Kusto MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects to your Azure Data Explorer (Kusto) database, exposing table schemas as resources and providing tools for data analysis.

Features

• Connection to Kusto Database: Securely connects to your Azure Data Explorer environment using service principal or managed identity authentication.
• Schema Resources: Exposes table schemas and sample data as resources for AI assistants to understand your data structure.
• KQL Query Tools: Provides tools for running read-only KQL queries against your database.
• Data Analysis Tools: Pre-built tools for common data analysis tasks like time series analysis, anomaly detection, etc.
• Analysis Prompts: Includes prompt templates for guiding AI assistants in performing common data analysis tasks.

Setup Instructions

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18.0 or higher
• Access to an Azure Data Explorer (Kusto) database
• Proper authentication credentials (service principal or managed identity)

Installation

1. Clone this repository or navigate to the project directory
2. Install dependencies:

npm install

3. Create a .env file based on the example:

cp .env.example .env

4. Configure the environment variables in the .env file:

Integrating with MCP Clients

Using with Claude Desktop

1. Configure Claude Desktop to use this MCP server by adding it to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kusto-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "path/to/kusto-mcp-server/dist/index.js"
      ]
    }
  }
}

2. Start Claude Desktop and the server will automatically connect.

Using with Other MCP Clients

This MCP server uses the standard stdio transport, making it compatible with any MCP client that supports this transport.
