# Okareo MCP Server

The Okareo MCP server exposes Okareo's evaluation capabilities as MCP tools, allowing AI coding assistants to create and manage scenarios, register models, run evaluations, and execute multi-turn simulations directly from your editor.

For detailed documentation, see the [Okareo MCP docs](https://docs.okareo.com/docs/mcp/introduction).

## Prerequisites

- An Okareo account at [app.okareo.com](https://app.okareo.com)
- A copilot that supports MCP servers (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, or GitHub Copilot), or Slackbot in Slack
- Python 3.10–3.12 (only for the local install modes; not needed for remote)

---

## Remote MCP (hosted) — recommended

The fastest way to get started. No local install, no Python, no API key in `.mcp.json`. Browser sign-in handles auth on first connect.

### Recommended (OAuth — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code 1.101+)

Add to your copilot's MCP config (typically `.mcp.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "okareo": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tools.okareo.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Reload the copilot. It will open a browser to Okareo sign-in once; thereafter the copilot stores the token itself. Your `.mcp.json` contains no secrets.

### Fallback (Bearer header — older clients or headless / CI)

For clients that haven't shipped the MCP OAuth flow yet, paste your API key as a bearer header. Prefer the env-var form over an inline literal:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "okareo": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tools.okareo.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:OKAREO_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

GitHub Copilot (in VS Code and the Copilot CLI), Slackbot and every other client are set up at [docs.okareo.com/mcp/configuration](https://docs.okareo.com/mcp/configuration).

### Working across multiple Okareo organizations

If you have access to more than one Okareo account, simply `Clear Authentication` and then re-authenticate with the account you want to work in. You can always ask which account your are in and have acccess to.

## Local install (alternative)

Run the MCP server on your own machine. Useful for offline / airgapped environments and for development.

> Prefer the **[Remote MCP](#remote-mcp-hosted--recommended)** section above unless you have a specific reason to install locally (airgapped, custom build, development on this repo). The remote endpoint requires no install and stays current automatically.

For multi-org users, the remote endpoint also exposes [tenant management tools](docs/remote-mcp.md#tenants--working-across-multiple-okareo-organizations) (`list_tenants`, `switch_tenant`).

### Step 1: Set Your API Key

```bash
export OKAREO_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Add this to your `~/.zshrc` or `~/.bash_profile` for persistence.

### Step 2: Configure Your Copilot

#### Claude Code

Add to `.mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "okareo": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["okareo-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OKAREO_API_KEY": "${OKAREO_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

No pre-install needed — `uvx` handles it automatically.

#### Cursor

Add to `.cursor/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "okareo": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["okareo-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor inherits `OKAREO_API_KEY` from your shell environment.

#### Alternative: pip install

If you don't have `uv` installed:

```bash
pip install okareo-mcp
```

Then use `"command": "okareo-mcp"` instead of `"command": "uvx"` with `"args": ["okareo-mcp"]`.

### Simulations (Multi-Turn)

| Tool | Description |

| `unarchive_project` | Restore an archived project to the picker |
| `clone_project` | Copy an existing project's scenarios into a new project (dry-run first) |

> Okareo has no project **delete** — in the app, the API, or here. Archiving is
> the removal, and it only hides the project from the picker: its scenarios,
> runs, and dashboards stay intact and every tool still works against it.

### Analytics & Dashboards

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---------|-------|-----|
| `okareo-mcp: command not found` | Not installed or not in PATH | Run `pip install -e .` (dev) or use `uvx okareo-mcp` (user) |
| Server exits with API key error | `OKAREO_API_KEY` not set | Export it: `export OKAREO_API_KEY="..."` |
| `pip install` fails on Python 3.13+ | Okareo SDK requires Python <3.13 | Use Python 3.10–3.12 |
| Copilot can't connect (Docker) | Wrong URL | Ensure URL ends with `/sse` and port matches |
| Cursor doesn't pick up API key | Cursor launched from Dock, not terminal | Launch Cursor from terminal: `cursor .` |
