Argo CD

1. Log in to your Argo CD Web UI

   • Open your Argo CD instance in a browser. The URL will look like https://<ARGOCD_BASE_URL>/.

2. Navigate to "Settings" → "Accounts" or "User Info"

   • Once logged in, locate either the user dropdown menu or the “Settings”/“Accounts” section, depending on your Argo CD version and how authentication is configured.

3. Generate an API Token

   • If using the built-in admin account:
     1. Go to “Settings” (gear icon) > “Accounts”.
     2. Find the desired account (commonly “admin”).
     3. Click “Generate Token” or the equivalent action.
   • If using Single Sign-On or another account:
     1. Click your user avatar or name at the top right.
     2. Choose “Generate API Token” or open “User Info” > “Create Token”.

4. Copy the API Token

   • Copy the generated API token (“ARGOCD_API_TOKEN”).
   • You’ll need this for secure MCP server access.

5. Find Your Argo CD Base URL

   • Your base URL is typically the address you used to access the Argo CD UI—e.g., https://argocd.example.com.
   • This will be the value for “ARGOCD_BASE_URL”.

6. Open the FastMCP Connection Interface

   • Click the "Install Now" button or otherwise access the MCP server connection dialog in your tool (e.g., VS Code, Cursor, etc.).

7. Fill in the Environment Values

   • In the FastMCP connection interface, enter:
     • ARGOCD_BASE_URL: The Argo CD server URL (e.g., https://argocd.example.com)
     • ARGOCD_API_TOKEN: The API token you generated earlier

8. (Optional) For Self-Signed Certificates

   • If your server uses a self-signed certificate, add:
     • NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED with a value of 0 (use only if you understand the security implications).

9. Save and Connect

   • Finalize the setup and save your configuration in the FastMCP interface.

You can now interact with your Argo CD instance using your MCP client!
