CircleCI MCP Server — Hosted Devops Integration

mcp-circleci — CircleCI MCP Server

Monitor pipelines, trigger builds, and manage CI/CD workflows in CircleCI.

CircleCI is a leading continuous integration and delivery platform. This MCP server gives your AI agents the ability to list pipelines, inspect workflow and job status, retrieve build artifacts, trigger new pipelines, and cancel running workflows — enabling automated CI/CD observability and control from any agent.

Live endpoint: https://mcp.aerostack.dev/s/aerostack/mcp-circleci

What You Can Do

• Monitor pipeline status across projects — see which builds are passing, failing, or running
• Drill into workflow and job details to diagnose build failures without leaving your agent conversation
• Trigger new pipelines on specific branches with custom parameters for on-demand builds
• Cancel running workflows to stop wasted compute when a build is no longer needed
• Retrieve job artifacts (test reports, coverage files, binaries) programmatically

Setup

Step 1: Generate a CircleCI Personal API Token

1. Go to circleci.com and log in

Project Slugs

CircleCI identifies projects using a slug format: {vcs}/{org}/{repo}

• GitHub: gh/my-org/my-repo
• Bitbucket: bb/my-org/my-repo

Use this format for project_slug parameters in all tools.

Example Prompts

"List the last 5 pipelines for gh/acme/api-server and tell me if any are failing"
"Show me the jobs in the most recent workflow for pipeline abc-123 and check if tests passed"
"Trigger a new pipeline on the staging branch of gh/acme/api-server"
"Cancel workflow xyz-789 — we pushed a fix and need to re-run"
"Get the test artifacts from job 542 in gh/acme/api-server"
