Lists available worker groups in the Cribl deployment, optionally filtered by product type (stream, edge, search, or all).

Fetches pipeline definitions in a specified worker group.

Fetches source configurations in a specified worker group.

Retrieves full configuration JSON for a specified pipeline in a worker group.

Applies a new configuration payload to a specified pipeline in a worker group.

Restarts all workers within the default or specified worker group.

Retrieves system metrics from the Cribl deployment. IMPORTANT: To avoid excessively large responses, please use the optional parameters (filterExpr, metricNameFilter, earliest, latest, numBuckets, wp) to narrow down your query whenever possible. If no parameters are provided, the server will default to fetching only the most recent data bucket (numBuckets=1) to prevent performance issues.

Detects if version control (git) is enabled on the Cribl instance and whether a remote repository URL is configured.

Commits staged pipeline config changes to version control with a message. Returns detailed commit information including branch, commit ID, and summary of changed files.

Deploys a specific committed configuration version to a worker group. Returns the list of ConfigGroup objects Cribl provides.

Overview

What is Cribl MCP Server?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI interactions with the Cribl API. It allows AI clients to discover and invoke data operations from a Cribl deployment using standardised MCP tooling.

How to use Cribl MCP Server?

Run instantly via npx by setting the required environment variables (CRIBL_BASE_URL, CRIBL_AUTH_TYPE, CRIBL_CLIENT_ID, CRIBL_CLIENT_SECRET). For local development, clone the repo, install dependencies, and configure a .env file. Then connect an MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to the server to issue natural language prompts.
