Develocity MCP Server Installation Manual

The Develocity MCP Server connects AI tools directly to your Develocity instance, enabling AI agents to access build data, surface insights, and automate developer workflows.

The Develocity MCP Server is an extension and may not be enabled for your installation. Contact the Develocity support or your customer representative to enable this extension.

Enabling the MCP Server

The Develocity MCP Server is part of the Develocity Kubernetes Helm Chart. To enable the MCP Server, add the following property to your Develocity values.yaml:

values.yaml

mcpServer:
  enabled: true

You can inspect the status of the MCP Server Pods:

kubectl get pods -l app.kubernetes.io/component=mcp-server --namespace develocity

Output

NAME                         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
mcp-server-67bfcd7f6-t8kkn   1/1     Running   0          2m40s

You can verify that the MCP Server runs properly and is accessible by sending a curl request:

curl -X POST https://develocity.example.com/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "initialize",
    "params": {
      "protocolVersion": "2025-03-26",
      "capabilities": {},
      "clientInfo": {
        "name": "curl-client",
        "version": "1.0.0"
      }
    }
  }'

Output

   "jsonrpc":"2.0",
   "id":1,
   "result":{
      "protocolVersion":"2025-03-26",
      "capabilities":{
         "tools":{
            "listChanged":false
         }
      },
      "serverInfo":{
         "name":"develocity-mcp-server",
         "version":"2026.1.0"
      },
      "instructions":"Allows querying data from the Develocity server https://develocity.example.com"
   }
}
