⁠Image

docker pull vastdataorg/vast-admin-mcp:<version>

Use a release tag (e.g. 0.2.1) or latest per your policy.

⁠Quick start (CLI in Docker)

Mount the config directory so credentials and config.json persist on the host:

docker run --rm -it \
  -v ~/.vast-admin-mcp:/root/.vast-admin-mcp \
  vastdataorg/vast-admin-mcp:latest \
  vast-admin-mcp setup

docker run --rm -it \
  -v ~/.vast-admin-mcp:/root/.vast-admin-mcp \
  vastdataorg/vast-admin-mcp:latest \
  vast-admin-mcp list clusters

The repo includes vast-admin-mcp-docker.sh, docker-compose.yml, and Kubernetes manifests under deploy/kubernetes/ for HTTP mode and production-style deployments.

⁠MCP + read/write

• Default MCP mode is read-only suitable for safe exploration.
• Add mcp --read-write (or the equivalent in your MCP client config) when you intentionally enable create/update operations.

⁠HTTP and Kubernetes

• HTTP transport: run vast-admin-mcp mcp --transport http (see repo README for auth, TLS, and env vars such as VAST_ADMIN_MCP_AUTH_TOKEN).
• Kubernetes / OpenShift: see deploy/kubernetes/ and the guides in that directory.
