Huly MCP Server

How to use

You connect MCP clients to the Huly MCP Server by configuring either the local stdio server or the HTTP transport so clients can issue commands and receive responses. The server exposes a wide set of tools to manage projects, issues, comments, milestones, documents, storage, attachments, contacts, channels, and more. Start the server with the appropriate transport, then point your MCP client to the local HTTP endpoint or to the standard in/out stream, depending on your workflow.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Node.js and npm or npx available on your system. The MCP server is run using the npx-based command shown in the examples.

# Standard local MCP server (stdio transport)

npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest
```

```
# HTTP transport (enable local HTTP endpoint on port 3000 by default)
MCP_TRANSPORT=http HULY_URL=https://huly.app \
[email protected] \
HULY_PASSWORD=yourpassword \
HULY_WORKSPACE=yourworkspace \
MCP_HTTP_PORT=3000 MCP_HTTP_HOST=127.0.0.1 npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest

Additional configuration and usage notes

HTTP transport defaults set up a local HTTP server at http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp. You can override the port and host with MCP_HTTP_PORT and MCP_HTTP_HOST. When using HTTP, include the Huly connection details through environment variables, and specify the workspace you will operate in. The server can expose a wide range of tool categories depending on your configuration and permissions.

Security considerations

Securely configure credentials for Huly access. Use API tokens or email/password combinations as described, and avoid exposing sensitive values in logs or plaintext configuration files. When using HTTP transport, restrict access to trusted networks or employ additional security controls as needed.

Troubleshooting tips

If you encounter connection issues, verify that MCP_TRANSPORT is set correctly for your chosen transport, the Huly URL, and workspace values are correct, and that the local HTTP endpoint is reachable. Check that the server process started without errors and that the environment variables are in place before launching.
