What you can do with it

Once an MCP client is connected, an agent can:

• Author Rego. Generate, format, and refactor policies. The server runs the real opa fmt and opa parse so output is byte-identical to what you'd get on the command line, and regal (optional) surfaces idiomatic suggestions.
• Evaluate against data. Run a query against a policy and an input document. Optional --explain, --profile, and --coverage flags surface execution traces, hot rules, and per-line coverage.
• Debug a deny. rego_explain_decision walks the agent through every rule that fired (and every one that didn't), so it can answer "why was this rejected" without you reading the trace by hand.
• Manage policies on a running OPA. List, get, put, delete policies on an OPA server through its REST API. Works against a local opa run --server or a production deployment with bearer-token auth.
• Build & sign bundles. Package a directory of policies into a deployable bundle, optionally signing it. Output is a regular .tar.gz the agent can hand to your delivery system.
• Lint. rego_lint runs Regal across a directory or a single file and returns categorized findings (style, bugs, performance, idioms).

A walk-through of a typical session lives in Cookbook.

Why this MCP

OPA already has a perfectly good CLI and REST API. So why an MCP wrapper?

• Schema-shaped tool surface. An agent calling rego_eval gets a validated input schema, a structured output envelope, and stable error codes, instead of parsing free-form CLI text and inventing its own failure taxonomy. That alone makes Rego usable to an agent the way a language server makes a language usable to an IDE.
• Higher-level helpers. rego_explain_decision, rego_generate_test_skeleton, rego_describe_policy, and rego_suggest_fix compose the lower-level primitives into the tasks agents are actually asked to do. They don't exist in the OPA CLI.
• Curated knowledge. The bundled MCP resources expose the OPA built-in function catalog, the official Rego style guide (formatted for LLMs), and a curated pattern library covering RBAC, ABAC, Kubernetes admission, IaC gates, API authz, and rate limiting, so the agent has authoritative context without needing to scrape it.
• Safety boundaries the agent can rely on. Path allow-list, subprocess timeouts, response-size caps, and an explicit HTTP_SEND_BLOCKED error for the dangerous OPA built-ins. Defaults are conservative; running the server doesn't quietly grant the agent more reach than the operator intended.

If you've ever watched an agent fight opa eval's argument order, you'll recognize the gap this fills.

Install

The server runs locally over stdio. Pick the install path that matches your client.

Claude Desktop

Edit claude_desktop_config.json directly (or copy from examples/claude-desktop.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opa": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@orygn/opa-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OPA_BINARY": "/usr/local/bin/opa",
        "REGAL_BINARY": "/usr/local/bin/regal",
        "OPA_URL": "http://localhost:8181",
        "OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS": "/path/to/your/policies"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the /usr/local/bin/... paths with your real ones. See the first-time install gotcha below. Windows users substitute C:\\path\\to\\opa.exe.

Or download opa-mcp.mcpb from the latest release and double-click it.

Alternatively, use the Smithery one-liner:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @orygn/opa-mcp --client claude

Claude Code (CLI)

Register the server for the current project with claude mcp add:

claude mcp add \
  --env OPA_BINARY=/usr/local/bin/opa \
  --env REGAL_BINARY=/usr/local/bin/regal \
  --env OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS=/path/to/your/policies \
  opa -- npx -y @orygn/opa-mcp

This writes the config into .mcp.json at your project root and is picked up automatically on every claude session in that directory. Add --scope user to register it globally instead.

Replace the paths with your real absolute paths (same caveat as Claude Desktop above). On Windows use C:\path\to\opa.exe syntax.

Persistent context and auto-checks for policy repos. If you work in an OPA policy repo regularly, two extra files remove repetitive setup from every session:

• examples/CLAUDE.md -- copy to your repo root or .claude/CLAUDE.md. Claude Code loads it every session, so the agent always knows which tools to use and what conventions apply.
• examples/claude-code-hook.json -- merge the hooks block into .claude/settings.json. Runs opa check automatically after any .rego file is written, so syntax errors surface immediately without a manual tool call.

