Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

MCP server for KeyCloak Admin REST API via Service Account

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: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • 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 …”.

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "keycloak": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "keycloak-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add keycloak -- uvx keycloak-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "keycloak": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "keycloak-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

{
  "servers": {
    "keycloak": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "keycloak-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is KeyCloak 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.5.1) reached the registry 17 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

keycloak-mcp

English | 日本語

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the KeyCloak Admin REST API.

Documentation: https://shigechika.github.io/keycloak-mcp/

Authenticates via a Service Account (Client Credentials Grant), so no human password or TOTP is involved. Also Infinispan-safe — it never creates user sessions and never hits the userinfo endpoint.

Features

Users
ToolDescription
count_usersTotal user count in the realm
search_usersPartial-match search (username / email / name)
get_userFull detail for an exact username
reset_passwordReset one user's password
reset_passwords_batchBulk reset from CSV (username,password per line; blank password is generated)
get_user_sessionsActive sessions for one user, timestamps in local time
logout_userKill all active sessions for one user
set_user_enabledEnable or disable one user; disabling blocks all logins (custom attributes preserved)
MFA / Credentials
ToolDescription
get_user_credentialsCredential types configured for one user; an otp entry means TOTP/HOTP is set up
get_totp_usersRealm-wide TOTP adoption: how many users have an otp credential, with percentage and (optionally) the user list. Enumerates users and reads each one's credentials (N+1; bound with max_users)
Groups
ToolDescription
list_user_groupsWhich groups a user belongs to
list_users_by_groupMembers of a group
Security
ToolDescription
get_brute_force_statusWhether a user is currently locked by brute-force detection
get_realm_security_defensesRealm-level security policy: whether brute-force detection is enabled and its thresholds, the password policy, and browser security headers
get_config_changesWhat changed in the realm configuration since a stored daily snapshot (see *Configuration snapshots*). Read-only; baseline_date picks an older snapshot.
get_login_failures_by_ipFailure breakdown by source IP (site-labeled when KEYCLOAK_SITES_INI is set)
get_ip_activityExhaustive investigation of one source IP: success/failure counts, affected users/clients, timeline. Returns structured JSON.
spray_checkPassword-spray detection with the breach list built in: every external IP with ≥ 10 distinct users and < 20 % login success is a spray source, and its successful logins (evidence tuple time / ip / username / user_id / client_id) are the breach candidates. Each row carries a confidence: high is a breach verdict; low means the volume rule fired on a shared egress (school NAT, home line, VDI) — signalled by user_success_rate (distinct users that logged in ÷ distinct users, ≥ 0.2), failure_concentration (share of failures on one username, ≥ 0.5) or a KEYCLOAK_KNOWN_EGRESS match — and the logins are to be verified with the owner, not published. top_failed_users and not_found_domains show who kept failing and which mistyped domains produced user_not_found. Fixed-shape JSON, complete: false when the window was truncated.
detect_login_loopsFlag users who logged in too many times in a short window (redirect loops)
Events
ToolDescription
get_eventsFilter by type, username, client, IP, and date range. Username is resolved to user ID internally. Failure events include KeyCloak's error field (e.g. invalid_user_credentials).
get_login_statsLogin success/failure totals, paginated across all results
get_login_stats_by_hourLogins bucketed by hour of day (local time)
get_login_stats_by_clientLogins bucketed by client / SP
get_password_update_eventsUPDATE_PASSWORD history
Admin Events

get_events only sees *user* events. Actions driven by an admin — or by a service account writing custom attributes — don't show up there. The admin-event endpoint fills that gap.

ToolDescription
get_admin_eventsFilter by operation (CREATE / UPDATE / DELETE / ACTION), resource type (USER / CLIENT / ROLE / GROUP / …), resource path, and date range
get_user_attribute_historyUPDATE/ACTION events scoped to one user — handy for tracking when a custom attribute (e.g. provisioning_flag) was written by an automated pipeline

Both tools accept max_repr to control the representation payload: positive = truncate to N chars (default 500), 0 = omit, negative = include in full.

Sessions & Clients
ToolDescription
get_session_statsActive session count per client
get_client_sessionsActive sessions for one client (SP)
list_clientsSAML and OIDC clients in the realm
get_clientOne client's configuration, including its authentication flow overrides (the per-SP MFA switch). Omits attributes and protocolMappers, so no client secret or SAML signing material reaches tool output.
get_realm_rolesRealm-level roles
Morning Patrol
ToolDescription
health_checkReport the running server version and verify the KeyCloak backend is reachable and the service account can authenticate. Lightweight (one token request; no user/event/session scans). Returns a fixed-shape dict with status, auth, and the configured URL/realm. The tool's own description enumerates the values those fields can take, and is the one place that does.
daily_briefOne-shot morning health check: login stats, brute-force IPs, spray check (same rule as spray_check, with breached accounts and evidence), active sessions, password updates, admin events, and configuration changes (admin events on roles, role mappings, flows, client scopes, protocol mappers, components and the realm, plus the snapshot comparison when KEYCLOAK_STATE_DIR is set; both are flagged [CONFIG]), and additions to groups that carry roles (flagged [PRIVILEGE] when the group grants a realm-management role other than the read-only query-*/view-*) in a single Markdown summary. IPs exceeding ip_failure_threshold failures (default 50) and spray sources are flagged WARNING; API errors surface as CRITICAL. since_hours controls the look-back window (default 18 h).

