RollDev MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for RollDev + Magento 2 development environments. This server enables Claude and other LLMs to interact with RollDev projects, manage environments, execute commands, and initialize new Magento 2 projects seamlessly.

Features

Environment Management

• Environment Control: List, start, and stop RollDev project environments
• Service Management: Control RollDev system services (database, Redis, OpenSearch, etc.)
• Project Initialization: Create new Magento 2 projects with automatic configuration

Development Tools

• Database Operations: Execute SQL queries directly in project databases
• PHP Script Execution: Run PHP scripts within project containers
• Magento CLI Access: Execute Magento commands through roll magento
• Composer Integration: Run Composer commands in project environments

Reliability Features

• Command Timeouts: All commands have appropriate timeouts to prevent hanging (5-15 min depending on operation)
• Output File Redirection: Option to save command output to log files for later investigation

Prerequisites

• RollDev installed and configured
• Node.js 18+
• Active RollDev project environments (for some operations)

Installation

Option 1: Using NPM (Recommended)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rolldev": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@disrex/rolldev-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add this configuration to your Claude for Desktop config file:

3. Add to Claude configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rolldev": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/rolldev-mcp-server/server.js"]
    }
  }
}

3. "Stop the services for my current project"

Database Operations

4. "Run the query 'SELECT * FROM admin_user LIMIT 5' in my project"
5. "Show me all enabled modules in the database"
6. "Check the current configuration values for my store"

Magento Development

7. "Execute 'cache:flush' Magento command in my project"
8. "Run 'setup:upgrade' on my Magento installation"
9. "List all available Magento CLI commands"