Cursor

Drop examples/cursor.json into either .cursor/mcp.json (project-scoped) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (user-scoped).

VS Code (GitHub Copilot Chat)

Drop examples/vscode.json into .vscode/mcp.json, or paste the servers block into your user settings.json under mcp.servers.

Windsurf, Zed, and others

See examples/ for a full set of drop-in configs.

Manual install (any MCP client)

npm install -g @orygn/opa-mcp
opa-mcp --version

then point your client at the opa-mcp binary.

Docker

docker pull orygn/opa-mcp:latest
docker run --rm -i \
  -v /path/to/your/policies:/policies:ro \
  -e OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS=/policies \
  orygn/opa-mcp

The image is multi-arch (linux/amd64, linux/arm64), bundles pinned versions of opa and regal, and runs as a non-root user. No host install of OPA or Regal is required.

⚠ First-time install gotcha (read this if you used npx or the global install)

If your client's PATH doesn't include the directory where opa lives (this happens with Claude Desktop on Windows and macOS by default), the server boots fine but every tool call returns OPA_BINARY_NOT_FOUND.

Fix: add OPA_BINARY and REGAL_BINARY env entries to your client config with the absolute path to each binary. The example configs under examples/ ship with placeholder paths you replace. Find the real paths with:

which opa && which regal                                    # macOS / Linux

Get-Command opa, regal | Select-Object Source              # Windows

This does not affect the Docker or MCPB install paths; those ship opa and regal inside the bundle and bypass PATH entirely. See Troubleshooting for full detail.

Configuration

The server reads its configuration from environment variables. Every variable is optional; defaults are sensible for a local OPA on http://localhost:8181.

Variable	Default	Purpose
OPA_URL	http://localhost:8181	Base URL of an OPA REST endpoint, used by opa_* tools.
OPA_TOKEN	(unset)	Bearer token for OPA, if your instance requires auth. Treated as a secret. Never echoed in logs or tool responses.
OPA_BINARY	opa (on PATH)	Path to the opa CLI, used by rego_* tools.
REGAL_BINARY	regal (on PATH)	Path to the regal linter. Only required by rego_lint.
CONFTEST_BINARY	conftest (on PATH)	Path to the conftest binary. Only required by conftest_* tools. Returns CONFTEST_NOT_FOUND if absent.
OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS	(unset)	Comma- or semicolon-separated list of directories the server is allowed to read policies from. When unset, file-based tools refuse to read from disk.
OPA_MCP_LOG_FILE	<tmpdir>/orygn-opa-mcp.log	Path the server appends logs to. The server never writes to stdout; that channel is reserved for the MCP protocol.
OPA_MCP_LOG_LEVEL	info	One of debug, info, warn, error.
OPA_MCP_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES	100000	Hard cap on a single tool response. Larger payloads are truncated with a __truncated: true marker.
OPA_MCP_TIMEOUT_MS	30000	Hard timeout for any spawned subprocess (opa, regal). After this, the child gets SIGTERM and then SIGKILL.
OPA_MCP_HTTP_TIMEOUT_MS	15000	Timeout for HTTP requests to the OPA REST API.

Paths in OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS and the *_BINARY variables must be absolute. Relative paths and missing binaries are rejected with structured errors.

Tool reference

Every tool returns a JSON envelope:

{ "ok": true, "data": { ... }, "warnings": [ ... ] }
{ "ok": false, "error": { "code": "INVALID_REGO", "message": "...", "hint": "...", "details": { ... } } }

Stable error codes: INVALID_INPUT, INVALID_REGO, INVALID_BUNDLE, EVAL_ERROR, OPA_BINARY_NOT_FOUND, REGAL_NOT_FOUND, REGAL_VERSION_TOO_OLD, OPA_UNREACHABLE, OPA_AUTH_FAILED, POLICY_NOT_FOUND, DATA_NOT_FOUND, PATH_NOT_ALLOWED, PATH_NOT_FOUND, DEPENDENCY_CONFLICT, NO_TESTS_FOUND, HTTP_SEND_BLOCKED, TIMEOUT, UNKNOWN_ERROR.

