ServiceNow MCP

A compact Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants (Claude, and any MCP-compatible client) to a ServiceNow instance. Twelve focused tools covering the essentials: Table API CRUD, aggregates, incident lifecycle, CMDB queries, knowledge search, and user lookup.

This is the limited public edition of a larger private toolset by Vikram Karety.

Tools

Tool What it does
list_records Query any table with encoded queries, field selection, and pagination
get_record Fetch a single record by sys_id
create_record Insert into any table
update_record Patch any record by sys_id
delete_record Delete a record by sys_id
aggregate_records Count records, optionally grouped by a field
create_incident Create an incident with common fields
update_incident Update by number or sys_id, append comments or work notes
search_knowledge Full-text search across published knowledge articles
cmdb_query Query configuration items by CI class
get_user Look up a user by user_name, email, or sys_id
instance_info Build name, version, and the authenticated user

Setup

Requires Node.js 18+ and a ServiceNow instance (a free Personal Developer Instance works).

cd "ServiceNow/ServiceNow MCP"
npm install
npm run build