Configuration

VariableDescriptionDefault
KEYCLOAK_URLBase URL, e.g. https://keycloak.example.com*required*
KEYCLOAK_REALMRealm namemaster
KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_IDService Account client ID*required*
KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_SECRETClient secret*required*
KEYCLOAK_SITES_INIINI file for IP-to-site labeling (see below)*unset*
KEYCLOAK_KNOWN_EGRESSComma-separated CIDRs of known shared egress points (VDI, VPN concentrators, partner proxies). spray_check labels matching IPs known_egress: true and marks them confidence: low; they are never excluded*unset*
KEYCLOAK_DEFAULT_DATE_FROM_HOURSDefault look-back window for event tools when date_from is omitted. Set to 0 to scan full history (can hang on large realms).24
KEYCLOAK_DEADLINEPer-call wall-clock budget (seconds) for the heavy event/TOTP tools. When a wide window / large realm would exceed it, the tool stops and returns a disclosed partial (⚠️ warning) instead of running past the client's ~60s gateway timeout and hammering KeyCloak. Each request's timeout is also capped at the time left, and nothing is retried past the deadline, so one slow page cannot run a call past it. 0 or negative disables.45
KEYCLOAK_MAX_EVENTSPer-pagination cap on events fetched by the event tools (also bounds how deep the slow high-offset pagination goes). Over the cap the result is a disclosed partial. 0 or negative disables.200000
KEYCLOAK_MAX_USERSDefault cap on users scanned by get_totp_users when its max_users argument is 0 (each user costs one credential call). 0 or negative disables (whole realm, bounded only by KEYCLOAK_DEADLINE).5000
KEYCLOAK_USER_ATTRIBUTE_WHITELISTComma-separated custom user-attribute keys that get_user is allowed to surface. Unset by default: get_user only ever returns username/name/email/enabled/created, since the search endpoint it resolves the username through returns a brief representation with no attributes at all. Opting a key in makes get_user do one extra by-ID lookup and append that attribute's value when present. Everything else stays out of tool output. As a safety net, a whitelisted key whose name looks credential-shaped (contains password, secret, token, etc.) is reported as blocked rather than shown — not a guarantee, since a credential attribute named outside that pattern list still gets through.*unset*
KEYCLOAK_GROUP_WRITE_ROOTEnables the opt-in group-change tools (plan_group_changes, apply_group_changes) and confines them to groups below this absolute path (e.g. /Staff). Unset, empty or malformed: the two tools are not registered at all. Set it only on a deployment that puts a human approval step in front of the server.*unset*
KEYCLOAK_PROTECTED_GROUPS;-separated full group paths that the group-change tools refuse to add to or remove from (descendants included). A malformed entry disables the group-change tools rather than silently dropping the protection.*unset*
KEYCLOAK_GROUP_BATCH_MAXMaximum rows per group-change call.30
KEYCLOAK_GROUP_MODEmulti (KeyCloak's default: a user can be in many groups) or single for a deployment where adding a group replaces every other membership (for example an event listener that keeps one group per user). Any other value disables the group tools. See *Group changes*.multi
KEYCLOAK_STATE_DIRDirectory for the daily configuration snapshots ( /config-snapshots, created 0700, files 0600). Unset: no snapshots; daily_brief still reports configuration admin events. See *Configuration snapshots*.*unset*
KEYCLOAK_GROUP_DEADLINETime budget (seconds) for the group-change tools. A batch of 30 users needs more than the default 45 s; raise it where nothing with a ~60 s timeout sits in front of the server (for example a client that spawns it directly). Unset: KEYCLOAK_DEADLINE.*unset*
KEYCLOAK_SESSION_PROBESSeparate connections whose session listings get_user_sessions (and the remaining-session count of set_user_enabled) merges. Behind a load balancer, KeyCloak nodes that do not share user sessions (no distributed Infinispan cache) each list only their own.8
KEYCLOAK_LOGOUT_CLEAN_PROBESlogout_user keeps probing — each probe on its own connection lists the sessions and logs the user out on the node it reached when that node lists a session — until this many probes in a row see no session. The first probe sends the logout even when it lists nothing: it also sets the user's notBefore in the database, which all nodes check, and the tool reports it. Which node a new connection reaches is up to the load balancer: under source-IP affinity the probes may never reach some node, so notBefore is the effect that holds on every node. Where sessions are shared, set this and KEYCLOAK_SESSION_PROBES to 1.10

| KEYCLOAK_LOGOUT_MAX_PROBES | Upper bound on logout_user probes; if sessions are still seen at the bound, the tool says so (⚠️) instead of reporting success. The probes, like the session listings of get_user_sessions and set_user_enabled, are bounded by `KEYCLOAK_DEA
