@infrawise/mcp-server

Claude Code MCP server for Infrawise Azure FinOps recommendations.

What it provides

Tools exposed to Claude Code:

  • get_idle_resources — idle/zombie resources to delete or deallocate
  • get_sku_optimizations — rightsizing recommendations for overprovisioned resources
  • get_general_recommendations — purchasing model and licensing optimizations
  • get_savings_summary — aggregated savings totals across all categories

All tools accept an optional subscription_filter (subscription UUID) to scope results.

Quickstart

npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest setup

That's it. setup opens your browser for Azure sign-in, registers the MCP server with Claude Code, and confirms everything is working. Restart Claude Code when it completes.

Prerequisite: You need an active Infrawise account with at least one Azure subscription onboarded. Complete onboarding →

Useful commands

# Re-authenticate only (e.g. after switching accounts) — opens browser
npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest auth

# Pin a specific tenant
npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest auth --tenant <tenantId>

# Diagnose auth and onboarding issues with fix steps
npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest doctor

# Check that the MCP server is registered
claude mcp list

Switching accounts

Delete the cached credentials and re-authenticate:

# macOS / Linux
rm ~/.infrawise/mcp-credentials.json

# Windows (PowerShell)
Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.infrawise\mcp-credentials.json"

npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest auth

Local development

cd packages/claude-mcp
npm install
npm run build
node dist/index.js setup   # or auth / doctor

Publishing a new version

cd packages/claude-mcp
npm version patch   # or minor / major
npm publish --access public

prepublishOnly runs clean && build automatically. Verify after publishing:

npm view @infrawise/mcp-server version

Existing users re-run npx @infrawise/mcp-server@latest setup to pick up the new version — no config clearing or MCP re-registration needed.
