A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for [RollDev](https://dockergiant.github.io/rolldev) + Magento 2 development environments. This server enables Claude and other LLMs to interact with RollDev projects, manage environments, execute commands, and initialize new Magento 2 projects seamlessly.
## Features
### Environment Management
- **Environment Control**: List, start, and stop RollDev project environments
- **Service Management**: Control RollDev system services (database, Redis, OpenSearch, etc.)
- **Project Initialization**: Create new Magento 2 projects with automatic configuration
### Development Tools
- **Database Operations**: Execute SQL queries directly in project databases
- **PHP Script Execution**: Run PHP scripts within project containers
- **Magento CLI Access**: Execute Magento commands through `roll magento`
- **Composer Integration**: Run Composer commands in project environments
### Reliability Features
- **Command Timeouts**: All commands have appropriate timeouts to prevent hanging (5-15 min depending on operation)
- **Output File Redirection**: Option to save command output to log files for later investigation
## Prerequisites
- [RollDev](https://rolldev.com) installed and configured
- Node.js 18+
- Active RollDev project environments (for some operations)
## Installation
### Option 1: Using NPM (Recommended)
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"rolldev": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@disrex/rolldev-mcp-server"
]
}
}
}
```
Add this configuration to your Claude for Desktop config file:
- **macOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
- **Windows**: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`
### Option 2: Manual Setup

```
2. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
3. Add to Claude configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"rolldev": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/rolldev-mcp-server/server.js"]
}
}
}
```

## Examples
Here are some example interactions you can try with Claude after setting up the RollDev MCP server:
### Basic Environment Management
1. "Can you list all my RollDev environments?"
2. "Start the project at /path/to/my-magento-project"
3. "Stop the services for my current project"
### Database Operations
4. "Run the query 'SELECT * FROM admin_user LIMIT 5' in my project"
5. "Show me all enabled modules in the database"
6. "Check the current configuration values for my store"
### Magento Development
7. "Execute 'cache:flush' Magento command in my project"
8. "Run 'setup:upgrade' on my Magento installation"
9. "List all available Magento CLI commands"
### Project Initialization
10. "Initialize a new Magento 2.4.7 project called 'my-store'"
11. "Create a Magento project with the latest version in /Users/dev/projects"
### Composer Operations
12. "Install dependencies with Composer in my project"
13. "Require the symfony/console package in my project"
### Output File Redirection
14. "Run setup:upgrade and save the output to a file for investigation"
15. "Execute composer install with output saved to a log file"
## Development
```bash
# Start in development mode with debugging
npm run dev
