---
## ⚙️ Configuration
### Environment Variables
Create `.env` file in the project root:
```bash
# Core API Configuration (Required)
UNRAID_API_URL=https://your-unraid-server-url/graphql
UNRAID_API_KEY=your_unraid_api_key
# MCP Server Settings
UNRAID_MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http # streamable-http (recommended), sse (deprecated), stdio
UNRAID_MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0
UNRAID_MCP_PORT=6970
# Logging Configuration
UNRAID_MCP_LOG_LEVEL=INFO # DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR
UNRAID_MCP_LOG_FILE=unraid-mcp.log
# SSL/TLS Configuration
UNRAID_VERIFY_SSL=true # true, false, or path to CA bundle
# Optional: Log Stream Configuration
# UNRAID_AUTOSTART_LOG_PATH=/var/log/syslog # Path for log streaming resource
```
### Transport Options
| Transport | Description | Use Case |
|-----------|-------------|----------|
| `streamable-http` | HTTP-based (recommended) | Most compatible, best performance |
| `sse` | Server-Sent Events (deprecated) | Legacy support only |
| `stdio` | Standard I/O | Direct integration scenarios |
---
## 🛠️ Available Tools & Resources
Each tool uses a consolidated `action` parameter to expose multiple operations, reducing context window usage. Destructive actions require `confirm=True`.
### Tool Categories (10 Tools, 90 Actions)
| Tool | Actions | Description |
|------|---------|-------------|
| **`unraid_info`** | 19 | overview, array, network, registration, connect, variables, metrics, services, display, config, online, owner, settings, server, servers, flash, ups_devices, ups_device, ups_config |
| **`unraid_array`** | 12 | start, stop, parity_start/pause/resume/cancel/history, mount_disk, unmount_disk, clear_stats, shutdown, reboot |
| **`unraid_storage`** | 6 | shares, disks, disk_details, unassigned, log_files, logs |
| **`unraid_docker`** | 15 | list, details, start, stop, restart, pause, unpause, remove, update, update_all, logs, networks, network_details, port_conflicts, check_updates |
| **`unraid_vm`** | 9 | list, details, start, stop, pause, resume, force_stop, reboot, reset |
| **`unraid_notifications`** | 9 | overview, list, warnings, create, archive, unread, delete, delete_archived, archive_all |
| **`unraid_rclone`** | 4 | list_remotes, config_form, create_remote, delete_remote |
| **`unraid_users`** | 8 | me, list, get, add, delete, cloud, remote_access, origins |
| **`unraid_keys`** | 5 | list, get, create, update, delete |
| **`unraid_health`** | 3 | check, test_connection, diagnose |
### MCP Resources (Real-time Data)
- `unraid://logs/stream` - Live log streaming from `/var/log/syslog` with WebSocket subscriptions
> **Note**: MCP Resources provide real-time data streams that can be accessed via MCP clients. The log stream resource automatically connects to your Unraid system logs and provides live updates.

## 🏗️ Architecture
### Core Principles
- **Modular Design**: Separate concerns across focused modules
- **Async First**: All operations are non-blocking and concurrent-safe
- **Error Resilience**: Comprehensive error handling with graceful degradation
- **Configuration Driven**: Environment-based configuration with validation
- **Observability**: Structured logging and health monitoring
### Key Components
| Component | Purpose |
|-----------|---------|
| **FastMCP Server** | MCP protocol implementation and tool registration |
| **GraphQL Client** | Async HTTP client with timeout management |
| **Subscription Manager** | WebSocket connections for real-time data |
| **Tool Modules** | Domain-specific business logic (Docker, VMs, etc.) |
| **Configuration System** | Environment loading and validation |
| **Logging Framework** | Structured logging with file rotation |

## 🐛 Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**🔥 Port Already in Use**
```bash
# Kill existing process on port 6970, then restart
lsof -ti :6970 | xargs kill -9 2>/dev/null; uv run unraid-mcp-server
```
**🔧 Connection Refused**
```bash
# Check Unraid API configuration
curl -k "${UNRAID_API_URL}" -H "X-API-Key: ${UNRAID_API_KEY}"
```
**📝 Import Errors**
```bash
# Reinstall dependencies
uv sync --reinstall
```
**🔍 Debug Mode**
```bash
# Enable debug logging
export UNRAID_MCP_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
uv run unraid-mcp-server
```
### Health Check
```bash
# Use the built-in health check tool via MCP client
# or check logs at: logs/unraid-mcp.log
```
