Oracle Cloud MCP: Automate OCI infrastructure through AI agents

Oracle Cloud MCP is the official integration that connects AI agents like Claude and Cursor directly to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Instead of switching between terminals and the OCI console, you can now ask your AI assistant to provision instances, manage databases, handle storage, and configure security—all within your IDE or chat interface.

What It Does

This server bridges the gap between AI agents and OCI operations. It gives Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf read and write access to your OCI environment through the Model Context Protocol. Your AI can:

  • Compute: Spin up, terminate, and monitor compute instances with different shapes and configurations
  • Storage: Create and manage Object Storage buckets, upload objects, and handle lifecycle policies
  • Databases: Query Autonomous Database instances, manage DB systems, and inspect schemas
  • Networking: Inspect Virtual Cloud Networks (VCNs), review security lists, and audit firewall rules
  • Identity & Access: Create IAM users, attach policies, and manage permissions programmatically
  • Security & Compliance: Pull audit logs and generate security reports for governance

It's built for enterprise teams who run OCI and want to shift repetitive infrastructure tasks to AI automation.

How to Install

Install via npm:

npx -y @oracle/mcp
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Then add it to your Claude Desktop configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oracle-cloud-mcp": {
      "command": "npx -y @oracle/mcp",
      "env": {
        "OCI_CONFIG_FILE": "~/.oci/config",
        "OCI_PROFILE": "DEFAULT"
      }
    }
  }
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Make sure your OCI credentials are configured locally before connecting.

Real-World Use Cases

  • On-demand infrastructure scaling: Ask Claude to check current compute usage, then provision additional instances if load is high—all without leaving your editor
  • Database troubleshooting: Query Autonomous Database logs, inspect connection pools, and get optimization suggestions from your AI in real time
  • Audit and compliance: Generate security reports, review IAM policies, and pull audit logs to validate your infrastructure against compliance requirements
