About CircleCI MCP

CircleCI's MCP servers (hosted and CLI) for diagnosing build failures, inspecting runs and managing CI pipelines from coding agents. Pricing, as the maker states it: Freemium. Maturity: Active. We last checked the official link on 2026-10-18.
What is CircleCI MCP?
CircleCI's MCP servers let coding agents diagnose build failures, inspect runs and manage CI pipelines through natural language without leaving the IDE. CircleCI offers a hosted MCP server at mcp.circleci.com and a CircleCI CLI MCP that runs locally with your CLI credentials.
The older local npm package (@circleci/mcp-server-circleci) is deprecated in favor of the hosted server and CLI MCP. Hosted tools cover listing runs, workflows and jobs, reading logs and tests, and rerunning or canceling workflows. The CLI MCP exposes the wider CircleCI CLI, including config authoring and orb tooling. Cloud plans listed on the docs page include Free, Performance and Scale.
