Fortunto2 Prefect MCP Server

🚀 Pre-configured Prefect MCP Server

This repository provides a Prefect MCP server setup configured with the prefect-mcp-server package, and implements a reliable operation mechanism through uvx. This configuration is specifically designed for use with the Cursor IDE.

🚀 Quick Start

✨ Features

• Provides a pre-configured Prefect MCP server setup.
• Ensures reliable operation with uvx.
• Designed to work seamlessly with Cursor IDE.

📦 Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9 or higher.
• A preferred virtual environment tool (e.g., uv) for managing Python environments.
• Prefect 3 (see Prefect documentation for installation instructions).

Steps

Create and activate your virtual environment, then install the Prefect MCP server:

uv venv --python 3.12 && source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install -U prefect-mcp-server

💻 Usage Examples

Configuration

The server is configured via the .cursor/mcp.json file. The updated configuration is as follows:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prefect": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "prefect-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

This configuration ensures that the server uses the uvx command and works with the exact package version installed via uv pip install. This approach provides enhanced reliability and consistency in the development environment.

Environment Variables

Set the following environment variables to configure your Prefect environment. You can create a file named .env in the project root directory with the following content:

PREFECT_API_URL=http://localhost:4200/api

Additionally, set other environment variables, such as PREFECT_API_KEY, if needed, to authenticate with your Prefect server or Prefect Cloud.

Starting the Server

To start the server, you can run the following command:

uv run <script>

Alternatively, if you use the Cursor IDE and its configuration, the server will automatically invoke the command specified in .cursor/mcp.json.
