The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server provides a secure and controlled environment for executing system operations through various tool modes, enhancing DevOps workflows.
Stakpak Agent
The most secure agent built for operations & DevOps. Designed for the grittiest parts of software development with enterprise-grade security features including mutual TLS (mTLS) encryption, dynamic secret redaction, and privacy-first architecture.
🔒 Security Hardened
- Mutual TLS (mTLS) - End-to-end encrypted communication between agent components
- Dynamic Secret Redaction - AI can work with secrets without seeing actual values
- Secure Password Generation - Generate cryptographically secure passwords with configurable complexity
- Privacy Mode - Redacts sensitive data like IP addresses and AWS account IDs
🛠️ Built for DevOps Work
- Asynchronous Task Management - Run background commands like port forwarding and servers with proper tracking and cancellation
- Real-time Progress Streaming - Long-running processes (Docker builds, deployments) stream progress updates in real-time
- Infrastructure Code Indexing - Automatic local indexing and semantic search for Terraform, Kubernetes, Dockerfile, and GitHub Actions
- Documentation Research Agent - Built-in web search for technical documentation, cloud providers, and development frameworks
🧠 Adaptive Intelligence
- Rule Books - Customize agent behavior with internal standard operating procedures, playbooks, and organizational policies
- Persistent Knowledge - Agent learns from interactions, remembers incidents, resources, and environment details to adapt to your workflow

MCP Server Mode
Stakpak can run as an Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, providing secure and controlled access to system operations through different tool modes:
Tool Modes
- Local Mode (
--tool-mode local
) - File operations and command execution only (no API key required) - Remote Mode (
--tool-mode remote
) - AI-powered code generation and search tools (API key required) - Combined Mode (
--tool-mode combined
) - Both local and remote tools (default, API key required)
Start MCP Server
# Local tools only (no API key required, mTLS enabled by default)
stakpak mcp --tool-mode local
# Remote tools only (AI tools optimized for DevOps)
stakpak mcp --tool-mode remote
# Combined mode (default - all tools with full security)
stakpak mcp
# Disable mTLS (NOT recommended for production)
stakpak mcp --disable-mcp-mtls
