About
MCP server for Unraid API — provides tools to interact with an Unraid server's GraphQL API.
Security Report
The Python MCP server for Unraid has reasonable architecture with explicit authentication requirements and proper dependency management. However, there are notable concerns: sensitive credentials are passed via environment variables in the plugin configuration without explicit encryption mechanisms documented, the codebase includes obfuscated/minified WebAssembly and JavaScript assets (incus plugin) that cannot be audited for malicious patterns, and broad network permissions are granted without clear scoping by operation type. The code quality is generally good but the opaque binary assets and credential handling practices lower confidence. Supply chain analysis found 12 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 7 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

Security scores are indicators to help you make informed decisions, not guarantees. Always review permissions before connecting any MCP server.
Permissions Required
This plugin requests these system permissions. Most are normal for its category.

Unraid
A monorepo of Unraid tooling: two MCP servers (Python and Rust) and three Unraid OS plugins, plus the Claude/Codex agent integrations that surface them.
Repo name. This repo was renamed
unraid-mcp→unraidon 2026-07-27, and the former standalonerunraidandincus-unraidrepos were merged in here. The old GitHub name still redirects, so existing plugin install/update URLs keep working. The PyPI package, the container image, the Claude plugin, and the Unraid.plgare all still namedunraid-mcp— only the repo changed.
Components
| Path | What it is | Toolchain | Build / test |
|---|---|---|---|
unraid-py/ | unraid-mcp — Python MCP server (GraphQL), the flagship. Published to PyPI as unraid-mcp. | Python / uv / hatchling | cd unraid-py && uv run pytest && uv build --wheel |
unraid-rs/ | runraid — Rust MCP server + CLI (single static binary). Crate unraid-rmcp on crates.io, plus a legacy npm wrapper of the same name. | Rust / cargo | cd unraid-rs && cargo fmt --check && cargo clippy --all-targets --features test-support -- -D warnings && cargo test |
plugins/mcp/ | Unraid OS plugin that ships the Python MCP server onto an Unraid box. | shell .plg + Python | bash plugins/mcp/scripts/build-txz.sh <ver> <wheel> |
plugins/incus/ | Unraid OS plugin running Incus system containers ("dev containers") firewalled off the LAN. Includes a NestJS/GraphQL unraid-api backend. | shell .plg + NestJS/Vue | cd plugins/incus && ./scripts/verify-classic-package.sh && ./tests/classic-contract.sh |
plugins/codex/ | Unraid OS plugin embedding a Codex chathead app-server. | shell .plg + React | cd plugins/codex && ./tests/contract.sh |
agents/unraid-py/ | Claude Code / Codex plugin (name: unraid-mcp) for the Python server. | — | — |
agents/unraid-rs/ | Claude Code / Codex plugin (name: runraid) for the Rust server. | — | — |
Install the agent plugins (one marketplace command, two manifests)
/plugin marketplace add dinglebear-ai/unraid
/plugin install unraid-mcp@unraid-mcp # Python server
/plugin install runraid@unraid-mcp # Rust server
The @unraid-mcp suffix is the marketplace name declared in
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json, not the repo name — it stays unraid-mcp even
though the repo is now dinglebear-ai/unraid.
Both plugins are published from a single repo. Claude reads
.claude-plugin/marketplace.json; Codex reads .agents/plugins/marketplace.json.
meta-ci.yml asserts the two list the same plugin set, so they cannot drift.
marketplace add accepts the owner/repo shorthand (or a full git URL / local
path). After install, Claude Code prompts for the connection settings (the
plugin's userConfig).
Plugin credentials need no manual step
The agent plugins ship no Claude Code hooks, and none are needed: both
.mcp.json files map your plugin settings into the server environment directly
via ${user_config.*}. agents/unraid-rs wires 10 keys (endpoint, API key, TLS
skip, bearer token, four OAuth vars); agents/unraid-py wires UNRAID_API_URL
and UNRAID_API_KEY. Set them in plugin settings and the server picks them up on
next launch.
Optional, for non-plugin installs (systemd, Docker) that want ~/.unraid/.env
written to disk:
runraid setup plugin-hook # or: crgx unraid-rmcp -- setup plugin-hook
unraid-py quickstart (Python MCP server)
The Python server is the flagship. Full documentation — installation, Claude
Code / Codex / Gemini setup, configuration, authentication, guardrails, and the
tool surface — lives in unraid-py/README.md and
unraid-py/docs/. It publishes to PyPI as unraid-mcp (import
package unraid_mcp) and launches with uvx unraid-mcp.
unraid-rs quickstart (Rust MCP server + CLI)
cd unraid-rs && cargo build --release # → target/release/runraid
runraid setup plugin-hook # writes ~/.unraid/.env
runraid array # CLI
runraid serve mcp # MCP over HTTP on :40010
| Env var | Purpose |
|---|---|
UNRAID_API_URL | Unraid GraphQL endpoint (required) |
UNRAID_API_KEY | x-api-key for the Unraid API (required) |
UNRAID_API_SKIP_TLS_VERIFY | Accept a self-signed Unraid cert (default false) |
UNRAID_RMCP_HOST / UNRAID_RMCP_PORT | MCP bind address (default 0.0.0.0:40010) |
UNRAID_RMCP_TOKEN | Static bearer token for /mcp |
UNRAID_RMCP_AUTH_MODE | bearer (default) or oauth |
Full list and the OAuth variables: unraid-rs/CLAUDE.md.
Not read-only. The Rust server exposes both queries and mutations. Read actions
need the unraid:read scope; mutating actions (VM and Docker lifecycle, array
start/stop, notification writes) need unraid:admin.
Releases
There are two release lanes. release-please manages only unraid-py and
unraid-rs — the Python server keeps unprefixed vX.Y.Z tags (the existing
audience's scheme) and Rust uses unraid-rs-vX.Y.Z. The Incus and Codex plugins
do not use release-please: they are versioned by
.github/scripts/plugin_calver.py with fixed-width YYYYMMDD.NNN versions and
incus-v* / codex-v* tags (Unraid compares plugin versions as raw strings, so the
fixed width is mandatory).
Plugin .txz payloads ship as GitHub release assets, never tracked in git.
