Common questions

Is MCP Victorialogs 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: VL_INSTANCE_ENTRYPOINT, VL_INSTANCE_BEARER_TOKEN

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 yesterday, and the latest version (1.9.0) reached the registry 7 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

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

What can I use instead?

VictoriaLogs MCP Server

The implementation of Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for VictoriaLogs.

This provides access to your VictoriaLogs instance and seamless integration with VictoriaLogs APIs and documentation. It can give you a comprehensive interface for logs, observability, and debugging tasks related to your VictoriaLogs instances, enable advanced automation and interaction capabilities for engineers and tools.

Features

This MCP server allows you to use almost all read-only APIs of VictoriaLogs, i.e. all functions available in Web UI:

Querying logs and exploring logs data
Showing parameters of your VictoriaLogs instance
Listing available streams, fields, field values
Query statistics for the logs as metrics
UI with setup instructions and tools inspection on the root endpoint (only in Streamable HTTP mode)

In addition, the MCP server contains embedded up-to-date documentation and is able to search it without online access.

More details about the exact available tools and prompts can be found in the Usage section.

You can combine functionality of tools, docs search in your prompts and invent great usage scenarios for your VictoriaLogs instance. And please note the fact that the quality of the MCP Server and its responses depends very much on the capabilities of your client and the quality of the model you are using.

You can also combine the MCP server with other observability or doc search related MCP Servers and get even more powerful results.

Try without installation

There is a publicly available instance of the VictoriaMetrics MCP Server that you can use to test the features without installing it:

https://play-vmlogs-mcp.victoriametrics.com/mcp

Attention! This URL is not supposed to be opened in a browser, it is intended to be used in MCP clients.

It's available in Streamable HTTP Mode mode and configured to work with Public VictoriaLogs Playground.

Here is example of configuration for Claude Desktop:

Requirements

VictoriaLogs instance: (single-node or cluster)
Go 1.26 or higher (if you want to build from source)

Installation

Go

go install github.com/VictoriaMetrics/mcp-victorialogs/cmd/mcp-victorialogs@latest

Binaries

Just download the latest release from Releases page and put it to your PATH.

Example for Linux x86_64 (note that other architectures and platforms are also available):

latest=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/VictoriaMetrics/mcp-victorialogs/releases/latest | grep 'tag_name' | cut -d\" -f4)

wget https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/mcp-victorialogs/releases/download/$latest/mcp-victorialogs_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz tar axvf mcp-victorialogs_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz

Docker

You can run VictoriaLogs MCP Server using Docker.

This is the easiest way to get started without needing to install Go or build from source.

docker run -d --name mcp-victorialogs \

-e VL_INSTANCE_ENTRYPOINT=https://play-vmlogs.victoriametrics.com \ -e MCP_SERVER_MODE=http \ -e MCP_LISTEN_ADDR=:8081 \ -p 8081:8081 \ ghcr.io/victoriametrics/mcp-victorialogs

You should replace environment variables with your own parameters.

Note that the MCP_SERVER_MODE=http flag is used to enable Streamable HTTP mode. More details about server modes can be found in the Configuration section.

See available docker images in github registry.

Also see Using Docker instead of binary section for more details about using Docker with MCP server with clients in stdio mode.

Source Code

For building binary from source code you can use the following approach:

Clone repo:

  git clone https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/mcp-victorialogs.git

cd mcp-victorialogs

- Build binary from cloned source code:

  make build

after that you can find binary mcp-victorialogs and copy this file to your PATH or run inplace

- Build image from cloned source code:

  docker build -t mcp-victorialogs .

after that you can use docker image mcp-victorialogs for running or pushing

Helm

Check out VictoriaLogs MCP Server Helm chart documentation for more details about installation using Helm.

Configuration

MCP Server for VictoriaLogs is configured via environment variables:

Variable	Description	Required	Default	Allowed values
`VL_INSTANCE_ENTRYPOINT`	URL to VictoriaLogs instance	Yes	-	-
`VL_INSTANCE_BEARER_TOKEN`	Authentication token for VictoriaLogs API	No	-	-
`VL_INSTANCE_HEADERS`	Custom HTTP headers to send with requests (comma-separated key=value pairs)	No	-	-
`MCP_PASSTHROUGH_HEADERS`	HTTP header names to forward from incoming MCP requests to VictoriaLogs (comma-separated list). Overrides `VL_INSTANCE_HEADERS` on collision. Only applies in `sse`/`http` modes.	No	-	-
`VL_DEFAULT_TENANT_ID`	Default tenant ID used when tenant is not specified in requests (format: `AccountID:ProjectID` or `AccountID`)	No	`0:0`	-
`MCP_SERVER_MODE`	Server operation mode. See Modes for details.	No	`stdio`	`stdio`, `sse`, `http`
`MCP_LISTEN_ADDR`	Address for SSE or HTTP server to listen on	No	`localhost:8081`	-
`MCP_DISABLED_TOOLS`	Comma-separated list of tools to disable	No	-	-

Modes

MCP Server supports the following modes of operation (transports):

stdio - Standard input/output mode, where the server reads commands from standard input and writes responses to standard output. This is the default mode and is suitable for local servers.
sse - Server-Sent Events. Server will expose the /sse and /message endpoints for SSE connections.
http - Streamable HTTP. Server will expose the /mcp endpoint for HTTP connections.

More info about transports you can find in MCP docs:
