Install TrueNAS SCALE MCP server
No published package or hosted endpoint yet — see the repository README for build-from-source instructions.
Configuration
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| TRUENAS_MCP_TARGET | yes | — | TrueNAS host to manage, optionally `host:port`. Requires TrueNAS SCALE 25.04 or later. |
| TRUENAS_MCP_ALLOW_PLAINTEXT | — | — | Serve MCP without TLS. Set here because the listener is published on loopback only; drop it and supply TRUENAS_MCP_TLS_CERT/KEY if the port is reachable from elsewhere. |
| TRUENAS_MCP_TARGET_INSECURE | — | — | Accept the TrueNAS certificate unverified while keeping the connection encrypted. TrueNAS ships a self-signed certificate for `CN=localhost`, so no address you can reach it by will validate. |
| TRUENAS_MCP_ENABLE_WRITES | — | — | Expose the mutating tools. Read-only by default; unrecoverable operations stay unreachable either way. |
