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: Runs in the cloud
Transport: Streamable HTTP
Category: Developer tools
You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

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

Before you install

Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
You fill in yourself: Authorization

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

You need

Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

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.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http appcircle https://mcp.appcircle.io --header 'Authorization: your-value'

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

{

    "appcircle": {
      "url": "https://mcp.appcircle.io",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "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.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

Common questions

Is Appcircle MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 6 months 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?

Appcircle MCP Server

MCP server for Appcircle: exposes Build, Signing Identities, Testing Distribution, Enterprise App Store, Publish to Stores, and Reporting tools to any MCP-capable client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.). The Appcircle MCP Server acts as the bridge between AI tools and Appcircle; thus, AI agents, assistants and chatbots to safely access and interact with Appcircle resources through structured, governed, and task-level tools.

Use Cases

CI/CD and Workflow Intelligence: Monitor pipeline runs, track release status, and get insights into your mobile CI/CD workflows.
Configuration and Environment Insights: Query build configurations and signing setup to understand how a project is configured and where issues may originate.
Reporting and Operational Insights: Generate summaries of CI stability, recurring issues, pipeline performance, and overall CI/CD health.

Running Modes

You can use the MCP server in four ways:

Mode	Summary
1. Remote host	Connect to https://mcp.appcircle.io. No local install; your client sends your Appcircle token (e.g. `Authorization: Bearer` ) on each request.
2. Local (stdio)	Run the server from source: clone the repo, optionally use a venv, then run `appcircle-mcp` (default transport is stdio). Requires Python and pip. Set `APPCIRCLE_ACCESS_TOKEN` in the environment. Your MCP client runs the server as a subprocess.
3. Local (streamable-http)	Run the server locally over HTTP: use `--transport streamable-http` and optionally `--host` / `--port` (e.g. `appcircle-mcp --transport streamable-http --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000`). Clients connect to that URL and send their token in the request.
4. Local (Docker)	Run the official Docker image on your machine. Requires Docker. Use the image’s default port or override with `--port`; see the image documentation for exact usage.

Detailed client configuration (Cursor, Claude, etc.) lives in the dedicated installation guides; this section is a high-level summary only.

Configuration (Environment Variables)

Variable	Required	Description
`APPCIRCLE_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Yes (stdio only)	Appcircle API access token. Required when using stdio transport. For streamable-http, each client sends its own token. See Obtaining a token for how to get one.
`APPCIRCLE_API_URL`	No	API base URL (default: `https://api.appcircle.io` may differ for self-hosted users).
`APPCIRCLE_MCP_ALLOWED_HOST`	No (streamable-http only)	Public hostname for the MCP server (e.g. `mcp.appcircle.io`). Set this when deploying behind a reverse proxy so the server accepts the `Host` header from clients. Omit for localhost.
`APPCIRCLE_MCP_PORT`	No (streamable-http only)	Bind port for the HTTP server (default: `8000`). Overridden by `--port` if provided. Useful for on-prem or Docker when a specific port is required.
`LOG_LEVEL`	No	Logging level, e.g. `DEBUG`, `INFO` (default: `INFO`).
`APPCIRCLE_EXCLUDED_TOOLSETS`	No	Comma-separated toolsets to exclude (e.g. `build_module,report`). See Toolsets below.
`AC_MCP_ENABLE_WRITE_TOOLS`	No	Write/action tools (e.g. `trigger_build`, `cancel_build`) are registered by default. Set to `false`/`0`/`no`/`off` to opt out and not register them at all (not just disable at call time).

Set these in your shell or in your MCP client’s configuration.

Toolsets

Available Toolsets

The following sets of tools are available:

Toolset	Description
`build_module`	Build profiles, configurations, workflows, commits, and pipeline operations
`signing_identities`	Signing identities and bundle identifiers
`testing_distribution`	Testing distribution profiles and distribution details
`publish_to_stores`	Publish profiles and store publishing operations
`enterprise_app_store`	Enterprise app store profiles and store details
`report`	Reporting: build history, distribution, signing, publish status, and related reports

You can exclude one or more toolsets so their tools are not registered. Exclusions can be set via CLI arguments or the APPCIRCLE_EXCLUDED_TOOLSETS environment variable; both are merged (union).

CLI: --exclude toolset1 toolset2 or --exclude-toolsets toolset1,toolset2
Env: APPCIRCLE_EXCLUDED_TOOLSETS=build_module,report

Example MCP config (Cursor / Claude Desktop) with exclusions:

"mcpServers": { "appcircle": { "command": "appcircle-mcp", "args": ["--exclude", "report"] } } }

Tools are exposed via MCP tools/list. Reference below lists all tools by toolset; for response shape and examples see docs/tool_contract.md.
