netbox-mcp-server

Overview

This is a Model Context Protocol server that enables LLMs to interact with NetBox network infrastructure data in a read-only manner. It provides three main tools: retrieving objects by type, getting details by ID, and accessing change logs. The server is designed with simplicity in mind, being easy to set up and hard to misuse. It supports both stdio and HTTP transport protocols and can be used with Claude Desktop or Claude Code. The project is actively maintained with recent commits and clear documentation.
