Quick Start
1. Installation
git clone https://github.com/GoCoder7/oci-mcp-server.git
cd oci-mcp-server
npm install
2. Build
npm run build
3. Configure OCI Authentication
Copy the example environment file and configure your OCI credentials:
cp .env.example .env
Edit .env
with your OCI credentials:
OCI_TENANCY_ID=ocid1.tenancy.oc1..aaaaaaaa...
OCI_USER_ID=ocid1.user.oc1..aaaaaaaa...
OCI_KEY_FINGERPRINT=aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff:gg:hh:ii:jj:kk:ll:mm:nn:oo:pp
OCI_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=/path/to/your/oci_api_key.pem
OCI_REGION=us-ashburn-1
OCI_COMPARTMENT_ID=ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaaaa... (optional)
4. VS Code Integration
Add to your VS Code settings.json
:
{
"mcp.servers": {
"oci-mcp-server": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/oci-mcp-server/dist/simple-index.js"],
"env": {
"OCI_TENANCY_ID": "your-tenancy-id",
"OCI_USER_ID": "your-user-id",
"OCI_KEY_FINGERPRINT": "your-key-fingerprint",
"OCI_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH": "/path/to/your/oci_api_key.pem",
"OCI_REGION": "us-ashburn-1"
}
}
}
}

OCI Authentication Setup
1. Create API Key Pair
- Log into OCI Console
- Go to Profile → User Settings → API Keys
- Click "Add API Key"
- Generate or upload a key pair
- Save the private key file securely
2. Required Information
- Tenancy OCID: Found in Profile → Tenancy
- User OCID: Found in Profile → User Settings
- Key Fingerprint: Generated when creating API key
- Private Key Path: Location of your .pem file
- Region: Your preferred OCI region
- Compartment OCID: Optional default compartment
3. Set File Permissions
chmod 600 /path/to/your/oci_api_key.pem