Category A: Authoring & static analysis

Operate on Rego source code without needing a running OPA server. Wrap opa fmt, opa parse, opa check, opa inspect, opa capabilities, opa deps, and regal.

Tool	What it does
rego_format	Format Rego source. Wraps opa fmt. Idempotent.
rego_check	Type-check and validate Rego. Wraps opa check.
rego_lint	Run Regal across a file or directory. Returns findings grouped by category. Requires regal on PATH or REGAL_BINARY set.
rego_parse_ast	Parse Rego to AST JSON. Wraps opa parse.
rego_inspect	Inspect a bundle or directory: packages, rules, annotations. Wraps opa inspect.
rego_capabilities	Return the capabilities (built-ins, future keywords) understood by the bundled OPA.
rego_deps	Static dependency analysis: rule-level data references and cross-package calls.
rego_migrate_v1	Migrate Rego v0 source to v1 syntax. Runs opa fmt --rego-v1 then validates with opa check --v1-compatible. Returns { original, migrated, changed, valid, errors }.

Featured: rego_format

// Input
{
  "source": "package x\nallow{input.user==\"admin\"}"
}

// Output (ok)

    "changed": true
  }
}

Featured: rego_check

// Input
{
  "source": "package x\nallow if y",

        "code": "rego_unsafe_var_error",
        "message": "var y is unsafe",
        "location": { "row": 2, "col": 11 }
      }
    ]
  }
}

Category B: Evaluation & testing

Run a query against a policy and input. Wrap opa eval, opa test, and opa bench.

Tool	What it does
rego_eval	Evaluate a query against a policy and input. The bread-and-butter tool.
rego_eval_with_explain	Evaluate with --explain=full and return a structured trace.
rego_eval_with_profile	Evaluate with --profile and return per-rule timing and evaluation counts.
rego_eval_with_coverage	Evaluate with --coverage and return per-line coverage.
rego_test	Run opa test over a directory. Returns pass/fail per test, with optional coverage.
rego_bench	Run opa bench and return statistical timing data.
rego_compile_query	Partially evaluate a query against a policy.
opa_exec	Batch-evaluate a decision against multiple input files. Returns per-file results with successCount and errorCount.

Featured: rego_eval

// Input
{
  "query": "data.rbac.allow",
  "source": "package rbac\nimport rego.v1\nallow if input.role == \"admin\"",
  "input": { "role": "admin" }
}

// Output
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "result": [{ "expressions": [{ "value": true, "text": "data.rbac.allow", "location": { "row": 1, "col": 1 } }] }]
  }
}

Category C: Bundle operations

Package and sign deployable bundles. Wrap opa build and opa sign.

Tool	What it does
opa_bundle_build	Build a .tar.gz bundle from a policy directory. Supports optimize and revision.
opa_bundle_sign	Sign a bundle with a private key. Returns .signatures.json content.
opa_bundle_verify	Verify the signature of a signed bundle using a public key. Returns { bundle, verified: true }.

Category D: OPA server management

Talk to a running OPA server over its REST API. Require OPA_URL to point at a reachable server.

Tool	What it does
opa_list_policies	List policies registered on the server.
opa_get_policy	Get a single policy by ID.
opa_put_policy	Upload or replace a policy.
opa_delete_policy	Delete a policy by ID.
opa_get_data	Read a path from the data hierarchy.
opa_put_data	Write to a path in the data hierarchy.
opa_patch_data	Apply a JSON Patch to the data hierarchy.
opa_delete_data	Delete a document from the data hierarchy.
opa_query_decision	POST to a /v1/data/... decision endpoint with input.
opa_compile_query	Partially evaluate a query against the running server.
opa_health	Liveness / readiness check.
opa_status	Bundle / decision-log status.
opa_config	Server configuration (without secrets).

