Robot Framework Server

CI

A local Python MCP server for analysing Robot Framework output.xml results and exposing structured failure data to Claude Desktop and Claude Code.

---

Why?

Large Robot Framework suites often produce hundreds of failures across dozens of areas. Instead of manually reading output.xml files, this MCP server:

• groups failures by shared root cause
• prioritises by business impact and severity tags
• escalates API/server errors automatically (5xx → 92, 4xx → 87, 403 → 80)
• generates interactive HTML reports with score-distribution charts
• provides Claude with full keyword traces for rapid debugging

The result: a triage session that takes minutes instead of hours.

Quick Start

# 1. Install
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install mcp

# 2. Start the server
python -m uvicorn robot_mcp_server.http_server:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000

# 3. In Claude — ingest your results, then triage
ingest_results(results_dir="/path/to/results")
generate_failure_matrix(output_path="/path/to/report.html")
get_triage_queue()

API docs available at http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs once the server is running.

Why not just inspect output.xml manually?

Manual review	Robot Framework MCP Server
Hundreds of unranked failures	Ranked triage queue — highest impact first

Connecting to Claude Desktop

Add to %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "robot-framework-failure-review": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["C:\\path\\to\\robot-framework-mcp-server\\examples\\mcp_stdio_wrapper.py"],
      "env": {
        "BASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:8000"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then restart Claude Desktop. The server appears under the + → Connectors menu.

Connecting to Claude Code

The .claude/settings.json in this repo configures the MCP server automatically for Claude Code when working in this directory.
