42 MCP Server
English | 日本語
42 MCP Server is a server that exposes 42's intranet API through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This enables LLM (Large Language Model) agents to safely and standardized access to 42's rich data (user information, projects, campus information, etc.).
Overview
This server abstracts requests to the 42 API and provides them in the form of resources and tools defined by MCP. It supports two transport modes, Stdio and HTTP, making it compatible with a wide range of clients from CLI tools to modern IDE extensions.
Features
- Dual Transport: Supports both Stdio and HTTP.
- 42 API Integration: Provides information about 42 users, projects, campuses, and more.
- Tools: Equipped with many useful tools such as user search and Cursus level retrieval.
Prerequisites
Setup
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/smizuoch/42-mcp-server.git cd 42-mcp-server -
Install dependencies:
npm install -
Get 42 API credentials: You need to create an OAuth application on the 42 intranet to get the client ID and secret.
- Access 42 OAuth Applications
- Log in with your 42 account
- Fill in the application details:
- Name: Enter a name for your application (e.g., "42 MCP Server")
- Redirect URI: Enter
http://localhost:8080(or any localhost URL) - Scopes: Select appropriate scopes (e.g.,
publicfor basic access)
- Click "Submit" to create the application
- Copy the generated Application ID and Secret
-
Set up environment variables: Copy
.env.exampleto create a.envfile and fill in your 42 API credentials.cp .env.example .envContents of
.envfile:42_CLIENT_ID=YOUR_42_CLIENT_ID 42_CLIENT_SECRET=YOUR_42_CLIENT_SECRETReplace
YOUR_42_CLIENT_IDwith the Application ID andYOUR_42_CLIENT_SECRETwith the Secret from step 3.
Usage
Development Mode
-
Stdio Mode: Communicates with MCP clients using standard input/output.
npm run dev -
HTTP Mode: Starts an HTTP server to communicate with MCP clients. Useful for VSCode extensions and similar tools.
npm run dev:http
Production
-
Build TypeScript:
npm run build -
Start HTTP server:
npm run startThe server will start at
http://127.0.0.1:8042.
VSCode Integration
-
Start the server in HTTP mode:
npm run dev:httpYou'll see logs like this in the terminal:
MCP HTTP server ready on port 8042 MCP endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:8042/ Health check: http://127.0.0.1:8042/health VSCode Configuration (.vscode/mcp.json): { "servers": { "42-api": { "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8042/" } } } -
Create VSCode configuration file: Create a file named
.vscode/mcp.jsonin the project root and paste the content shown in the logs above..vscode/mcp.json:{ "servers": { "42-api": { "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8042/" } } } -
After reloading VSCode, the extension will recognize the server and you can call resources and tools with prefixes like
@42-api.
