Apollo Config

MCP server for Apollo Config Center using portal username/password login, implemented with FastMCP.

Install

pip install mcp-apollo-config

Local editable install:

pip install -e .

Auth Mode

The plugin authenticates by portal session:

1. POST /signin with username/password
2. Receives login session cookie (SESSION or JSESSIONID)
3. Uses portal management APIs under /apps/{appId}/envs/{env}/...

No OpenAPI token is required.

Governance Mode

• readonly (default): query only
• editable: query + edit (requires --operator)

MCP Configuration

Configure the server in your MCP client with command + args:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apollo": {
      "command": "mcp-apollo-config",
      "args": [
        "--portal-url", "http://apollo-portal.example.com",
        "--username", "your.username",
        "--password", "your.password",
        "--governance-mode", "readonly",
        "--default-app-id", "your-app-id",
        "--default-env", "DEV",
        "--default-cluster", "default",
        "--default-namespace", "application"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Full Parameters

Required:

• --portal-url or APOLLO_PORTAL_URL
• --username or APOLLO_USERNAME
• --password or APOLLO_PASSWORD

Optional:

• --login-submit or APOLLO_LOGIN_SUBMIT
• --governance-mode or APOLLO_GOVERNANCE_MODE: readonly|editable
• --operator or APOLLO_OPERATOR (required in editable mode)
• --default-app-id or APOLLO_DEFAULT_APP_ID
• --default-env or APOLLO_DEFAULT_ENV (for example DEV, TEST)
• --default-cluster or APOLLO_DEFAULT_CLUSTER (default: default)
• --default-namespace or APOLLO_DEFAULT_NAMESPACE

• --log-level or MCP_APOLLO_LOG_LEVEL: DEBUG|INFO|WARN|ERROR (default: WARN)
• --debug-http or MCP_APOLLO_DEBUG_HTTP=true

Tools

• apollo_get_namespace_configs: query all key/value items under a namespace/environment/cluster with pagination controls (pageSize, maxItems).
• apollo_get_key: query one config key under a namespace/environment/cluster.
• apollo_edit_key (editable mode only): create or update one key and return the updated item.

Tests

Local tests use a mock Apollo portal server and do not require real credentials or network access.

python -m unittest discover -s tests -p "test_*.py"

Covered scenarios:

• tools/list in readonly and editable mode
• apollo_get_key
• apollo_get_namespace_configs
• apollo_edit_key
• Portal session login + cookie flow

Notes

• The management API path includes /envs/{env}. Set --default-env or pass env in tool arguments.
• The server is built on FastMCP and runs in stdio transport mode.
• After editing a key, Apollo release may still be needed before clients see the change.
• Avoid keeping DEBUG logs enabled in production for long periods.
