<p align="center"> <strong>A comprehensive <a href="https://modelcontextprotocol.io">Model Context Protocol (MCP)</a> server that exposes the <a href="https://www.keycloak.org/docs-api/latest/rest-api/index.html">Keycloak Admin REST API</a> as typed MCP tools. 299 tools covering all API categories.</strong> </p>
Features
- Complete API coverage: All 299 Keycloak Admin REST API endpoints
- Dual transport: stdio (Claude Code) and SSE (GitHub Copilot, other MCP clients)
- Auto-authentication: Supports both password and client credentials flows with automatic token refresh
- Zero configuration tools: Each tool is self-describing with full input schemas

Installation
Option 1: Run directly with uvx (Recommended)
You can run the server directly without manual installation using astral's uv:
uvx keycloak-mcp-server
(When using uvx, you can pass environment variables inline or keep them in your MCP config file.)
Option 2: Install via pip
If you prefer a global or virtual environment installation:
pip install git+https://github.com/paoloamato2/keycloak-mcp-server.git
Option 3: Install from source (For development)
git clone https://github.com/paoloamato2/keycloak-mcp-server.git
cd keycloak-mcp-server
uv pip install -e .
Configuration
Set environment variables (or create a .env file based on .env.example):
# Required
export KEYCLOAK_URL=http://localhost:8080
# Authentication - Option A: Password flow
export KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_USERNAME=admin
export KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
# Authentication - Option B: Client credentials flow
export KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_ID=my-client
export KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET=my-secret
# Optional
export KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_REALM=master # default: master
export KEYCLOAK_VERIFY_SSL=true # default: true
Usage
Claude Code (stdio)
Add to your Claude Code MCP configuration (~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json or project-level):
{
"mcpServers": {
"keycloak": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["-m", "keycloak_mcp_server"],
"env": {
"KEYCLOAK_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_USERNAME": "admin",
"KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD": "admin"
}
}
}
}
Or if installed with uv:
{
"mcpServers": {
"keycloak": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--directory", "/path/to/keycloak-mcp-server", "python", "-m", "keycloak_mcp_server"],
"env": {
"KEYCLOAK_URL": "http://localhost:8080",
"KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_USERNAME": "admin",
"KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD": "admin"
}
}
}
}
GitHub Copilot (SSE)
Start the server with SSE transport:
python -m keycloak_mcp_server --transport sse --port 8080
Then configure in your GitHub Copilot MCP settings (VS Code settings.json):
{
"github.copilot.chat.mcpServers": {
"keycloak": {
"type": "sse",
"url": "http://localhost:8080/sse"
}
}
}
Command Line
# stdio mode (default)
python -m keycloak_mcp_server
# SSE mode
python -m keycloak_mcp_server --transport sse --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080
# Using the entry point
keycloak-mcp-server --transport sse --port 8080
Security & Production Recommendations
⚠️ SECURITY WARNING: This MCP Server registers all Keycloak Admin REST API endpoints (299 tools), including sensitive write operations (like creating/deleting users, resetting passwords, and managing realms). Do not use your master realm super-admin credentials in a production environment.
When attaching this MCP server to your AI Assistants, please strictly follow the Principle of Least Privilege:
-
Use Service Accounts (Client Credentials Flow): Avoid using the Password flow (
KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_USERNAME/KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD). Instead, create a dedicated Keycloak Client with Service Accounts Enabled, and use theKEYCLOAK_CLIENT_IDandKEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRET. -
Limit Target Realms: Do not attach the server to the
masterrealm unless specifically necessary. PointKEYCLOAK_ADMIN_REALMto the exact realm your AI assistant should manage. -
Grant Only Required Roles: Only assign the minimum necessary roles to your MCP Service Account.
- If your LLM only needs to read data: Assign only
view-users,view-clients, orview-realm. - If your LLM needs to manage users: Assign only
manage-users. - Never assign
adminorrealm-adminroles to the AI unless you are fully aware of the risks.
- If your LLM only needs to read data: Assign only
-
Always Verify SSL: Keep
KEYCLOAK_VERIFY_SSL=trueenabled in production to prevent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks. Setting it tofalseis only acceptable for local development.
Examples
Once connected, you can use natural language to interact with Keycloak:
- "List all realms" → calls
list_realms - "Create a user called john in the master realm" → calls
create_user - "Show me all clients in the production realm" → calls
list_clients - "What roles does user X have?" → calls
get_user_role_mappings - "Add the admin role to the developers group" → calls
add_group_realm_role_mappings