Category E: Higher-level helpers

The differentiation surface. These compose lower-level primitives into the tasks agents are actually asked to do.

Tool	What it does
rego_explain_decision	Walk through every rule that fired (and didn't) for a given query. Wraps rego_eval_with_explain and produces a step-by-step natural-language trace.
rego_generate_test_skeleton	Given a policy, generate a _test.rego skeleton covering each rule.
rego_describe_policy	Summarize what a policy does, its inputs, decisions, and assumptions.
rego_suggest_fix	For a failed rego_check or rego_lint, propose minimal patches.
rego_coverage_gaps	Run opa test --coverage and return per-file uncovered line ranges, sorted worst first. Use threshold to focus on files below a target percentage.
rego_security_audit	Run regal lint restricted to security and bugs categories across a directory. Returns severity-grouped findings with remediation guidance.
rego_infer_input_schema	Statically analyse a policy (or directory of policies) with opa parse and return a JSON Schema describing every input.* field the policy reads. No running OPA required. Correct starting point for writing integration tests or configuring opa check --schema.
rego_fix	Run regal fix to auto-apply mechanical fixes: opa-fmt, use-rego-v1, use-assignment-operator, no-whitespace-comment, and directory-package-mismatch. Use dryRun: true to preview changes first. Returns a per-file breakdown of which rules were applied and, for directory-package-mismatch, the new path the file was moved to.
rego_format_write	Run opa fmt --write to canonically format one or more Rego files or directories in place. Use dryRun: true to list which files would change without modifying them. Validates all files parse successfully before writing any. Supports regoV1, v0Compatible, and v1Compatible flags. Only requires opa.
rego_policy_diff	Evaluate the same query against two policies in parallel and compare the results. Returns equal: true/false, the raw value from each side (resultA/resultB), and changedPaths -- dot/bracket JSON paths that differ. Each side takes inline source or a file/directory path. Useful for verifying refactor equivalence or mapping divergence between two policy versions.
rego_verify	Formally verify a property about a Rego rule using SMT solving (Microsoft Z3 via WASM). Unlike testing, this checks ALL possible inputs mathematically and either proves the property holds or returns a concrete counterexample. Supports always_true, never_true, and satisfiable property kinds. Handles equality, comparison, string built-ins (startswith, endswith, contains, regex.match), multi-clause rules, and cross-rule inlining. Reports INCONCLUSIVE for negation-as-failure and comprehensions.

Category F: Conftest (configuration policy testing)

Test Kubernetes manifests, Terraform plans, Dockerfiles, Helm charts, and any YAML/JSON/HCL/TOML/INI against Rego policies using conftest. Requires conftest on PATH or CONFTEST_BINARY set; all four tools return CONFTEST_NOT_FOUND otherwise.

Tool	What it does
conftest_test	Evaluate configuration files against policies with conftest test. Accepts file paths or inlineConfig (inline YAML/JSON/HCL/etc) and policy path or inlinePolicy source. Returns per-file pass/fail/warn results and a summary.
conftest_verify	Run test_* rules inside *_test.rego files to verify the policies themselves are correct. Equivalent to opa test but using conftest's policy-loading machinery.
conftest_pull	Pull a policy bundle from an OCI registry or Git repo into a local directory with conftest pull. The target directory need not exist; conftest creates it.
conftest_push	Package a local policy directory as an OCI artifact and push to a registry with conftest push. Registry credentials come from the host environment (docker login, ORAS keychain, etc.) -- credentials are never passed through tools.

