The ABAP Syntax Checker MCP Server is a tool designed to provide ABAP REPORT program syntax checking capabilities for IDEs like Claude Code and Kiro.

ABAP Syntax Checker MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides ABAP REPORT program syntax checking capabilities for IDEs like Claude Code and Kiro.

Overview

This MCP server connects to SAP ERP systems via RFC protocol to perform native ABAP syntax checking. It enables AI assistants to validate ABAP code without requiring direct access to SAP GUI.

Features

  • ✅ ABAP REPORT program syntax validation
  • ✅ Detailed error reporting with line numbers and descriptions
  • ✅ RFC-based communication with SAP ERP systems
  • ✅ Standard MCP protocol implementation
  • ✅ Comprehensive logging and error handling

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.9 or higher
  • SAP NetWeaver RFC SDK
  • Access to an SAP ERP system with appropriate credentials
  • pyrfc library (requires SAP NW RFC SDK)

Quick Start

  1. Install SAP NetWeaver RFC SDK (see detailed instructions in Installation section)
  2. Clone this repository: 
    git clone https://github.com/leocaogit/ABAP_CHECK_MCP.git
cd ABAP_CHECK_MCP
  3. Install Python dependencies: 
    pip install -r requirements.txt
  4. Configure SAP connection: 
    cp config/config.example.json config.json
# Edit config.json with your SAP credentials
  5. Deploy ABAP function module (see abap/DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md)
  6. Test the server: 
    python -m src.main --config config.json

Installation

1. Install SAP NetWeaver RFC SDK

The pyrfc library requires the SAP NetWeaver RFC SDK to be installed on your system.

Download:

Installation:

macOS:

# Extract the SDK
unzip nwrfc750P_8-70002752.zip -d /usr/local/sap

# Set environment variables (add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bash_profile)
export SAPNWRFC_HOME=/usr/local/sap/nwrfcsdk
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SAPNWRFC_HOME/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Linux:

# Extract the SDK
unzip nwrfc750P_8-70002752.zip -d /usr/local/sap

# Set environment variables (add to ~/.bashrc)
export SAPNWRFC_HOME=/usr/local/sap/nwrfcsdk
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SAPNWRFC_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Windows:

# Extract the SDK to C:\nwrfcsdk
# Add C:\nwrfcsdk\lib to your PATH environment variable

2. Install Python Dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Verify installation:

python -c "from pyrfc import Connection; print('pyrfc installed successfully')"

Configuration

The server can be configured using environment variables or a JSON configuration file.

Option 1: Environment Variables

Copy the example environment file and edit it with your SAP credentials:

cp config/.env.example .env

Edit .env:

# SAP RFC Connection Configuration
SAP_HOST=your-sap-host.example.com
SAP_SYSNR=00
SAP_CLIENT=100
SAP_USER=your-username
SAP_PASSWORD=your-password

# Logging Configuration (optional)
LOG_LEVEL=INFO

Option 2: Configuration File

Copy the example configuration file and edit it with your SAP credentials:

cp config/config.example.json config.json

Edit config.json:

{
  "rfc": {
    "host": "your-sap-host.example.com",
    "sysnr": "00",
    "client": "100",
    "user": "your-username",
    "password": "your-password"
  },
  "log_level": "INFO"
}

Security Note: Never commit files containing real credentials to version control.

Usage

Starting the MCP Server

Using a configuration file:

python -m src.main --config config.json

With custom log level:

python -m src.main --config config.json --log-level DEBUG

MCP Client Configuration

For Claude Desktop

Edit your Claude Desktop configuration file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "abap-syntax-checker": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "src.main", "--config", "config.json"],
      "cwd": "/absolute/path/to/ABAP_CHECK_MCP"
    }
  }
}
For Kiro

Create or edit .kiro/settings/mcp.json in your workspace:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "abap-syntax-checker": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "src.main", "--config", "config.json"],
      "cwd": "/absolute/path/to/ABAP_CHECK_MCP",
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": ["check_abap_syntax"]
    }
  }
}

Using the Tool

Once configured, the check_abap_syntax tool will be available in your IDE.

Example Usage:

Check this ABAP code for syntax errors:

REPORT ztest.
DATA: lv_test TYPE string.
lv_undefined = 'test'.
WRITE: / lv_test.

Response:

{
  "success": true,
  "has_errors": true,
  "errors": [
    {
      "line": 3,
      "type": "E",
      "message": "Field \"LV_UNDEFINED\" is unknown."
    }
  ],
  "message": "Syntax check completed with errors"
}

SAP Backend Setup

The MCP server requires an ABAP function module to be deployed in your SAP ERP system.

Quick deployment summary:

  1. Create structure ZSYNTAX_ERROR in SE11
  2. Create function group ZSYNTAX_CHECK in SE80
  3. Create function module Z_CHECK_ABAP_SYNTAX in SE37
  4. Copy implementation code and activate

Troubleshooting

RFC Connection Issues

Problem: Error: Cannot connect to SAP system

Solutions:

  • Verify SAP system is accessible from your network
  • Check credentials and client number are correct
  • Ensure SAP NetWeaver RFC SDK is properly installed
  • Check firewall settings for RFC ports

Syntax Check Errors

Problem: Function module Z_CHECK_ABAP_SYNTAX not found

Solutions:

  • Verify the ABAP function module is deployed (see abap/DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md)
  • Check the function module name is exactly Z_CHECK_ABAP_SYNTAX
  • Ensure the function module is activated in SE37
