Manual Setup with VS Code

Add the following JSON block to your User Settings (JSON) file in VS Code. You can do this by pressing Ctrl + Shift + P and typing Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON).

{
  "mcp": {
    "inputs": [
      {
        "type": "promptString",
        "id": "viso_baseurl",
        "description": "VISO TRUST API Base URL",
        "default": "https://app.visotrust.com"
      },
      {
        "type": "promptString",
        "id": "viso_token",
        "description": "VISO TRUST API Token",
        "password": true
      }
    ],
    "servers": {
      "viso-mcp": {
        "command": "docker",
        "args": [
          "run",
          "-i",
          "--rm",
          "-e",
          "VISOTRUST_API_TOKEN",
          "-e",
          "VISOTRUST_API_BASEURL",
          "visotrustai/viso-mcp-server:latest"
        ],
        "env": {
          "VISOTRUST_API_BASEURL": "${input:viso_baseurl}",
          "VISOTRUST_API_TOKEN": "${input:viso_token}"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Optionally, you can add a similar example (i.e. without the mcp key) to a file called .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace. This will allow you to share the configuration with others.

💻 Development

Docker Setup

Build Docker Image

docker build -t viso-mcp-server .

Run Docker Container

docker run -i --rm -e VISOTRUST_API_TOKEN=<your-api-token> viso-mcp-server

Debugging

Install MCP Inspector

npm -g install @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

Run MCP Inspector for Testing

1. Build MCP Server Jar File

./gradlew bootJar

2. Run MCP Inspector

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector \
    -e JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=\*:5005 \
    -e VISOTRUST_API_TOKEN=<your-api-token> \
    java -jar build/libs/viso-mcp-server-<version>.jar \
    --port 8080 --host localhost

Replace <version> with the current version of the project (e.g., 1.0.0 or the version from the latest release).

CI/CD Pipeline

This project uses GitHub Actions for continuous integration and deployment. The workflow includes the following jobs:

Lint

Checks code formatting using Spotless:

./gradlew spotlessCheck

Build

Builds the application and creates a JAR file:

./gradlew build

Publish

When a new release is created:

1. Updates the project version in build.gradle to match the release tag
2. Uploads the JAR file to the GitHub release with the version from the release tag
3. Builds and pushes the Docker image to Docker Hub with tags:
   • latest
   • The release tag (e.g., v1.0.0)

Required Secrets for Publishing

To enable Docker Hub publishing, add these secrets to your GitHub repository:

• DOCKERHUB_USERNAME: Your Docker Hub username
• DOCKERHUB_TOKEN: Your Docker Hub access token

Code Formatting

This project uses Spotless with Google Java Format for code formatting. A pre-commit hook is automatically set up to ensure consistent code style.

Setup

After cloning the repository, the pre-commit hook will be automatically set up when you run any Gradle command.

Manual Formatting

To manually format all files:

./gradlew spotlessApply

To check if files are formatted correctly:

./gradlew spotlessCheck

If the pre-commit hook rejects your commit due to formatting issues, simply run ./gradlew spotlessApply to fix the formatting and then try committing again.
