# Astro Private Cloud MCP server

> Connect an AI agent client to Astro Private Cloud through a governed Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool surface.

The Astro Private Cloud (APC) MCP server exposes platform operations and Airflow state to AI agent clients as a governed Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool surface. It is an additional interface to the same platform, subject to the same role-based access control (RBAC) as the APC UI and the Astro CLI, not a new control path.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Astro Private Cloud 2.2**
>
> This feature was introduced in Astro Private Cloud 2.2. To access this feature, upgrade your Astro Private Cloud installation to 2.2 or later.

## Availability

The Deployment model and ingress model determine what works on your install. See [Connect a client](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-connect.md#availability).

## Connect a client

To check availability, obtain a token, connect VS Code or Cursor, and make your first tool call, see [Connect a client to the Astro Private Cloud MCP server](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-connect.md).

## Tool reference

For every tool, its arguments, required permission, and whether it restarts a Deployment, see [Astro Private Cloud MCP server tool reference](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-tools.md).

## Skills

For the bundled skills (`debugging-dags` and `migrating-airflow-2-to-3`), how to invoke them from a prompt or through `load_skill`, and which route works in each client, see [Astro Private Cloud MCP server skills](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-skills.md).

## Enable and configure the MCP server

To enable, configure, and disable the server through Helm chart values, see [Set up and configure the Astro Private Cloud MCP server](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-setup.md).

## Runbook

For what to check when the gate rejects a caller, Laminar is unreachable, or task logs come back empty, plus the error reference and the fast disable path during an incident, see [Astro Private Cloud MCP server runbook and error reference](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-runbook.md).

## Security posture

For what the agent can reach and as whom, see [Astro Private Cloud MCP server security posture](https://astronomer.io/docs/astro-private-cloud/v-2-x/apc-mcp-server-security.md).
