Official registry AI and agents

Causal root-cause analysis MCP server -- 56 tools across graphs, RCA models, PyRCA.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

PYPI package rca-mcp-connector
Claude Code
claude mcp add rca-mcp -e 'RCA_MCP_API_URL=https://rcamcp-production.up.railway.app' -e 'RCA_MCP_API_KEY=<your rca_mcp_api_key>' -- uvx rca-mcp-connector==4.1.20
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)

RCA-MCP Connector

Note: the api.rca-mcp.com custom domain isn't wired up yet — point RCA_MCP_API_URL at the current backend URL below instead.

What is RCA-MCP?

The only MCP server purpose-built for causal Root Cause Analysis. 56 tools covering causal graph construction, 10 RCA model families plus 3 dedicated PyRCA algorithms (Salesforce PyRCA, BSD-3-Clause), multi-model consensus, and PDF/HTML/Excel/Markdown report generation. Works with Claude, Ollama, Groq, OpenAI, Gemini, LangChain, Cursor — 10 providers.


Quick Start (2 minutes)

rca-mcp-connector is a published PyPI package — no clone needed. Point any MCP client at it with uvx (or pip install rca-mcp-connector if you'd rather manage the install yourself):

uvx rca-mcp-connector

Get a free API key at rcamcp.datalizedglb.cloud — no credit card required — then set RCA_MCP_API_KEY in your MCP client's config (examples below).


Claude Code Setup

Add to .mcp.json in your workspace root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rca-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["rca-mcp-connector"],
      "env": {
        "RCA_MCP_API_URL": "https://rcamcp-production.up.railway.app",
        "RCA_MCP_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Ollama Setup

go install github.com/mark3labs/mcphost@latest
mcphost -m ollama:qwen3:14b --config providers/mcp-servers.json

    ) as rca_server:
        agent = Agent(name="RCA Agent", model="gpt-4o", mcp_servers=[rca_server])
        result = await agent.run("Find the root cause of the API latency spike.")
        print(result.final_output)

How do I install RCA-MCP?

It runs on your machine. In Claude Code: claude mcp add rca-mcp -e 'RCA_MCP_API_URL=https://rcamcp-production.up.railway.app' -e 'RCA_MCP_API_KEY=<your rca_mcp_api_key>' -- uvx rca-mcp-connector==4.1.20. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.

Does RCA-MCP need an API key?

Yes. It expects RCA_MCP_API_KEY, which you set in its configuration.

Is RCA-MCP open source?

Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.

Who maintains RCA-MCP?

It is published by dave1362. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
