Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

AI observability, explainability and governance: drift, fairness, ISO 42001, risk register.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Computer or cloud
  • Transport: stdio, Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Developer tools
  • You need to fill in: WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY, X-WhiteBox-API-Key, Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 3 of 3 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY, WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_BASE_URL, X-WhiteBox-API-Key, Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet
  • PyPIPython’s uv installed (for the uvx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Or run it on your computer

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whiteboxxai": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "whiteboxxai-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http whiteboxxai https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/ --header 'X-WhiteBox-API-Key: your-value' --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Or run it on your computer

claude mcp add whiteboxxai --env WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY=your-value --env WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_BASE_URL=your-value -- uvx whiteboxxai-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whiteboxxai": {
      "url": "https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-WhiteBox-API-Key": "your-value",
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whiteboxxai": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "whiteboxxai-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "whiteboxxai": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-WhiteBox-API-Key": "your-value",
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Common questions

Is WhiteBoxXAI safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY, X-WhiteBox-API-Key, Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.3.2) reached the registry 11 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP

whiteboxxai-mcp

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes WhiteBoxXAI observability and explainability capabilities — model registry, Git-backed model diffing, prediction logging, drift detection, bias/fairness auditing, ISO/IEC 42001 readiness and compliance evidence, AI Risk Register / governance review queries, prompt governance, asynchronous SHAP/LIME explanation generation, LLM explainability (attention/token-importance/sensitivity/counterfactual analysis and prompt debugging), LLM call monitoring (token/cost/latency tracking), RAG pipeline monitoring, content safety analysis, alert rules and triage context, alert intelligence, alert management, multi-agent workflow tracking, and model performance metrics (197 tools across 18 domains) — to any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, LangChain, custom agent harnesses, etc.). Supports MCP Apps (ui:// resources) with sandboxed interactive audit cards, stdio transport, and Streamable HTTP transport (hosted at https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/).

See the integration docs for full setup, connection examples, the tool reference, and known v1 limitations. See examples/ for runnable LangChain, Semantic Kernel, and raw-MCP-client integrations.

Install

pip install whiteboxxai-mcp

Run (stdio — local/self-hosted)

Configure a credential via environment variables, then run the console script. Stdio transport authenticates via WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY:

# An API key generated from the WhiteBoxXAI dashboard's Settings > API Keys tab.

Never expires on a fixed schedule -- only when explicitly revoked -- and doesn't require storing a password.

export WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_BASE_URL="https://api.whiteboxxai.com" export WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY="wbx_live_..."

whiteboxxai-mcp

Point your MCP client at this command (e.g. in Claude Desktop's mcpServers config, or Claude Code's .mcp.json).

For hosted Streamable HTTP (https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/), pass your API key or personal JWT in the Authorization: Bearer header.

Agent skills

To have a coding agent set this up and call the tools correctly, give it the whitebox-mcp-server skill (and whitebox-governance-rules). They are published at https://whiteboxxai.com/skills/index.md. The tool list they reference is pinned in tests/mcp_inspector_snapshot.json; a rename or removal of a tool shows up as a diff there.

Versioning & support

This package follows Semantic Versioning; see CHANGELOG.md for release history. Self-hosted stdio usage (above) is best-effort supported; the hosted /mcp/ HTTP endpoint is a product surface whose support/SLA follows the caller's underlying Free/Business Cloud plan.

Known v1 limitations

  • Auth: stdio uses WHITEBOXXAI_MCP_API_KEY — a scoped, revocable credential that isn't tied to a human account's password or session lifecycle. Hosted Streamable HTTP (https://api.whiteboxxai.com/mcp/) accepts an API key or personal JWT.
  • Alerts: covers core alert rules and triage context (whitebox_alerts_*), alert intelligence (whitebox_alert_intelligence_*, 20 tools), and alert management (whitebox_alert_management_*, 13 tools).
  • `whitebox_agent_workflows_cost_breakdown`/`_bottlenecks`/`_timeline`: these three can take up to ~30s — the backend blocks server-side on a Celery task before responding, and the SDK client uses an extended (40s) timeout for exactly these calls.
  • Scope: models, predictions, drift, bias/fairness, AI Risk Register / governance queries, prompts, compliance, explanations, LLM explainability, LLM call monitoring, RAG monitoring, content safety, alert intelligence, alert management, multi-agent workflows, and metrics all ship across 18 domains (197 tools total) over both stdio and hosted Streamable HTTP.

MCP Registry

The server is published to the official MCP Registry as io.github.AgentaFlow/whiteboxxai-mcp.

Development

pip install -e ".[dev]"

pytest tests/unit

MCP Inspector tool-list regression check (needs Node.js); after an intentional

tool change, regenerate the committed snapshot with --write

python tests/check_mcp_inspector_snapshot.py
