The mcp-server-openmetadata project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that wraps OpenMetadata's REST API, enabling MCP clients to interact with OpenMetadata in a standardized, vendor-agnostic way. It maps MCP operations to OpenMetadata resources, exposing endpoints for core data entities (tables, databases, databaseSchemas) as well as data assets (dashboards, charts, pipelines, topics, metrics, containers, reports, mlmodels). The server also covers users and teams, governance artifacts (classifications, glossaries, glossary terms, tags), system operations (bots, services, events), and analytics (lineage, usage, search). API groups can be enabled or disabled at runtime via the --apis CLI option, facilitating focused deployments. The project supports installation via Smithery and configuration through environment variables (OPENMETADATA_HOST and either JWT tokens or basic credentials). It can run manually with python src/server.py or be integrated with Claude Desktop using uv/uvx runners, with examples provided for token and basic authentication. The design emphasizes a straightforward bridge between MCP clients and OpenMetadata, offering comprehensive coverage of resources via a consistent MCP surface.
