Azure MCP Server

Overview

Azure MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: All Azure MCP tools to create a seamless connection between AI agents and Azure services. Because it speaks the Model Context Protocol, AI assistants can use Azure MCP Server as a set of callable tools instead of you copy-pasting between apps.

It runs locally: the npm package @azure/mcp speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. No credentials are required — it works out of the box. The current release is v3.0.0-beta.39, published under the MIT license, with source at microsoft/mcp on GitHub, where it has earned 3.6k stars.

On mcp.site, Azure MCP Server sits in the Cloud Service category. Any MCP client can use it — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed among them — via the install snippets below.
