AAP MCP Service
Red Hat ships a first-party Model Context Protocol server for Ansible Automation Platform. It is a Node.js service (Apache-2.0, github.com/ansible/aap-mcp-server) that reads the AAP component OpenAPI documents at start-up and generates one MCP tool per REST operation across five services — controller, gateway, eda, galaxy (Automation Hub) and lightspeed. It is NOT a Red Hat-hosted endpoint: the customer runs it against their own AAP installation, and it listens on their host (default http://localhost:3000/mcp). Red Hat also ships supported MCP Server builds as container images and RPMs with a published 12-month lifecycle.
One-click install for Cursor, VS Code, Claude, and 20+ other MCP clients, powered by API Commons MCP Install — visit install.apicommons.org for more information.

About MCP
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.
Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.
Work with this as data
Every MCP server here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