Featured: conftest_test with inline config

// Input
{
  "inlineConfig": "apiVersion: v1\nkind: Pod\nspec:\n  containers:\n  - name: app\n    image: nginx:latest",
  "inlinePolicy": "package main\ndeny[msg] { input.spec.containers[_].image == \"nginx:latest\"; msg := \"pin your image tag\" }"
}

// Output
{
  "ok": true,
  "data": {
    "passed": false,
    "results": [
      {
        "filename": "<inline>",
        "namespace": "main",
        "successes": 0,
        "failures": [{ "msg": "pin your image tag" }],
        "warnings": [],
        "skipped": [],
        "exceptions": []
      }
    ],
    "summary": { "passed": 0, "failed": 1, "warnings": 0, "skipped": 0 }
  }
}

Category G: Meta

Tool	What it does
mcp_server_info	Return server name, version, resolved opa/regal/conftest versions, transport type, and Node.js version in one call. Useful for verifying which server instance the agent is connected to.

Prompts

Three MCP prompts ship with the server. Clients surface them as slash commands or workflow templates.

Prompt	Purpose
policy_authoring_assistant	Walks the agent through writing a new policy: ask about the decision surface, draft, review, format, lint, test.
policy_review_checklist	Review checklist for an existing policy: completeness, edge cases, performance, security pitfalls.
decision_debugging_workflow	Diagnostic flow when a decision is unexpected: gather input, run with explain, isolate the rule, propose a fix.

Resources

Three MCP resources expose curated reference data the agent can read at any time.

Resource URI	What's there
opa://builtins	Categorized OPA built-in function reference, derived at read time from opa capabilities --current. Security-sensitive functions (http.send, crypto.x509.*, opa.runtime) are flagged.
opa://style-guide	Condensed Rego style guide, formatted for LLM consumption.
opa://patterns	Curated common-pattern library: RBAC, ABAC, Kubernetes admission, IaC gates, API authz, rate limiting. Each pattern includes when-to-use, full Rego, a test, and common pitfalls.

Cookbook

A few session shapes that the tool set was designed for.

"Help me write a policy"

You: I need an authz policy: editors can read/write, viewers can only read,
     admins can do anything.

Agent: I'll draft it. (calls rego_format on a draft, then rego_check, then
       rego_lint)

Agent: Here's the policy. I've also generated a test file with cases for
       each role. (calls rego_generate_test_skeleton, then rego_test)

Agent: All 9 tests pass. Want me to save it to <path>?

"Why was this denied?"

You: This API call is being denied and I don't know why.
     [pastes input.json]

Agent: (calls rego_explain_decision against your local policy with that input)

Agent: The deny comes from rule `forbid_anonymous_writes` at line 17.
       Specifically, `input.user` is null and the request method is "POST".
       The rule fires, which causes the default deny. To allow this, you'd
       need either an authenticated user or a policy exception for this
       endpoint.

"Push this policy to staging OPA"

You: Push policies/rbac.rego to the staging OPA server, but first lint and
     test it.

Agent: (rego_lint → 2 style warnings, no errors)
       (rego_test on policies/ → all pass)
       (opa_put_policy with id="rbac" against $OPA_URL)
       (opa_get_policy to verify)

Agent: Done. Policy `rbac` is live on staging at $OPA_URL.

└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

Three things worth knowing if you're going to operate this:

1. stdout is the protocol channel. The server logs to a file via lib/logger.ts and never writes to stdout. If you see stray stdout bytes, the client disconnects; the MCP transport layer is strict.
2. No tool throws. Every tool catches its own exceptions and returns a structured { ok: false, error: ... } envelope. The agent sees a stable error vocabulary, not a stack trace.
3. Subprocesses are tightly bounded. lib/subprocess.ts runs opa and regal with shell: false, a hard timeout, and SIGTERM-then- SIGKILL escalation. There is no path through the server where an agent can construct a shell command.

Security

This server is designed to run locally, started by an MCP client on the user's own machine, communicating over stdio. It is not designed to be exposed on the network.

