FAQ

Does this server support self-signed certificates?

Yes, you can set the environment variable NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0 to disable TLS certificate validation for self-signed certificates or certificates from private CAs. Note that this reduces security and should only be used in development or when you understand the security implications.

Can I run the server in read-only mode?

Yes, set the environment variable MCP_READ_ONLY=true to disable resource or application modification tools like create_application, update_application, delete_application, sync_application, and run_resource_action.
