MLflow MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables LLMs to interact with MLflow tracking servers. Query experiments, analyze runs, compare metrics, and explore the model registry - all through natural language.

Features

• Experiment Management: List and search experiments, discover available metrics and parameters
• Run Analysis: Retrieve run details, query runs with filters, find best performing models
• Metrics & Parameters: Get metric histories, compare parameters across runs
• Artifacts: Browse and download run artifacts
• Model Registry: Access registered models, versions, and deployment stages
• Comparison Tools: Side-by-side run comparisons, best run selection
• Tag-based Search: Filter runs by custom tags
• Pagination: Offset-based pagination for browsing large result sets

Installation

Using uvx (Recommended)

# Run directly without installation
uvx mlflow-mcp

# Or install globally
pip install mlflow-mcp

From Source

git clone https://github.com/kkruglik/mlflow-mcp.git
cd mlflow-mcp
uv sync
uv run mlflow-mcp

"Compare runs abc123 and def456"

"Which model has the highest F1 score?"

"Show me the training loss curve for run xyz789"

"List all production models in the registry"