• File-based tools refuse to read anything outside OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS. When that variable is unset, file tools return PATH_NOT_ALLOWED.
• Subprocesses run with shell: false and a hard timeout.
• OPA_TOKEN is never echoed in tool responses or log entries.
• Releases are published with npm provenance; the Docker image is built reproducibly from the committed Dockerfile.

To report a vulnerability, follow SECURITY.md. Please do not open a public issue for security problems.

Troubleshooting

Common issues, fast fixes.

OPA_BINARY_NOT_FOUND even though opa is installed. (most common first-day issue, read this first)

MCP clients (notably Claude Desktop on Windows and macOS) launch the server with a deliberately reduced PATH that omits user-local bin directories, even ones that work fine in your interactive shell. The binary is on your machine; the spawned MCP server just can't see it.

Find the absolute path to opa:

# macOS / Linux
which opa
# → /usr/local/bin/opa  (or /opt/homebrew/bin/opa, or ~/.local/bin/opa)

# Windows
Get-Command opa | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Source
# → C:\Users\you\bin\opa.exe  (or wherever)

Then set OPA_BINARY to that absolute path in your client's MCP env block. Same for REGAL_BINARY if you use the rego_lint tool. The examples/ configs already include both env vars; just edit the placeholder paths.

This issue does not affect the Docker or MCPB install paths. Those bundle opa and regal and bypass PATH entirely.

The server starts, then the client says "disconnected."

The most likely cause is something in the process writing to stdout besides MCP frames. If you've added a custom tool, check that no library it calls prints to stdout. The fixed-position safety net is lib/logger.ts. Use it, not console.log.

PATH_NOT_ALLOWED on a file under my project.

OPA_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS is empty by default. Set it to the absolute path(s) you want the server to read from, comma-separated.

OPA_UNREACHABLE when calling opa_* tools.

OPA_URL (default http://localhost:8181) must point at a running OPA server (opa run --server ...). Check with curl $OPA_URL/health.

Regal "version too old."

We track the current Regal release. If REGAL_VERSION_TOO_OLD fires, upgrade Regal: brew upgrade regal or download from the Regal releases page.

directory-package-mismatch violation when linting inline source.

Since v0.1.1, the server auto-disables this rule for inline-source calls. If you see it, you are running an older version -- upgrade to v0.1.1 or later. To get canonical signal on this rule, lint via paths against the real on-disk file instead of passing source directly.

Where are the logs?

Default location is <OS-tmpdir>/orygn-opa-mcp.log. That's typically /tmp/orygn-opa-mcp.log on Linux/macOS or %TEMP%\orygn-opa-mcp.log on Windows. Set OPA_MCP_LOG_FILE to override, and OPA_MCP_LOG_LEVEL=debug to widen the firehose.

Development

git clone https://github.com/OrygnsCode/opa-mcp-server.git
cd opa-mcp-server
npm install
npm run dev

Common commands:

npm run lint              # ESLint
npm run typecheck         # tsc --noEmit
npm test                  # unit tests (Vitest)
npm run test:coverage     # unit + coverage report
npm run test:integration  # against real opa + regal binaries
npm run build             # compile to dist/

CI runs lint, typecheck, build, and unit tests on every push and PR across Ubuntu, macOS, and Windows on Node 20, 22, and 24. Integration tests run on Linux against pinned opa and regal releases.

Versioning & support

This project follows Semantic Versioning. The public surface for SemVer purposes is the set of registered tools, prompts, and resources, their input/output schemas, the recognized environment variables, and the CLI entry point.

Breaking changes will be:

• announced in CHANGELOG.md under a new major version,
• preceded by at least one minor release with a deprecation warning,
• accompanied by a migration note in the release announcement.

Pinned versions of the upstream toolchain (opa and regal) are treated as part of the build, not as a dependency the operator manages. The Dockerfile, MCPB bundle, and CI all use the same pin; bumps go through Dependabot or a manual PR.
