, Clusters, Hosts, etc.)
3. Retrieving specific resource details via URI-based access
The implementation uses the [Prism Go Client](https://github.com/nutanix-cloud-native/prism-go-client) to communicate with Prism Central and the [MCP Go library](https://github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go) to implement the Model Context Protocol.
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Go 1.23 or higher
- Access to a Nutanix Prism Central instance
- Tools like `make` and `go fmt` for building
### Building
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/thunderboltsid/mcp-nutanix.git
cd mcp-nutanix
# Build the MCP server
make build
```
### Running
```bash
./bin/mcp-nutanix
```
The server will start and prompt for Prism Central credentials.
## Usage
Once the MCP server is running and connected to your Prism Central instance, LLMs can interact with it through the MCP protocol.
### Resource Listing
To list resources, use the appropriate tool:
```
vms
clusters
hosts
images
subnets
```
The LLM will receive a JSON list of resources that it can parse and analyze.
### Resource Access
To access a specific resource, use a resource URI:
```
vm://{uuid}
cluster://{uuid}
host://{uuid}
```
The LLM will receive detailed JSON information about the specific resource.

### Code Generation
The project uses code generation to create resource and tool handlers. To update these:
```bash
make generate
```
## Limitations
- Response size is limited by the MCP protocol
- Some resources with large response sizes may cause errors
- No pagination support in the current implementation
- Only supports read operations, no create/update/delete
