📚 Documentation

Create a Service Principal

1. Log in to the Azure portal.
2. Click "More services" > "Azure Active Directory" in the top-right corner.
3. Select "Enterprise application registrations" in the left menu.
4. Click "New registration", fill in the application information, and create.
5. After creation, generate a new client secret in the "Certificates and secrets" section.

Example Command

az login --service-principal -u <CLIENT_ID> -p <CLIENT_SECRET> --tenant <TENANT_ID>

🔧 Technical Details

Project Structure

• server-azure.py: The main MCP server implementation with Azure CLI integration.
• create_service_principal.py: A utility script for creating an Azure service principal.
• main.py: Package entry point (placeholder).
• pyproject.toml: Project dependencies and configuration.
• .env: Environment variable configuration (not tracked in Git).

Error Handling

The server includes comprehensive error handling:

• JSON validation for all responses.
• Azure CLI error capture and formatting.
• Authentication error handling.
• Parameter validation.

Security Considerations

• Use service principal authentication.
• Support environment variable configuration for sensitive data.
• Implement appropriate authentication to prevent information leakage.
• Validate all input parameters.
