port mcp server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Port.io API, enabling Claude to interact with Port.io's developer platform capabilities using natural language.

What You Can Do With Port MCP

Transform how you work with Port.io using natural language:

Find Information Quickly

• Get entity details - "Who is the owner of service X?"
• Check on-call status - "Who is on call right now?"
• Get catalog insights - "How many services do we have in production?"

Analyze Scorecards

• Identify weak points - "Which services are failing for the gold level and why?"
• Get compliance status - "Show me all services that don't meet our security requirements"
• Improve quality - "What do I need to fix to reach the next scorecard level?"

Create Resources

• Build scorecards - "Create a new scorecard called 'Security Posture' with levels Basic, Silver, and Gold"
• Define rules - "Add a rule that requires services to have a team owner to reach the Silver level"
• Setup quality gates - "Create a rule that checks if services have proper documentation"

We're continuously expanding Port MCP's capabilities. Have a suggestion? We'd love to hear your feedback on our roadmap!
