refactor: bundle MCP servers inside plugins for cache compatibility
Claude Code only caches the plugin directory when installed from a
marketplace, not parent directories. This broke the shared mcp-servers/
architecture because relative paths like ../../mcp-servers/ resolved
to non-existent locations in the cache.
Changes:
- Move gitea and wikijs MCP servers into plugins/projman/mcp-servers/
- Move netbox MCP server into plugins/cmdb-assistant/mcp-servers/
- Update .mcp.json files to use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/mcp-servers/
- Update setup.sh to handle new bundled structure
- Add netbox.env config template to setup.sh
- Update CLAUDE.md and CANONICAL-PATHS.md documentation
This ensures plugins work correctly when installed and cached.

# NetBox MCP Server
|
||||
|
||||
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for comprehensive NetBox API integration with Claude Code.
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This MCP server provides Claude Code with full access to the NetBox REST API, enabling infrastructure management, documentation, and automation workflows. It covers all major NetBox application areas:
|
||||
|
||||
- **DCIM** - Sites, Locations, Racks, Devices, Interfaces, Cables, Power
|
||||
- **IPAM** - IP Addresses, Prefixes, VLANs, VRFs, ASNs, Services
|
||||
- **Circuits** - Providers, Circuits, Terminations
|
||||
- **Virtualization** - Clusters, Virtual Machines, VM Interfaces
|
||||
- **Tenancy** - Tenants, Contacts, Contact Assignments
|
||||
- **VPN** - Tunnels, IKE/IPSec Policies, L2VPN
|
||||
- **Wireless** - Wireless LANs, Links, Groups
|
||||
- **Extras** - Tags, Custom Fields, Webhooks, Config Contexts, Audit Log
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Clone and Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd /path/to/mcp-servers/netbox
|
||||
python -m venv .venv
|
||||
source .venv/bin/activate # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Configure Credentials
|
||||
|
||||
Create the system-level configuration file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mkdir -p ~/.config/claude
|
||||
cat > ~/.config/claude/netbox.env << 'EOF'
|
||||
NETBOX_API_URL=https://your-netbox-instance/api
|
||||
NETBOX_API_TOKEN=your-api-token-here
|
||||
NETBOX_VERIFY_SSL=true
|
||||
NETBOX_TIMEOUT=30
|
||||
EOF
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Getting a NetBox API Token:**
|
||||
1. Log into your NetBox instance
|
||||
2. Navigate to your profile (top-right menu)
|
||||
3. Go to "API Tokens"
|
||||
4. Click "Add a token"
|
||||
5. Copy the generated token
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Register with Claude Code
|
||||
|
||||
Add to your Claude Code MCP configuration (`~/.config/claude/mcp.json` or project `.mcp.json`):
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Use the dcim_list_devices tool with site_id filter to see all devices at site 5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Create a new prefix and allocate IPs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Use ipam_create_prefix to create 10.0.1.0/24
|
||||
2. Use ipam_list_available_ips with the prefix ID to see available addresses
|
||||
3. Use ipam_create_available_ip to auto-allocate the next IP
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Document a new server
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Use dcim_create_device to create the device
|
||||
2. Use dcim_create_interface to add network interfaces
|
||||
3. Use ipam_create_ip_address to assign IPs to interfaces
|
||||
4. Use extras_create_journal_entry to add notes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Audit recent changes
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Use extras_list_object_changes to see recent modifications in NetBox
|
||||
```

|

## API Coverage
|
||||
|
||||
This MCP server provides comprehensive coverage of the NetBox REST API v4.x:
|
||||
|
||||
- Full CRUD operations for all major models
|
||||
- Filtering and search capabilities
|
||||
- Special endpoints (available prefixes, available IPs)
|
||||
- Pagination handling (automatic)
|
||||
- Error handling with detailed messages
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
The server returns detailed error messages from the NetBox API, including:
|
||||
- Validation errors
|
||||
- Authentication failures
|
||||
- Not found errors
|
||||
- Permission errors
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- API tokens should be kept secure and not committed to version control
|
||||
- Use environment variables or the system config file for credentials
|
||||
- SSL verification is enabled by default
|
||||
- Consider using read-only tokens for query-only workflows
|
||||
|
||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Connection refused**: Check `NETBOX_API_URL` is correct and accessible
|
||||
2. **401 Unauthorized**: Verify your API token is valid
|
||||
3. **SSL errors**: Set `NETBOX_VERIFY_SSL=false` for self-signed certs (not recommended for production)
|
||||
4. **Timeout errors**: Increase `NETBOX_TIMEOUT` for slow connections
|
||||
|
||||
### Debug Mode
|
||||
|
||||
Enable debug logging:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
import logging
|
||||
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
1. Follow the existing code patterns
|
||||
2. Add tests for new functionality
|
||||
3. Update documentation for new tools
|
||||
4. Ensure compatibility with NetBox 4.x API
