This MCP server provides a natural language interface to the Terraform Cloud API, allowing you to manage infrastructure through conversation with AI assistants like Claude, Copilot Studio, and other MCP-compatible platforms.
uv
package manager (recommended) or pip
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/severity1/terraform-cloud-mcp.git
cd terraform-cloud-mcp
# Create virtual environment and activate it
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
# Install package
uv pip install .
# Add to Claude Code with your Terraform Cloud token
claude mcp add -e TFC_TOKEN=YOUR_TF_TOKEN -e ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=false -s user terraform-cloud-mcp -- "terraform-cloud-mcp"
To enable delete operations (use with caution):
claude mcp add -e TFC_TOKEN=YOUR_TF_TOKEN -e ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=true -s user terraform-cloud-mcp -- "terraform-cloud-mcp"
Create a configuration file at the appropriate location:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Add the following configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"terraform-cloud-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"/path/to/your/terraform-cloud-mcp",
"run",
"terraform-cloud-mcp"
],
"env": {
"TFC_TOKEN": "your_terraform_cloud_token",
"ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS": "false"
}
}
}
}
Replace /path/to/uv
with the actual path (find it with which uv
), and update the directory path and token.
ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=true
)ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=true
)ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=true
)The server includes several safety features:
ENABLE_DELETE_TOOLS=true
If you encounter issues:
To add this MCP server to Claude Code, run this command in your terminal:
claude mcp add-json "terraform-cloud-mcp" '{"command":"terraform-cloud-mcp","env":{"TFC_TOKEN":"${TFC_TOKEN}"}}'
See the official Claude Code MCP documentation for more details.
There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor. The most common way is to add the server globally in the ~/.cursor/mcp.json
file so that it is available in all of your projects.
If you only need the server in a single project, you can add it to the project instead by creating or adding it to the .cursor/mcp.json
file.
To add a global MCP server go to Cursor Settings > Tools & Integrations and click "New MCP Server".
When you click that button the ~/.cursor/mcp.json
file will be opened and you can add your server like this:
{
"mcpServers": {
"terraform-cloud-mcp": {
"command": "terraform-cloud-mcp",
"env": {
"TFC_TOKEN": "${TFC_TOKEN}"
}
}
}
}
To add an MCP server to a project you can create a new .cursor/mcp.json
file or add it to the existing one. This will look exactly the same as the global MCP server example above.
Once the server is installed, you might need to head back to Settings > MCP and click the refresh button.
The Cursor agent will then be able to see the available tools the added MCP server has available and will call them when it needs to.
You can also explicitly ask the agent to use the tool by mentioning the tool name and describing what the function does.
To add this MCP server to Claude Desktop:
1. Find your configuration file:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
2. Add this to your configuration file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"terraform-cloud-mcp": {
"command": "terraform-cloud-mcp",
"env": {
"TFC_TOKEN": "${TFC_TOKEN}"
}
}
}
}
3. Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect
